The Humble Store is a digital place where fans can purchase games, usually at a pretty heavy discount and most of the proceeds go to various charities. Most popularly known for its bundles that include a ton of games and other media. This morning, Humble Support announced that all Electronic Arts titles are longer be available on the store and keys will begin to become inactive if not redeemed.
Humble Store States EA Origin Keys Must Be Redeemed by March 18
You have until March 18, 2022, to redeem any purchased EA game keys before they become invalid. This will not affect any keys that are unrevealed in a Humble Choice or purchased bundles.
Luckily, if you have your Origins and Humble Store accounts linked, all redeemable keys will automatically be redeemed for you on March 17. Of course, there are some exceptions to this so you might want to manually add any purchases if you haven’t so already.
The Humble support page has more information on its key replacements and refunds policy.
“However, we highly suggest redeeming your keys manually before March 18th, as we cannot provide any key replacements or refunds after this date has passed, even if our auto-redeem attempt is unsuccessful for your purchase.”
At the time of writing, it is unclear why this change is being made, but it could point to Origin games moving over to the new EA Desktop App, but that’s just speculation at this point.
