When choosing a horror game on Steam to quench that thirst for fear, many players assume their access to the title is permanent, that once bought, it’s theirs to keep. But this isn’t always guaranteed. Many games on Steam are protected by DRM (Digital Rights Management), which often requires an active connection to the Steam client to verify ownership, primarily to deter piracy. If the platform goes offline, an account is suspended, or access is otherwise restricted, players could suddenly find themselves locked out of the very games they paid for.
