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.

Humble this week has prepared a bundle for city-building fans, letting them pick up probably the most popular title in the genre right now, Cities: Skylines, plus plenty of DLC.

The bundle begins with the Cities: Skylines base game and Deep Focus Radio DLC being offered for $1. The two tiers following it brings in additional add-ons for further deepening the title. Paying around $7.50 for the average price tier gets you the Natural Disasters, Concerts, Snowfall expansions plus High-Tech Buildings creator pack.

The $18 final tier rounds up the package with Mass Transit, Green Cities, Industries, and Campus expansions, with Art Deco and European Suburbia coming in as creator packs.

Elsewhere in the bundle section, the recent Humble Bandai Namco Bundle is coming to an end soon, which heralds games like Katamari Damacy REROLL and Tekken 7. The May Humble Choice promotion comes to a close in less than a week too, with it slated to refresh its offerings on Thursday.

Jumping over to this week"s freebie on the Epic Games Store, the big hitters continue as Borderlands: The Handsome Collection has replaced the Civilization VI giveaway.

This package includes Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-sequel, as well as every expansion and DLC they have ever received, giving you a couple of complete experiences to go through. Both games feature four-player online cooperative play as well, which is pretty much recommended for these humorous looter shooters.

The Handsome Collection giveaway will wrap up on June 4. Once again, you will have to wait until that same day to find out what"s next on the giveaway schedule, since it"s back to being a mystery.

Free Events

Over in the free events pile is quite a few heavy hitters this weekend, and let"s start things off with Ubisoft"s Far Cry 5 promotion. You can try out the action game to its fullest through May 31 via the Uplay client. The Star Citizen free fly week is still up and running too, slated to end on June 2.

Over on Steam, the roguelike narrative card game Cultist Simulator is free-to-play until June 1, joining it is turn-based roguelike RPG Darkest Dungeon for the same duration. If you"re into racing sims, then Assetto Corsa Competizione"s free weekend might be up your alley, while strategy fans can try out the turn-based zombie adventure game Dead Age.

From the indie side also arrives free weekends for the roguelike shooter Genesis Alpha One and PixARK, a voxel-based survival game.

Meanwhile, as a part of its new summer sale, GOG is currently offering seven demos of upcoming games to try out until June 15. Desperados III, Destroy All Humans! remake, System Shock, Carrion, and more are a part of this promotion.
