Metro Exodus publisher Deep Silver has deactivated a batch of Metro Exodus Steam keys that it says were stolen from a factory and sold by an "unofficial key reseller".

The game could initially be pre-ordered on Steam, and physical copies were also being sold with a Steam key inside. Those orders were stopped when Deep Silver announced the game would only release on the Epic Games Store—but not before keys were stolen from a printing factory.
