Buying someone a steam game without a steam account












2














I deleted my steam account with with 1k games on it recently because I wanted to combat my video game addiction.



I want to gift a game (specifically artifact) to a friend, he has a steam account and I don't. Is there a way to buy him a key or something like that so I can send him the game without having steam?

There are two ways that come to mind. 1 is to give him a gift card (as Frank mentioned in his comment), the other is to make a new account and gift it to him through it, and then delete that account (which is probably more complicated since I believe you will have to re-friend him through that new account)
