While the new Steam Summer Sale just blasted off giving users chances to win some free games, the Humble Store is giving away a game outright. The title on offer is the turn-based tactical RPG Shadowrun Returns by Harebrained Schemes, and the giveaway will last for the next two days.
Here"s a short description of the cyberpunk fantasy mash-up title taken from its store page:
Magic has returned to the world, awakening powerful creatures of myth and legend. Technology merges with flesh and consciousness. Elves, trolls, orks and dwarves walk among us, while ruthless corporations bleed the world dry. You are a shadowrunner - a mercenary living on the fringes of society, in the shadows of massive corporate arcologies, surviving day-by-day on skill and instinct alone. When the powerful or the desperate need a job done, you get it done... by any means necessary.
Since this giveaway is for the Deluxe Edition of the game, it also comes with the official soundtrack and the Anthology DLC, which is an illustrated PDF full of short stories by the Shadowrun series creator, Jordan Weisman.
Normally available for $24.99, Shadowrun Returns Deluxe Edition is up for grabs on the Humble Store for free right now. However, it seems there is a new requirement to claiming the freebie that wasn"t there on earlier giveaways, where signing up for the Humble Bundle newsletter is now needed. Once claimed, the serial key will be redeemable on Steam until July 7.
