Question 1

can you use the code to purchase this game off of steam?

Accepted Answer

Once you order it you will get a code in which you redeem into Steam. You pay on newegg for code. You do not have to buy game in steam again

Question 2

I purchased the required combo for this game and was told that I received it, but I do not know how to access the code. Was it mailed on paper with my products, or in a confirmation email? Thank you!

Accepted Answer

Paul, I recieved a seperate email from newegg with an access code. I believe I went to nvidia's website and they had a link for redeeming your code. It should be in the email. You enter your access code and along with some personal info and it should kick out a game key that you can use through ateam or other platforms. Hope this helps.

Question 3

How do you actually use the code? I never received an email and there is no link in my order history. It just shows partial codes.

Accepted Answer

You should receive an email that says digital product delivery.  If you can't find it always check the spam folder or filter your mail to show important or starred email.  (Newegg will mark it as starred and important on a gmail account other services may have similar scenarios).  If you can't find it don't sweat it; the box will have a slip of paper on it or it will be on the invoice).  Next take that code to Geforce website (this is not yet a steam key).  On the site there will be a place to redeem it tor a steam key to be used on Steam.

Question 4

So I ordered the gtx 780 last summer and got a code for the Pre-Sequel, which was on the box of the graphics card or in an email. I forget specifically but either way I don't have the box nor the email anymore, since I figured it would show up in my steam library. Any way to recover this code or am I out of luck?

Accepted Answer

I've had very good experience with Newegg's customer service on returns, just one so far but they were quite helpful. However, given that this is a game code, you may run into roadblocks and they may not be able to help you. It never hurts to ask though. :)

Question 5

Does it put it in your steam library or does it put the gift in your inventory when you redeem it?

Accepted Answer

You redeem the code on the Nvidia website for a Steam code. The steam code automatically adds it to your library.

Question 6

how do you get the code?

Accepted Answer

You get an email with redemption instructions, sends you to a Nvidia website that ends up giving you a Steam key.

Question 7

Where can i find my promo #?  I checked all my email when i bought my evga gtx 770, but i dont see it anywhere.

Accepted Answer

First check if you put right email. In few days still dont have it call newegg they will help you!

Question 8

When do you actually get the code? do they email you or do they ship you something with the code on it when my gpu comes? just a little bit confused

Accepted Answer

New Egg E-Mails you a code with a link to a Nividia web site where you enter the code, then Nividia E-Mails you a code you enter at the steam web site where it is put in your game library.

Question 9

How and when will the code be acquired?

Accepted Answer

The code can be attained August 15th.  I found this at the code redemption page for Borderlands on the Invidia site (I would give a link because it is a helpful page on all of this but Newegg won't let me).

Question 10

Is this activated via Steam?

Accepted Answer

Yes! In fact the digital codes are actually intended for Steam.
