EDIT:
RIGHT NOW, THEY DON'T ACCEPT ORDERS!
(too much orders at once from SG users from around the world when I posted this here first might be the reason.)
though since the shop page says it's only temporaly there might be a chance it's coming back again.
I will update the thread when it's working again to let you know!


some days ago there was a topic somebody asked where to get Hitman Sniper Challenge (the preorder bonus game from absolution).
I found a site who is giving those out for free. --> here

In the original topic which is now closed, some said it doesnt work or that the site ask for more personal information after ordering. (to prevent that you have to order at night, its only to prevent children from getting the game, if you order at daytime you have to prove you are already 18 years old!)

I tested the site myself few moments ago, and all i can say is it works just fine. :)
you get a key which should be redeemed here to get a steam key --> here

and because i already have the game ninjas beware here is the key which I got from them in my test: -removed since it's gone-
go to the square enix redemption page and get your steam key with that and make sure to let us know whether it worked or not! (you need a square enix account to redeem that key to receive a steam key!)

just a heads up for all which haven't noticed yet!

the first link is an online shop.
just make an order with that article it will be 0,00 and you dont have to buy anything at all.
you receive a key which was given out from square enix from them.
Second link is the square enix page to redeem the given key in order to receive a steam key from them.(the same way as it worked for me when i originally bought absolution and got this game!)

Form fillers help. I use LastPass. They can often fill in other languages, since they use the same fields on the backend.

Get to the game page, click the radio box for the digital download, then click the button below and to the right, that says In den Warenkorb. The click the Zur Kasse button on the next page.

You have to scroll down and register on the next page. It goes First Name, Last Name, Date of Birth, then email and email confirmation. The next section is business address, skip it. Then it is real address. Street, Zip, City, and Country. Phone is the next section. The last one is password.

Pretty much you submit and click through a few more pages, then you will get like 3 emails (Check your spam folder). The third one has the most info/is confirmation that it went through and basically you go back to your account (If you get lost, click that link or the IHR Konto in the menu at the top) and you will then see your order listed with a big button with two long words that basically look like serial number and something else. Click that. In the first part of that page, you will see Seriennummern. On the first line, on the right side, is your serial number and the link to redeem it at.

I'm at that page, and it doesn't show a "Seriennummern"... It only shows "Bestellnummer: #####".

EDIT: Nevermind, it just took like 5 minutes to appear on the page. I can confirmed that the code worked, and so did the resulting steam key. Downloading it now. :3

This is awesome. I loved Absolution, and I really wanted to try the sniper challenge, but there was absolutely no way to get it. And I saw this thread on accident just scrolling quickly down to go to the next page of giveaways. What luck. >.<

You could give your code from the German website for someone to redeem it for you instead of begging here. :)

Thanks a lot. I was mad because they weren't selling it and I had ended up with the regular version with my AMD card back in December, so I couldn't get it without buying the Professional version. This makes me feel a lot better.

Works just fine, if you follow all the steps and complete their form. And just to be sure, use a birthday before 1990.

On the Square Enix page when I click to redeem it appears all in red for me. Can people that didn't pre-ordered the game have this one ?

Are you sure it asks for proof? This means you don't have to prove you are 18 or above.

I just received the key now. It was giving me "Order in confirmation" but now my problem is my key that appears to be invalid in the Square Enix page, it's a key like this XXXXXX-000-XXXXXX-000
Should I send a mail to the 1st link ?

A Japan website gave it long time ago, but it's region locked, so I can't play it, don't know if I can activate another not region locked.

Wait, that's where I got mine....

Can I no longer play it now that I've left Japan? I haven't installed it in forever, so I guess I wouldn't know...

Time for science!

  1. Is my old Japanese copy region locked and no longer playable now that I no longer live in Japan?
  2. If so, can I simply add this apparently region-free key to my Steam account? (I've previously added the same game twice to my account just on accident, so I know that is sometimes possible)

Will experiment forthwith.

Progress:

  1. Well, it's letting me install the old version at least.
  2. Hrmm, let me play just fine. I guess mine's not region-locked?
