How do I activate my product key?
Recent Feral games released on DVD and all downloadable versions (except those purchased from the Mac App Store) require the game to be activated using a unique activation code before it can be played. This code is referred to as a Product Key.
You must always enter the Product Key into the six empty boxes in the Activation tab in the pre-game Options window.
If you have bought the DVD version of the game
The Product Key is printed on the back of the game's manual.
Be careful to type it correctly, and be aware that sometimes numbers and letters can look similar, for example, "B" and "8".
If you have downloaded the game
The Product Key will have been emailed to you by the vendor that sold you the game.
-
We advise that you copy the code from the email and paste it into the Activation tab. This method will avoid any potential input errors. To do this:
- Highlight the Product Key and copy it using the key command Command (⌘) + C.
- Click the Paste button to the right of the six empty boxes in the Activation tab to transfer the Product Key.
If you did not receive an activation code, we advise that you contact the vendor.
In either case, the Save button below the six empty boxes will only become active once the correct code has been entered. If it remains greyed-out, the code is incorrect.
If you have bought the game on DVD, you have the option of playing the game with the disc in the drive rather than activating it online.
If you have downloaded the game, or if you have the DVD version and would rather play without the disc in the drive, click the Activate Online... button. This will send the code to Feral and enable your machine to play the downloaded version of the game, or play without the disc in the drive.
Each code can be used to activate the game on 5 machines at any one time, and should not be distributed to others.
If you have entered the correct code and are still unable to activate the game, contact us through support@feralinteractive.com.
