Make sure to launch the game from Steam (in case you had installed an independent build earlier). Verify the version number in the main menu displays 1.828.

Maybe they roll out updates in stages? Not sure why that would happen. Try this:

Right click on the game in your library > click on Properties > click on the Local Files tab > click on Verify Integrity of Game Cache

Then see if the update is received.

steam is slow and won't be able to update as quickly as Vice makes changes. No offense to steam, but Vice is really one his game 24/7.

If needed, you can install the direct download version and run it independently until your Steam build updates.
