Death Must Die is a very fun survivor-like and you can buy it for a very low price, but sometimes it appears as not available for purchase on Steam.

This odd issue is mostly caused by issues with Steam’s servers, as this game in particular has no buy restrictions of any kind.

In this article, we’ll explain why this odd issue happens and tell you everything you need to work around it to buy Death Must Die.

How To Buy Death Must Die If It’s Not Available On Steam

The first thing to note about Death Must Die is that it has no region locks of any kind on Steam. As such, every single Steam user should be able to purchase it without issues. It’s available to the entire world!

However, sometimes the Steam storefront has issues, which affected Death Must Die recently. This issue caused the “Add to Cart” button to not appear at all.

This is potentially due to issues with Steam’s servers and is most likely to happen whenever Steam has maintenance.

On that note, Steam has scheduled maintenance every Tuesday around 16:00 Pacific Time. Keep that in mind when trying to purchase Death Must Die or any other game!

Regardless, if that’s the case then you really can’t do anything but wait it out. Keep checking the Death Must Die store page on Steam and it should become available eventually.

If that doesn’t help at all, though, let’s explore alternate purchase methods that you can try!

Add to Wishlist Trick

The first method is to just use your Wishlist on Steam.

Add Death Must Die to your wishlist, then open your wishlist and look for the game. If it’s all working properly, you should see the “Add to Cart” button on the wishlist even if it’s not visible on the store page!

This little trick allows you to work around any issues that might be affecting Steam’s storefront. However, it’s unlikely to work during scheduled maintenance.

If this still doesn’t work for you, there’s one last alternative for you.

Use Third-Party Sellers

The last potential method to purchase Death Must Die for you is to just avoid buying it directly on Steam. Instead, buy from a trusted third-party website such as Humble or Fanatical.

NOTE: Make sure to avoid gray market websites, though. Websites like G2A and Eneba might have extremely enticing prices, but they aren’t trustworthy.

Games bought from these websites might be revoked from your Steam account, if they even work at all to begin with.

Anyway, buying from third-party websites will get you a Steam key, which is a code you can activate on Steam.

If you haven’t activated a key code on Steam before, make sure to read their official instructions on how to do it.

The only big downside to third-party websites is that you aren’t eligible for refunds. Steam can only offer refunds for games bought directly on their platform, after all!

But it’s probably not a big deal when it comes to Death Must Die in particular, considering how cheap the game is.

Hopefully, this article helped you, so you can start your quest to kill Death itself in this extremely fun survivor-like!
