Let’s start off with free games available on Steam;
Due to developers suddenly feeling generous (and trying to promote their other game, Fission Superstar X, the punk rock vehicular slaughter RPG Death Skid Marks is now made available permanently free on Steam.
Death Skid Marks is an ultra-violent top down car combat game where you will kill countless numbers of foes in the most noble quest of all: getting to a kickass music concert. Fight groupies, rednecks, neo-nazis, religious fanatics, the police, robots, aliens, suicide bombers and your own self-destructive urges to play Russian roulette. Upgrade your car with parts and your crew with illicit substances, buy weapons and special items, fight using guns, melee and your driving skills. Travel 666KMs along route 666 and face increasingly impossible odds. Unlock tons of content such as cars and bumper stickers.
Death Skid Marks has Very Positive reviews and it used to costs $6.79 on Steam, but from August 22nd 2022 you can get it for zero bucks.
Guild Wars 2 just launched on Steam completely free! This is one of the most popular and well crafted MMORPGs, and now you can be a part of that world without having to buy anything.
The free version of the game includes the entire base game, 2 character slots and every character class! Sure, once you’re inside you can spend money on expansions and whatnot, but you can just play the game for a long time without spending a penny.
And don’t worry, there’s a thriving community behind this 10 year old game so it’s not dying anytime soon.
If you want to check out why this MMORPG is so popular, here’s the link to where you can download it for free on Steam and here’s our post about other free MMORPGs you can play.
