It's like that for all game giveaways that require the third party launcher, like EA Games, Ubisoft, Activision, etc.

Some games have exclusivity with a specific publisher (Steam, Epic Games) and cannot be released on other clients.

But for example, you can redeem keys on EA, or Epic. They don't give you the key, they put it directly on your account.

Something weird going on with this one. It's got 47 reviews, all negative, and saying the exact same thing:

Китайцы какую-то игру сделают еще и платной

Russian translation:

Chinese game takes place on a platform

Rise is my favourite of the TR reboots. Loved that VR sidequest as well. :)

Looks like biased review-bombing to me. And the line reads more like:
I wonder what kind of non-free game the Chinese will create next

What game will the Chinese make non-free next?

Perhaps the game wasn't free initially?

One of the News posts indicates that the developer is planning on changing the game from "free" to "fee" at some point. I suppose that's what the comments are about.

(Although I find it pretty funny that the comment spam is in Russian, for a game that's Chinese-language only. And that we're discussing it in English.) :laugh:
