Very good price for Doom (2016) - deal lasts until time is over or until all keys are sold out which, judging by the number of keys left at time of posting, is quite likely.

Edit (9:07pm): Apparently the 10% vouchers from previous purchases do not work on final payment. I apologise for the confusion. Thanks to kamoi for pointing it out. Note that GMG offers a better deal at cheaper price and with 5 bonus games.

From the website:

  • Currently A$ 11.53 directly from Steam

    • Well, if you (as many of us who buy from Fanatical regularly do)have a 10% off code it makes this deal cheaper, namely $10.80 AUD.
      Plus, I would rather buy from a third party seller and support diversity in the marketplace than buying from Steam and give them a 30% cut.

      • god damn, I didn't read what OP wrote…need that coffee

          Actually you don't the original post didn't say anything about it being cheaper if you had a previous voucher.

      • Well, if you (as many of us who buy from Fanatical regularly do)have a 10% off code it makes this deal cheaper, namely $10.80 AUD.

        Coupons can't be used on Star Deals. Never could.

        • Hmm, when I tested it it showed as working but of course I did not go through with the purchase so not sure if it works on final payment.

  • If you already own Doom 3 on Steam you can buy the Bundle through Steam (Doom 3 & Doom 2016) and get an extra 15% off bringing it down to $9.80au

    • I wish they would do that with the Dishonored Def Ed. 🙁

    • Just checked: this only works if you have Doom 3:BFG.
      I have Doom 3 and I get no discount.

      • Ah ok, didn't realize it had to be the BFG edition.

        • Unfortunately, would have loved for the bundle to come down to that price.

  • +2

    Can't wait for the new one.

    its also $9.29 on cdkeys for anyone who wants to go the cheaper route.

    • +1

      Please do remember CDKeys is not an official and legit reseller - there is a risk with their keys. Hence they are not allowed on places like reddit etc.
      I had one invalid key when I tried it out (before I knew they were not legit) and it turned out to be a key bought with stolen credit card.

      • +2

        never had any issues with them, so thought id share! sorry you had a bad experience with them though. im pretty sure they just bulk buy keys from other countries and sell it cheaper that way, but could be wrong.

      • There is no risk with CD Keys

        Lysander stop pushing your own agendas for other sellers.

        • +1

          I can just tell you what I experienced.
          I have no agenda whatsoever but maybe you do?

          Have a read up on reddit why cdkeys is not allowed there - you csn then tell all the redditors they have an agenda too - probably all are shareholders of Fanatical, GMG, HB, GOG etc., hey? 😂

          Here are extracts:

          What is a reseller?
          "Resellers", better known as gray-market or unauthorized key resellers, are retailers that do not work directly with publishers to sell their game keys. Instead they'll buy codes from regions where games are cheaper, or through third-party sellers. These third-parties are generally unknown to the end buyer, which makes it a blind purchase.

          Why are resellers dangerous?
          There are a number of immediate risks associated with buying from resellers, but they also have long-term ill effects. We'll discuss some of those below.

          The most obvious risk is simply that a key can be rejected. Resellers have no way of verifying if the key you have is valid or not, and cannot provide support (without extreme measures such as watching your screen during activation). In almost every case, you'll simply be told you're out of luck.

          A common misconception is that keys bought from resellers are cheaper because they're "bought in bulk", and they can pass the savings on to the consumer. This is not the case. Instead, these keys typically come from regions where they've been priced for that economic climate. When we buy from sites that resell these keys, we are actively encouraging publishers to increase those regional prices or implement region locks on their games. To dodge the region lock, many resellers now request/require buyers to use a VPN or proxy to activate and play the purchase. This is more than just an inconvenience, it is a violation of the Steam subscriber agreement and could get your account banned.

          In some scenarios, keys are purchased in bulk via Humble Bundles, doing a disservice to the developer who chose to participate in the bundle and or charity.
          Furthermore, fraudulent keys can be retroactively removed from your online accounts. We've seen incidents where developers have invalidated keys after being purchased with stolen credit cards.

          A scam has recently emerged of pretending to be a journalist or Youtuber and asking for review keys from devs. Those keys are then sold on gray markets at a profit. When you don't know the source of the keys you're buying, you have no way of knowing if they "fell off a truck" or not.

          How to spot them?
          There's no guaranteed way of identifying a reseller, but there are a number of signs you can look for to make an informed decision.

          The best test is also the simplest. Ask yourself, "is it too good to be true?". Keep in mind that publishers set prices and limit discounts from legitimate sellers, and if an unknown seller has it for far cheaper than anyone else then that should be a red flag. This is also why the same games are often discounted at multiple retailers at the same time.
          No legitimate seller will outright specify that a VPN is required to activate a product or require you to read codes from scanned images. If a product is region-restricted, they will not tell you a workaround as unauthorized resellers do.
          Look for games that have official retailers listed by their publishers, and check if that site is on the list. For instance ArenaNet keeps a list of sellers for Guild Wars 2, while Blizzard disallows any title of theirs to be sold digitally by anyone but themselves. If you see World of Warcraft or a Diablo title being sold, this is almost certainly an unauthorized reseller.
          Many resellers are fly-by-night and don't even have completed websites. Check the site's FAQ, privacy policy and anything else that would indicate how established they are. Many times they're simply empty.
          Check the domain whois information using a site like DomainTools to see how long they've been registered, and who the admin contact is. If they use Whoisguard or list clearly fake information, they're likely a reseller.
          One thing to remember is that even if you receive a working key from a reseller, this doesn't necessarily make them "legit". It's a bit like claiming that winning at Russian Roulette makes it a "safe game". When working with resellers there's always the chance of getting a bad key, or having a game later revoked from your account. And for many people it's a hard lesson learned.

          Specific Examples:
          Ubisoft kills copies of Far Cry 4 sold through third parties.
          Over 7,000 Sniper Elite 3 stolen keys revoked.
          1,341 Natural Selection 2 keys stolen, costs developer $30K in fees.
          30,000 Blackwell Deception keys revoked after giveaway exploit.
          Devolver Digital actively cancels games purchased through reseller.

          Safe Sites
          We'd be remiss to not offer a list of safer alternatives. While these are far from the only safe sites to buy from, they are verified distributors of digital keys and are widely used.

          Amazon Blizzard Bundle Stars Desura
          GamersGate Gamesplanet Get Games Go GOG
          Groupees Humble Bundle Indie Gala IndieGameStand
          Origin ShinyLoot Steam Ubisoft

          In Closing
          We wanted to keep this an approachable guide without inundating you with information. Feel free to ask questions below and we'll do our best to answer. Please do avoid posting links directly to resellers (as AutoModerator will instantly remove the comment), but otherwise this is an open discussion.

          • @Lysander: So Reddit is purely unbiased

            Like yourself….

            • @aussietivoman: Look, if you want to use them that is fine. You are obviously aware of the issues and choose to take the risk.
              I just believe others should have the info to make an informed choice just as you can.
              Plus, the greater number of people Reddit who had issues with a particular store (or did not have any) gives a much stronger indication of risk than one or two people - Reddit has been there a long time and has a lot of users so I do believe it is more credible than just one person's word.

              In the end, everybody can decide for themselves if they want to take the risk - without having to get provocative/insulting/aggressive/passive-aggressive comments about it if you get what I mean.

              Finally, if one compares prices one should compare apples with apples, so official resellers with official resellers. Otherwise I could post deals from the bloke in the pub who offers electronics which might or might not have fallen off a truck which obviously is cheaper than buying from Kogan, HN, JB Hifi or any other official store.

          • @Lysander: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/witcher-dev-disputes-39-wi…

            GMG sources of games has had them banned from Reddit before

            Also a lot of devs urge people NOT to buy from GMG

            • @aussietivoman: But they are not anymore as they sorted their stuff out.

              If CDkeys and other stores do that and become official sellers - great as the more the merrier and the more competition the better the prices.

  • I recommend you guys check out gg.deals, current lowest is at $7.54AUD (depending on conversion rate) at 2game.com. Another thing to consider is that if you purchase from GMG ($11.53AUD), you can get up to 5 other games as part of their summer sale event.

    • -1

      The GMG is a good point - not sure about 2game.com as they do not appear on ITAD and reddit either which makes me put them in the unsafe category for now although they say they are an official reseller and have offices in lyon, Hong Kong, and Melbourne.
      Maybe I should try it out sometime.
