NewsHubThis Weekend’s PC Game Deals is a roundup of games – old, new, or soon to be released – that are available at a great price and can be activated on Steam, Origin, or Uplay – sometimes even good old games that are DRM-free.
After a year of relatively modest “on the house” offers, the Origin store is finally offering a more modern game for gamers to download for free. Mass Effect 2 is regarded by many critics as the best of the original trilogy , and all you need to grab it is an Origin account and the Origin client, which you can set up here. Also, if you happen to like Bioware’s space opera and are willing to spend $10.99, you can get the entire series from DLGamer , and Mass Effect: Andromeda – the next instalment into the series – is on the horizon as well.
The Humble Store has two interesting deals, the first of which is promoting their “Humble Monthly” subscription, which is a good way for passionate gamers to discover hand-picked indie games, timeless classics. The monthly package sets you back only $12 (even less if you choose a recurring plan), and also includes a AAA title to spice things up – the February offer is XCOM 2 , an excellent, turn-based game that has you guiding humanity’s fierce resistance force against an alien invasion.
There are a number of other perks to Humble Monthly, such as indie games developed exclusively for subscribers, a 10% discount on purchases from the Humble Store, and the fact that 5% of the proceeds go to a charity.
If you’re a sucker for indie games, then you most definitely need to check out Humble Store’s “ Overwhelmingly Positive Bundle ”. As the name implies everything in this bundle has a good rating on Steam, and paying any amount greater than one dollar will net you Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse, Epic Battle Fantasy 4, and Pony Island.
Paying more than the average (currently $6.56/€6.17/£5.30) gives you access to Day of the Tentacle Remastered , DEADBOLT , Bit Blaster XL , and Refunct , and indie junkies can get an even better fix for spending over 10$, which adds games like VA-11 Hall-A: Cyberpunk Bartender Action and N++ (NPLUSPLUS) on top of everything else at the lower tiers – keep in mind that some of the Steam reviews are from people who spent more than 48 hours in each of these games.
If the previous promotions weren’t enough, we’ve also hand-picked some of the best deals on PC games that you can find across all online stores. Some of them are flash sales, so act quickly if you don’t want to miss them. Also, if you happen to be looking for console games as well, check out the list of Xbox games that you can grab with Gold (two of which were announced alongside a price slash of the Xbox One S ).
