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.
Starting off with the freebie, Epic Games Store's latest free game giveaway is for The Fall, which came in to take the place of last week's Surviving Mars.
Released in 2014, the title puts players into the shoes of a combat suit's artificial intelligence tasked with protecting its unconscious wearer. You'll be exploring an alien planet filled with mysteries and puzzles through an atmospheric storyline.
Next week from Epic Games, you will be able to grab a copy of the pinball-based action game Creature in the Well, which will replace the current The Fall promotion on March 25.
The gaming bundle space is quite a bit populated this weekend.
Jumping into it, the new Curve Digital Humble Bundle carries The Flame in the Flood and Hue in the $1 tier, which is joined by the average price second tier (currently around $6.50) that adds on When Ski Lifts Go Wrong, Manual Samuel, and Table Manners. Next, Bomber Crew, Space Crew, For The King, Autonauts, Narcos: Rise of Cartels, and American Fugitive are yours to claim in the final tier, which will set you back $9.
Celebrating Daedalic Entertainment’s 15th Anniversary there is a special single-tier 20-game bundle available from Humble as well, which is asking $13 for the lot. Also available on the store currently is a new Build Your Own Bundle promotion featuring Ubisoft games like Anno 1800, Assassin's Creed Odyssey, Ghost Recon Breakpoint, and many others. Adding more items from this selection to your cart will deepen the already running discounts.
If you're a driving games fan, you may be interested in Fanatical's returning Nitro Bundle, which features GRID (2019), GRIP, Project CARS GOTY Edition, Redout, alongside more racers and several DLC packs all for $4.99. Lastly, if you missed it, there's still a few days left on the packed Stellaris Discovery Bundle from the previous week.
