Diablo 4 now Steam Deck Verified before launch but no Steam keys for Battle.net buyers

Good news if you plan to dive into Diablo 4 with the Steam release coming on October 17th, as it has been Steam Deck Verified. There's some bad news if you already purchased it on Battle.net though.

Ouch. No way to transfer over. That is a hard blow to folks who have been playing blizzard games since battle.net started or before. ☹️

isn't it a requirement in the EU, if you bought the game on Battle.net ActiBlizz is required to give you a key to play it on Steam? or is it only for cloud gaming platforms, i.e., if you buy the game on Geforce Now, for example, you can have it for free in Microsoft's?

they did it once for Destiny 2 if I'm not mistaken, when Bungie announced they were moving from Bnet to Steam.

you don't even need extra keys, just make it so that when you link your Bnet with Steam, you get the game on your Steam. but this seems like it's just a shady practice by ActiBlizz to get more money for users that want to play on Steam.
