Weekend PC Game Deals is where the hottest gaming deals from all over the internet are gathered into one place, every week, for your consumption. So kick back, relax, and hold on to your wallets.

Ending the gaming bundle shortage, Humble Bundle has come forth with another Jumbo Bundle. The newest iteration of the long line of jumbo bundles comes with seven games for now, with more being added on next week.

Going for the most basic tier, which asks you for at least $1, gets you copies of Domina, Kingdom: New Lands, and Rusty Lake: Roots.

Up next, the "pay more than the average tier" brings an additional three games, them being Orwell: Keeping an Eye On You, N++, and Tropico 5. The city management title also comes with its Espionage and Waterborne expansions.

Purchasing the $15 final tier will get you all games from the previous two tiers, as well as a copy of the exploration title from the makers of Myst, Obduction.

IO Interactive gave away the Paris episode of Hitman back in December as a winter promotion, and now, the developer is back with another freebie. This time you can claim the game"s second episode Sapienza for free by just going to the game"s Steam store page and nabbing the HITMAN Spring Pack.

This episode arrives with the World of Tomorrow story mission, over 100 challenges, 20 mastery levels, seven achievements, all of Sapienza"s escalation and featured contracts, and more. You will also get the opportunity to take down any elusive targets that are brought back in this location.

You have until April 3 to claim the pack, and once done, it will remain in your library forever. If at any point you purchase the Hitman GOTY edition, all progress from the free episode will carry over as well.

Free Events

The Bethesda published Tamriel-set MMO, The Elder Scrolls Online, is hosting another free play session, giving everyone the opportunity to try out the base game until March 28. While not significant, the extended promotion should give you enough to time see if the MMO is something you want to invest your time into.

Meanwhile, if you want to do some racing this weekend on some of the fastest Formula One cars in the world, Codemasters has you covered. The studio"s popular racing title from last year, F1 2017 is free to try on Steam this weekend, giving you access to all the fast-paced single-player and multiplayer content.

Lastly, we have the 4vs1 multiplayer horror game White Noise 2"s Steam free weekend. The title has four investigators searching for eight hidden tapes around a map, while the player in control of the monster must isolate and take out the investigators before they succeed.

Big Deals

With the beginning of the weekend arrives a wide assortment of sales from a range of PC game stores, and below, we have a selection of handpicked games that are near or below their historical discount rates. Remember that Fanatical"s Spring Sale discount code - SPRING10 - is still online, using it will give you a 10% discount on top of the sale price.

DRM-free Goodness

Now, with all those out of the way, let"s have a look at the long line of DRM-free deals that are on offer at the GOG store this weekend. In addition to its usual weekly sale, GOG also kicked off a special sale of games with great storytelling. You can see the highlights we selected below:

Do keep in mind that availability and pricing for some deals may vary depending on the region you"re in.

And that is it for our pick of this weekend"s PC game deals folks, and hopefully, some of you have enough self-restraint not to break the bank adding new games to your ever-growing backlogs. Of course, there is an enormous amount of other deals ready and waiting all over the interwebs if you comb through it hard enough, so keep your eyes open for those, and have a great weekend.
