Nice one thanks for the link, I tried to find your post but wasn't able to, I must have been doing something wrong! Or I went past it lol.

Ill save that for later thanks and will have to start going through and redeeming all the ones that are expiring soon!

I'm super ****** my tomb raider key from Jan 2026 have run out but I'm hopeful of a restock, I went and claimed the remastered 1 to 3 versions from early 2025 ok.

Yeah they should restock. If you've tried and failed to claim it, you should get an email when they come back in, so keep an eye out! (usually between 5-8pm on weekdays for the ones I've had)

I actually received an email stating that keys for that bundle were back in stock, but when I went back to get the tomb raider key (which was the only one that had exhausted stock) it was still showing that stock was exhausted and I haven't had another email since.

Did you go from the link in the email, or browse to it from the main website? Not sure whether it matters or not.

Edit: just checked and don't think I've even had an email for that one yet

@Nemiyen @demonix - Just got the email less than an hour ago and claimed TR4-6, hopefully you guys see this or the email before they run dry again :)

Thanks very much and was just coming here to mention the same thing. :)

I was asleep when you posted this but managed to pickup my key around 7am. Phew! I figured with a year to claim I'd be ok but still annoying I couldn't claim straight away.

Well for one, it's time consuming and locks you out if you redeem too many at once.
But otherwise, I paid for Steam keys, so I want Steam keys, not EGS or whatever :P (and doesn't help when they've already swapped them out for Epic without notice)

You are able to still get hold of the key(s) that been swapped to epic. I found this and followed the steps.

[Humble Bundle] Previous Choice games redeemable on Epic Games Store

www.steamgifts.com www.steamgifts.com

Took 3-4 days to get the information and it is accessible through excel, but.. I also had to do this to get it sorted in columns, as each line was all in one cell when opening the redemptions-1 csv file, so couldn't sort it at first.

How to Read CSV File in Excel (5 Quick Tricks) - ExcelDemy

In this article, we’ll discuss 5 method of how to read a CSV file in Excel with proper explanation. So, you can adjust the ways for your file.
www.exceldemy.com www.exceldemy.com

After I made a copy of the file and I then used this step - Method 4 – Using the Text to Columns Feature - and then you just have to find out when the game was in a choice bundle. In my case it was Death Stranding Director's Cut which was in the April 2023 Humble Choice. Even if it says the Redemption deadline has expired, the key was still in the file. You just have to make the excel sort it out for the Product Key column, which just state april_2023_choice (in case of Death Stranding) then you have to compare the keys you redeemed and the one that is missing is the key you want. I had only redeemed 3 keys from that bundle so was easy to find it.

It shucks what they did but at least you can find your missing steam keys this way, even if it takes a bit of work. Just one finally word, after I redeemed the code it didn't show up in my library directly (even if the store page said I owned it) so I restarted the steam client and the loading screen for the steam client took a bit more than a minute to actually start up, which was a bit unusual since it normally almost instantly.
 
Well, I've maxed out my Steam activations for now but had a fair few that had expired with no way to redeem and a few that said out of keys and they will email me when back in stock.

Decided to cancel my humble choice instead of pausing as I spat my dummy out. :p

If the next bundle is any good I'll just renew as I know ill forget to pause again at some point!
 
Sorry for the bump, but got an email for Aug 24 a few days ago... keys were gone by the time I got there, but tonight I claimed a key for 'High on Life', which is mostly the last one I cared about!
Claiming them all as they come up now, may give a few away directly in real time but won't make the mistake of letting them sit again
