Steam Giving Away Critically-Acclaimed 2014 Game for Free

PC gamers can go to Steam right now and claim the critically-acclaimed 2014 game Endless Legend free of charge. One big advantage to PC gaming is that the various storefronts, like Steam and the Epic Games Store, offer free games on a regular basis, and unlike the “free” games on Xbox, PlayStation, and Switch, the free PC games are genuinely 100% free. That means PC gamers can claim these free games without signing up for a subscription service like PlayStation Plus or Xbox Game Pass.

While the Epic Games Store gives away free games every week, Steam free games are more sporadic. Steam sometimes goes a long while without a free game giveaway, but other times, multiple games are up for grabs at once. Right now, Steam users have a few different free games to choose from, including the critically-acclaimed Endless Legend.

Endless Legend is free on Steam from now until May 23. Endless Legend, for the uninitiated, was originally released in 2014 and earned mostly positive reviews from critics. According to review aggregate site OpenCritic, Endless Legend has earned an 84 overall rating, making it one of the highest-rated new game releases of 2014. User score ratings for Endless Legend have been high as well, giving the game an impressive “Very Positive” overall rating on the platform. Anyone curious about Endless Legend now has no excuse not to try it out now that it’s completely free on Steam.

What is Endless Legend?

Endless Legend is a 4X turn-based strategy game developed by Amplitude Studios and published by Sega. Like other games in the genre, Endless Legend is about building a civilization, with players given various means of doing so. This includes developing technologies and interacting with other leaders in the game world. Endless Legend‘s fantasy setting helps it stand apart from other games in the genre, and it’s one of the reasons why the game earned such high marks back in 2014.

Endless Legend isn’t the only free game available on Steam right now. 100% Orange Juice is also free on Steam for a limited time, as is Machinika Museum. 100% Orange Juice is a digital board game, whereas Machinika Museum is a 3D puzzle game inspired by titles like Myst and The Room. As with Endless Legend, the other free Steam games are only free for a limited time, so anyone interested should be sure to claim them for their digital libraries as soon as possible.
