How to get Code from Pre-Purchased game on STEAM

[Reborika]

HELP!!

I pre-purchased AC Unity from STEAM

there is a spin contest every friday to win stuff and it wants the pre-purchased code

i cannot find it any where on my steam account

Does the game show in your Steam Library?

[Reborika]

yes....it shows as coming soon
i have my paypal receipt saying that i pre-payed as well

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Right click Game Name in Steam Library > click CD KEY
Copy and paste any keys in that list (one at a time) and then launch Uplay Client, login to that account, click Games > Activate.

As is required for such games that use Uplay.

thank you :)
i will try that right now

[Reborika]

as its a pre-purchase......i have not cd key yet :(

[Reborika]

i can do it with all my other ac games....but alas i own and play those

its becuase its a pre-purchase and the cd key is not available yet

Then I do not think it will work on Steam; only Uplay. For what u are trying to do.

As when comparing pre-purchase details between Steam and Uplay stores for this particular game; only Uplay speaks of that pre-order feature. However, Steam should make the game available before actual release date, so people have time to "pre-load" the game early and such. Once that occurs, your Steam game code (CD KEY) should then be available.


If u have further concerns, I would take that up with Steam Support and see what they say. And while waiting for a reply from them, contact Ubisoft in the same manner and see what they say about the Steam version of UNITY.

damn....thats what i figured :(
to bad as you can win some kewl stuff

thanks so much for your help :)

Still though, I'd contact them and see what they say.
Just be sure to be more clear about what u are asking about, just so u get a straight answer.

[Reborika]

contact steam?

ive tried that before on something where a gift game did not load.....yeah....didnt get me anywhere :( not even an answer back

[Bad 💀 Motha]

Well they do take time to respond, they usually take at least a few business days.

But perhaps see what Ubisoft has to say about it too. See if they say it's only if purchasing through Ubi/Uplay directly or something.

From what I see, that is what I'd have to suggest; as that is what the comparison of game store details suggests to me. I want this game too, now this making me rethink getting it through Steam.

thanks mod-motha :)

i spent 90 canadian bucks on this game through steam as i got the gold edittion....this is the most ive spent on a game on steam.....

It's a lottery is all, and it would be between u and the other million+ who pre-ordered. But yea winning any one thing they giving away would be nice.
