And if you’d rather be on the lookout for free games, we’ve got you covered in this article:

Highlight of the weekend: Deep Rock Galactic

Deep Rock Galactic: One of the best co-op games on Steam gets even bigger in Season 2
Genre: Ego-Shooter | Developer: Ghost Ship Games | Release: 05/13/2020 | Price: 15 dollars (Steam, reduced by 50 percent) | Offer valid until: September 29th
Of course, you’re right: we’ve recommended Deep Rock Galactic quite a few times. Ghost Ship Games’ co-op shooter about space dwarves who are looking for rare raw materials in nested cave systems is also simply a good game. Why exactly, Phil has not only answered this in detail in his column, but also in the Podcast what are you playing
Currently there is also a pretty good reason to join Deep Rock Galactic now – and that is in Munich. That’s where the Oktoberfest starts today and dwarves don’t need to be told twice, even in space. For this reason, the folk festival also takes place in the co-op shooter, allows you to unlock suitable cosmetic items and on top of that there are currently double experience points. So there really isn’t a better time to finally set off with the likeable dwarf characters.
What else is left to say, except: Rock and Stone! Oh yes, of course it should be mentioned that Deep Rock Galactic is also available in PC Game Pass if you are already a subscriber there.

More exciting offers for the weekend
Apart from our dwarf highlight, there are a few recommended games on both Steam and GOG that are currently reduced in price:
- Timberborn: Are you looking for a development strategy game with an unusual scenario? Then Timberborn might be to your liking, because for once you take control of different beaver tribes and have to ensure their survival. (17 dollars, reduced by 20 percent)
- Project Warlock: A shooter that appeals primarily to an older generation. If you get teary-eyed from games like Hexen or the early Doom games, you should quickly find your way around this mix of fantasy and sci-fi. (3 dollars, reduced by 77 percent)
- AI – The Somnium Files: If you can turn a blind eye to the very anime-heavy style, then AI is a really exciting and narratively dense crime adventure awaiting you, in which you don’t just have to investigate crime scenes. (8 dollars, reduced by 80 percent)
- Control – Ultimate Edition: The makers of Max Payne and Alan Wake stage an atmospherically dense and playfully strong third-person shooter. As Jesse Faden you search for different answers in the mysterious Federal Bureau of Control. (10 dollars, reduced by 75 percent)

Control – Test Video: Madness alone is not enough

- Battlefield 2042: On the occasion of the recently started second season, the current part of the series is currently cheaper and at least a lot has changed in terms of technical and playful condition since the release. (27 dollars, reduced by 55 percent)
11:01
Battlefield 2042 – Retest on the biggest multiplayer disappointment of 2021

The most played solo game on Steam
Cyberpunk 2077 suddenly breaks the record
- The Witcher 3 – Game of the Year: One of the best role-playing games of all time, about which everything has actually been told for a long time. If you haven’t set off with Geralt yet, you can now think about it again. (10 dollars, reduced by 80 percent)
- Desperados 3: Developer Mimimi proves after Shadow Tactics that it definitely masters the genre of real-time tactics and at the same time can stage really exciting missions. (15 dollars, reduced by 75 percent)
