Do you have a gaming computer that currently has sufficient hardware performance under the "hood", and then you can enter a large number of PC games. To get the right game collection, you have to go deeper than you think. Therefore, you should regularly check which games are currently available for free.

Many publishers, including Ubisoft, like to advertise for free on free weekends. For example, this means you can play shooting games like Rainbow Six: Siege for free on weekends. We regularly report such promotions and keep you up to date.

Free games and demos

At the same time, some publishers have their own gaming platforms where they can offer and sell games. You will also find free offers such as mature games or games with limited access ("free games") ("free trials"). For example, Epic Games offers free games every week.

Millions of people also play free shooting games such as Fortnite, Apex Legends or tactical action games such as World of Tanks. The following links take you directly to a free overview of various providers:

Sometimes developers often provide game demos for free. These are usually short excerpts of full price titles. You can only play a few levels, a few modes or have a time limit.

You can also start some multiplayer demos again and again and have fun with your friends. If you try a demo, you will also know if you like the game and then buy the game without worrying about risking the wrong purchase.

Browser games and mini games

However, you can play games for free, even without a high-end computer. Browser games are alternatives provided by Valve, Ubisoft or Microsoft. Instead of managing a large number of downloads, you can quickly play directly in your browser. The choice here is also great, maybe you like games like Slither.io and Agar.io.
