Epic Games – Activation using a product key:
Required Information:
- An Epic Games account (logged in on the Epic Games Store website or in the Epic Games Launcher application).
- Installed Epic Games Launcher (PC application) or a web browser.
- An activation key for a game intended for the Epic Games platform.
Activation Steps (via website):
- Open the Epic Games Store code redemption page (or navigate to the Redeem section from the Epic Store homepage).
- Log in to your Epic Games account (or create a new one if you don’t have an account yet).
- Once logged in, paste your activation key into the field on the page and confirm by clicking the “Redeem” button.
Activation Steps (via Epic Games Launcher):
- Launch the Epic Games Launcher application and log in to your Epic account.
- Click on your profile name (in the top right corner) and select “Redeem Code.”
- Enter your activation key into the dialog and confirm by clicking “Redeem.”
- After the code is accepted, the game will be added to your Epic Games library, where you can download and install it.
Important Notices:
- Note that not all games on the Epic Games Store support key-based activation (most games on Epic are purchased directly through the store). Keys are usually provided during promotions or by third-party retailers – if you have a key, the above procedure is the correct way to redeem it.
- Ensure you are logged into the correct Epic account before redeeming a code. Once activated, the game is tied to that account and cannot be transferred.
