CD keys code not working?

[Jasandjules]

Anyone had this happen to them?

Bought five games, 4 worked fine and are now in the library for Steam but Far Cry 5 the code said not valid?!!?

It's an ubisoft game, you might need to use the key in the ubisoft launcher rather than steam.

You are a star, I have just clicked on the how to download section and it says just that, download the Ubisoft thing instead. I had assumed they were all just steam codes as 4 out of 5 games were.

Thank you

Don't forget to get the Epic store they have free games ( some really decent ) on a regular basis.

I've just checked and I have 222 in my account ! Only paid for one !

Also if you have Amazon check out Amazon Games ...

Never heard of Epic but have bookmarked it, thank you very much!

You'll probably want gaming.amazon.com as well for some free games / add-ons (if you're a Prime member).

Don't forget about the 'always DRM-free' GOG.com - as there are usually some CD-Keys codes for them too.

Got Starfield now, suspect that is me sorted for a while....

Didn't suggest you play It, just surprised you hadn't heard of one of the biggest publishers in the world

Ah I see, nope not a clue... But then I have been a playstation person for 20 years and the only reason I have a gaming PC is Starfield (and in time Fallout 5, Skyrim 2 etc). I only play the odd online game (mainly Battlefield with mates)..
