The Day Before will go down as one of 2023's greatest disasters, rated as one of the worst games of the year and was so bad that developer Fntastic decided to close its doors just days after release. The Day Before can no longer be purchased on Steam after that whole saga, but you know that whenever something has limited quantities, the scalpers aren't too far behind, no matter the quality.
Yes, if you can believe it, spare Steam codes for The Day Before are currently being sold by third-party key sellers for hundreds of dollars. First reported by Kotaku, the reputable third-part key seller Green Man Gaming has compared the prices of three other key sellers still providing codes for The Day Before, all of which are selling them for between $200 - $400 a pop.
Rarity will no doubt factor into these prices quite considerably, as you could probably sell just about anything for hundreds to the right person if you stress how limited it is. Whether anyone is actually buying this game for that much money is unknown, though if you are thinking of taking up these key sellers on their offer, then you should have your wallet taken away from you and your bank account frozen for your own safety.
Scalping has become a real issue over the past few years, as those online have been snapping up and selling everything from Tekken 8 closed network codes to Pokemon TCG cards.
What makes this even worse is that The Day Before's servers aren't long for this world for much longer either. While Fntastic has never actually explained what's going to happen to The Day Before now that the studio has jumped ship, it's naturally expected that the game's servers are going to die at some point soon, rendering the game completely unplayable.
