FAQ
Is it cheaper to buy PC games outside Steam?
Often, yes. Today 273 of the 529 games we track that Steam sells (52%) cost less at another authorized store, and 167 of them are at least half off the Steam price. Steam is still the cheapest place for the other 256.
Are keys from these stores real Steam keys?
Stores such as GameBillet, Fanatical, Humble, IndieGala, Gamesplanet, GreenManGaming, GamersGate and WinGameStore are authorized resellers that mostly sell Steam keys bought from publishers. GOG sells DRM-free copies and Epic sells copies for the Epic launcher, so those are not Steam keys. Always check the platform on the store page before you pay.
Which store beats Steam most often?
Today it's GameBillet (68), GOG (56), Fanatical (38). This changes daily with each store's sales.
Do you include key resellers like G2A or Kinguin?
No. We only compare authorized stores, never gray-market key resellers, so every price here comes from a store that gets its keys from the publisher.
