Q: Why is the Steam Key of Dead Format safer than the account format?

The Steam Key format is what we always recommend due to its ease of use and higher security compared to any other format. You just need to redeem the key in your account to download Dead Format to your game library. The account format requires more complicated steps and is more prone to errors during activation.

About Dead Format

A lost brother. A cursed VHS format. A government cover-up.

Dead Format is a survival horror game that takes you on a nightmarish journey through iconic eras of film. Set in 1990s Scotland, you play as a desperate sibling searching for their missing brother who was last seen obsessing over a mysterious VHS format. Dive into the tapes, fight your way through cinematic worlds, and find your brother before it’s too late.

Survive the cursed tapes

Your apartment is the hub. Here you can review clues, catch your breath, and prepare for the journey ahead. Use the Television set and insert VHS tapes to open the door to new worlds, each one with its own inspiration. Search for clues and face the nightmares in universes inspired by Silent Era Cinema, Italian Giallo films, and 80s Body Horror.

Classic Film meets Survival Horror

Search for supplies to stay alive and uncover key items to solve puzzles, unlocking your path forward.
Arm yourself with weapons and tools inspired by the film worlds you’ll explore.
Discover homemade VHS footage that blurs the line between fiction and reality.
Your apartment is the only place you can save the game. Find shortcuts and new paths to progress on your journey.
Each world comes with its own enemies, puzzles, and unique areas to explore.

A Mixed Media Game

Everything in Dead Format is created just for the game. This includes the VHS footage, which is recorded and edited by Katanalevy. Each tape provides a nostalgic window into the worlds players will explore.

About the Developer

Chris Evry (Katanalevy) is a Scottish solo developer drawn to creating experiences that are a blend of the darkly visceral and gothic sublime. He is the creator of Cardiac, Symphony of Seven Souls and Daemonologie.

How much does Dead Format for PC cost right now?

Dead Format for PC starts at €2.29 at Kinguin, a Steam key, which is 73% under the €8.49 it costs on the official store.

That €2.29 already includes the AUGGOC10 coupon, so apply it at checkout or the store will show you a higher price.

It is €0.18 away from its all-time low (€2.11, back in March 2026).

Is it worth buying the Steam Key for Dead Format now or waiting?

That €2.29 key is at one of its best prices.

Those €2.29 are 38% below what it usually costs, measured on the store price.
10 stores sell the Steam Key at the same time, and with that much competition the price moves almost daily.
Not counting today, only 9 days out of the 191 days on record were this cheap or cheaper; the lowest it has ever cost is €2.11.

At this price it is worth buying the Steam Key now: what you stand to gain by waiting is a few euros, and it is not guaranteed.

Worked out from 1,113 daily records of the Steam Key for Dead Format across 11 stores. See the full price history.

The price does not include each store's payment fees. The percentage is measured on the store price, without coupons, because that is how we record the history. The analysis only counts Key offers. Shared accounts, Steam Gift and physical editions stay out, because they are not the same product and their prices move differently.

Which Dead Format format should you buy?

By format: Steam Key from €2.29 and Steam Gift from €7.89.

Can you activate Dead Format in US?

All 11 offers are Global, so the code redeems on any account no matter where it was created.

Why is there such an expensive Dead Format offer?

One listing is worth ignoring: the Steam key that Fanatical has at €16.99 is more than 7 times the cheapest offer and is not what this game costs. The number to work from is €2.29 at Kinguin.
