What’s free on Steam, Epic and Co. right now? Also this weekend you can play a few titles for free or even keep them forever. Strategy pearls, action roguelikes and party games are part of the game. So most tastes will definitely be satisfied.
But let’s not waste any more time and let’s get started:
Highlight of the week: Crusader Kings 3

33 million murder plots: Crusader Kings 3 takes bloody stock in the birthday video
Genre: Globalstrategie| Developer: Paradox Interactive | Release: 1. September 2020 | Free to play until: 12. September 2022
The Middle Ages were a fascinating era. Intrigues, incest, religious wars and hundreds of other exciting things make this period so interesting. Crusader Kings 3 brings all these different facets of the Middle Ages together like no other game.
Each round can be different: Do you want to conquer Europe as a cannibal pagan and eat the Pope? It can be done with enough patience! Or are you more interested in strengthening your dynasty and even impregnating your highly intelligent sister? Also possible! Or maybe you die unspectacularly and unpredictably while hunting because you fell off your horse.
You notice: While Crusader Kings 3 is primarily a strategy game, it has a whole load of role-playing elements at its core, and it’s certainly not going to get any less. Matching the new addon Friends & Foes you can download the global strategy hit Play Steam for free for the weekend. Check out the trailer for the DLC below:
