Metro: Exodus publisher Deep Silver released a statement earlier this week that they will be disabling Steam keys that were flagged as stolen and resold by an unauthorized reseller. The keys were allegedly taken from the factory where the physical keys were printed.
These keys have been obtained illegally from the factory where physical key printing had taken place prior to the announcement of exclusivity with Epic Games, due to the criminal nature of these keys, all unlicensed keys have been deactivated and activation / download of Metro Exodus without the executable file is no longer possible. In addition, the software will be removed from the Steam library of any players using an unauthorised code. The keys being sold on this platform are stolen goods, and are therefore illegal.
The announcement notes that the only authorized key sellers were Humble Store and Razer. Those affected are recommended to contact the seller for a refund, or possibly the cardholder to reverse the transaction.

When it comes to video games, The Bureau: XCOM Declassified is certainly something that was released for money. Currently for sale at $20 on Steam, for a limited time only you can pick up a copy of the 2013 XCOM third person shooter from Humble Bundle at the link below and redeem it on Steam. While the game may be considered a disappointment by hardcore fans of the turn-based strategy series, The Bureau currently holds a 66% overall positive rating on Steam with a more generous 82% recent positive rating, albeit many of those reviews noting its free availability.
The promotion ends on December 2, so pick your key up now.

MMO Fallout has partnered with Webzen to take part in a closed beta key giveaway for the upcoming hack ‘n’ slash MMO MU Legend. It has already been possible to register for random key selection through the main website, however obtaining a key through one of the media partners (ourselves included) will guarantee access when the beta goes live later this month.
Richard Moon, Head of Global Business at WEBZEN, commented: “We have been thrilled by the positive reaction of the fans that have pre-registered for the MU Legend closed beta. Now with the beta key giveaway, fans have another option to participate in the closed beta and help us shape the game.” He continued: “We not only welcome participation, but also feedback. We can’t wait to hear what our fans think of this new generation of MU.”
Players can pick up their key at the link below and redeem them on the MU Legend website. The list of beta partners can be found on the MU Legend Facebook page.
In consideration of separate time zones, MMO Fallout will be splitting our share of keys in half with the first half going live with the publishing of this post and the second going live later today at 5pm EST.

MMO Fallout has partnered with Webzen to celebrate the publisher’s seventh anniversary, and what better way to celebrate than by giving out heaps of free items? Starting now, you can head to the bottom of this page and nab yourself a key. That key is good for a bundle of free items on any of the Webzen games listed below: ASTA, ELOA, RAPPELZ, MU Online, and FLYFF. Each game comes with its own package of goods.
Today’s giveaway is a little different than what you might be used to seeing here at MMO Fallout. Each key is universal and can only be applied once to an account, so for the sake of not letting keys go to waste with people ignoring this to grab doubles, the giveaway is IP locked. You can’t apply more than one key to your account, even if you play more than one game on the list, it won’t work. The keys are good until May 31st, so if you’re having some trouble deciding which game to use yours on, you have some time.
Check below for the redemption instructions as well as what goods go with which game. Scroll all the way to the bottom of the page for the key link.

It’s giveaway day here at MMO Fallout, and today’s game is Riders of Icarus, a mount-flying MMORPG from Nexon America and WeMade Entertainment. We have one hundred keys to give away for the second closed beta test, beginning today (April 21st) and running through Thursday April 28th. If you happen to be visiting PAX East, you can pick up closed beta access in your attendee bag.
Players who previously participated in the closed beta will automatically be in for this round. There is no need to grab another key. Since we only have 100 keys to give away, the codes have been locked to one per IP.
Riders of Icarus tasks players with taming hundreds of different mounts, from ferocious bears to fire-breathing dragons. Players in North America, Mexico, Europe, Australia/New Zealand, and parts of South America are invited to be among the first to experience mounted aerial combat with dragons and bears! Well maybe not flying bears.
New players can grab a key below and follow the instructions to redeem. For the full list of supported regions, check out this page.

It’s only November and yet it already feels like Christmas. City of Steam is heading into closed beta! What is City of Steam, you ask? City of Steam is an upcoming MMO by Mechanist Games, based in the Unity3D engine and set in a steam powered, industrial world. Players are able to choose from ten races with four classes (with more on the way), with a branching story that lets you decide what path you take. I had a chance to play City of Steam during its beta-phase, and I enjoyed the game so much that I leaped at the opportunity to get some of my readers in-tune with the game.
There will be four beta phases for City of Steam. From MMO Fallout, you can get your hands on a beta key for this weekend:
