      It’s not on the physical box, so yes.

      The only bit that said you needed it, appears to be the card included in the box.

        You can go back to Counterstrike for that. Was a free mod for half life, then one day you needed Steam to play it. It’s how Steam was released and part of why there was such massive uptake early. Biggest game in the world at the time.
