A shop banner gives you a price, a seller and a percentage, and never the one thing you need to know: which of the products on sale that percentage belongs to. Resellers sell Steins;Gate Re:Boot as two different products — a plain Standard and a Digital Deluxe Edition — and once both are on screen together, the lowest price and the biggest discount stop pointing at the same purchase. Below is every offer we have live on the Steins;Gate Re:Boot price page, sorted by what you actually end up paying.
Which Steins;Gate Re:Boot are the shops actually selling?
Two labels are doing the rounds, and the gap between them is not a discount — it is a different product. MAGES. Inc. developed the remake and Spike Chunsoft publishes it; on PC it is a Steam release, so whichever shop you buy from, the game ends up in the same library.
| Label | What it is | Cheapest right now |
|---|---|---|
| Standard | The base game and nothing else. This is the reference every percentage on every banner is measured against. | € (with coupon SEPGOC10) |
| Digital Deluxe Ed. | A separate product that bundles extra content on top of the base game. The shops selling it rarely spell out what that content is. | € |
That second row is the one to slow down on. Neither our catalogue nor the shop titles say what the Digital Deluxe adds beyond "extra content", so treat it as unknown until a seller's own description spells it out. Paying extra for a bundle nobody will itemise is the usual way a good deal quietly turns into an average one.
Is the deepest cut on Steins;Gate Re:Boot the best buy?
The headline figure resellers quote is the gap against the official Steam price of the Standard edition. Right now that gap reaches 71% on the cheapest Standard we can see, and that one is at Kinguin.
Compare like with like, though. A Deluxe is measured against its own, higher reference price, so a smaller percentage there can still leave you better off than a bigger one on a Standard. It works the other way round too: a Deluxe from one shop can sit below the official price of the plain Standard. A percentage only tells you which reference the shop picked. What decides anything is the figure sitting to the left of it.
Every Steins;Gate Re:Boot price live right now, coupons included
Seller coupons are folded into the figures below, which is why the order here will not always match what a shop shows on its own page.
Why two Steins;Gate Re:Boot offers with the same name cost different amounts
Three things move the figure without changing the edition, and the seller's own title usually gives all three away if you read it properly.
Region
Most of these keys activate globally, but a few shops keep a Europe-only version on sale next to the global one. A restricted key that refuses to redeem stops being a bargain the moment you have to open a support ticket about it.
Subtitle languages
A visual novel is text before it is anything else, so this weighs more here than it would on a shooter. Some shops put the language set the key carries straight into the title of the offer. When one bothers to do that, take it at its word — and make sure the language you intend to read the game in is on the list.
The seller's own coupon
Site-wide coupons move the final figure below the listed price, and they are the reason a shop that looks third on a comparison page can end up first at checkout.
Which of these sellers has a track record
Trustpilot scores tell you how a shop treats its customers. They say nothing about which edition is in your basket, and a five-star seller will happily sell you the wrong one.

Frequently asked questions about Steins;Gate Re:Boot
Is this a remake or a re-release of the original?
A remake. It rebuilds the visual novel that started the series rather than repackaging it, which is why it is listed as its own product and not as a bundle with the earlier entries.
Which launcher does the PC version use?
Steam. Every offer above redeems into a Steam account, so where you buy changes the price and the receipt. The game lands in the same place regardless.
Do I need to have played the earlier games first?
No. This is the entry point of the series, so it is the one place where starting cold is the intended experience.
Is the Digital Deluxe worth the difference?
Only if the seller's description tells you what is inside. Unspecified "extra content" is not worth paying for, and the Standard is the same game underneath.
Should I wait for a deeper cut?
Its full price history answers that better than any banner does. You have it on the Steins;Gate Re:Boot price comparison.
Our verdict
Take the Standard unless a shop makes the case for its Deluxe in writing. Check the region and the language set on the exact offer you are clicking, not on the one sitting above it. Once you know which of the two you want, you can buy Steins;Gate Re:Boot key from the full price list.
