Why is my key revoked?

[vvvddd]

I purchased this game (Occupy Mars: The Game) and play 135 hours and i just got this 'Account alert' ?

Your Steam key activation has been revoked by the publisher of the game, because a pre-release beta or test period has ended. The content associated with this Steam key can no longer be used as a result.

If the developer has already released a coming soon page or launched the product, you’ll be able to find it on their Steam Store page.

recently we discovered that a bunch of codes which were sent to youtubers were illegally sold on sites with stolen keys and only those were revoked

there's no way to revoke if somebody bought directly on Steam, but looks like your key was obtained from some other source

if you have they key you can send it to me via PM and I can verify what was the original source of the key

Kinguin sells stolen keys.
For example a youtuber / streamer received a free key, never made a video, so he cheated us, instead he sold the key which he got for free.

We have no way to pursue pirates or people selling free keys, the only thing we can do is we have a list of people who got the free keys from us and we just went through that list one by one and checked who made a video and turned out about 150 youtube channels from this list were already gone (most likely banned by youtube due to fake subscribers) so those were the only keys we revoked.

So we have no way to revoke if you buy directly via Steam/Epic/Gog, only if it was from illegal source.
