Issues unresolved

"Failed to contact key server" error on launch (Steam)

A previous issue relating to Steam running out of keys for the game has now been resolved. The game remains unavailable to buy, but copies obtained via unused gifts or codes from third party retailers will now activate without issue.
However, many people are still reporting that they're unable to use or activate the game's DLC. There has been no official response to this issue.
