Steam has activated a new free weekend promotion.
How the Steam free promotion works
Unlike the “Free to Keep” promotions, where the game remains in your library forever, this is a Free Weekend.
This means that GreedFall: The Dying World can only be played for free until the promotion ends. Once the free period is over, you will need to purchase it to continue playing.
The offer also includes a special discount valid until May 27, bringing the price of the RPG down to about 35 dollars.
