If you've been holding off on Elite: Dangerous, now might be the time to grab a flight stick and jump on board. From May 28 you’ll be able to generate a Steam key from your account page, and we’ll have full instructions right here on the forums closer to the time."
" Elite: Dangerous runs on Frontier’s servers," continued Lewis "so we’ve been working with Valve to give you a way to seamlessly connect your Steam and existing Frontier accounts in a way that’s easy. Interestingly, it looks like Elite: Dangerous owners will be able to generate their own Steam key from within the game, which should make the transition over to Valve's service that little bit smoother. "We always appreciate it when you buy direct from our store because it means we can put more into supporting and developing Elite: Dangerous," wrote Frontier Developments' community manager Edward Lewis in a forum post, "but we know a number of long-time players and backers like to play through Steam and we think it’s fair everyone has that option, not just new players." While there's a certain amount of goodwill attached to giving away Steam keys, it's more likely that Frontier Developments is keen to keep sales on its website and away from Valve's steep 30 percent cut.
That also applies to anyone who backed the game's Kickstarter campaign, and for any new purchases made on the Frontier Developments website. Those who have already picked up " the best damn spaceship game" Ars has ever played may be pleased to hear that they'll soon get the steam version of Elite: Dangerous for free.
