About Respawnr: Independent Guides for Steam and PC Game Accounts
Respawnr explains how account holders can recover and secure their own Steam, Epic Games, Battle.net and Riot accounts using each platform's own tools. We are an independent guide site, not a recovery service, and we are not affiliated with Valve, Epic Games, Blizzard Entertainment or Riot Games. Everything we describe, you do yourself through the platform's official support.
What we can honestly promiseWe never ask for passwords, Steam Guard codes, recovery codes, API keys or card numbers.
On this page
Independent
Not affiliated with Valve, Epic Games, Blizzard Entertainment or Riot Games.
Sourced from official help
Each guide is written against the platform's own support articles.
No credentials here
We never sign in to, or act on, anyone's account.
What we promise, and where each promise stops
Every promise below is something a guide site can actually keep, with its limit stated.
Each guide is written against named official help pages from Steam Support, Epic Games, Blizzard or Riot Games.
The limit: Platforms change menus and policies without notice, so your own account screens and the official page always win over our wording.
Many guides note the month we read the official page, especially next to time-sensitive numbers such as trade hold lengths or refund windows.
The limit: A review date tells you when we checked, not that nothing has changed since.
If we could not confirm a detail on an official page, we either leave it out or say plainly that it is unconfirmed.
The limit: Where we could not confirm an exact menu name, we describe the step in general terms and point you to the official page.
We link only to official domains, such as help.steampowered.com, epicgames.com, battle.net and riotgames.com.
The limit: We cannot vouch for any other site, and we never point you to third-party recovery, trading or unban services.
We cannot promise that an account will be recovered, a ban lifted or an item returned. Those outcomes rest with the platform, and Steam says its Support does not restore items that have left an account and cannot remove VAC bans.
What you will find here
The site covers owner-side recovery and protection for Steam and major PC launchers.
- Recovery routes
- Step-by-step paths to Steam Support and each launcher's own player support.

Console accounts and streaming services are outside our scope; we stay with Steam and PC launchers.
What we will never ask you for
Nothing on Respawnr needs your secrets, so we never request them.
- No passwords
- No guide asks you to type or send a password to us; you enter it only on the platform's own sign-in page.
- No Steam Guard or recovery codes
- Sign-in codes, recovery codes and backup codes belong only on official Steam or launcher pages, never in a message to anyone.
- No card numbers
- We have no payment forms and never ask for card details; any proof of purchase goes only to Steam Support.
- No API keys or account access
- We never ask for a Steam Web API key and never sign in to your account; the full list of requests we decline is on our responsible-use page.
A few details worth knowing
Is Respawnr part of Steam, Valve, Epic Games, Blizzard or Riot Games?
No. Respawnr is an independent guide site with no affiliation to any of them. Steam Support is handled only through help.steampowered.com, and each launcher runs its own player support.
Can Respawnr recover my account for me?
No. We are not a recovery service and never act on anyone's account. Our guides show you the official route so you can contact the platform's support yourself.
How do you check that a guide is accurate?
Each guide is written against the platform's own help pages, and many note the month we read them, especially next to time-sensitive numbers. Details we could not confirm are left out or clearly marked as unconfirmed.
Someone says they work for Respawnr and asks for my login. What should I do?
Do not reply or share anything. We never contact people to ask for passwords, codes or card details; secure your account through the official platform instead.
