Let's be honest, this hasn't been the best launch for a Battlefield game. It's had… problems. But, hey, don't you wish you could at least get a look at it and try it out without the baggage of actually having to pay for it first? Now you can! Steam has a free weekend for Battlefield 2042, so now you can see for yourself if it's sorted its issues out or if you're going to spend 80% of your time getting your face kicked in by hovercrafts. If nothing else, at least the experience is free!
Elsewhere, the GOG.com Winter Sale has begun! Thousands of DRM-free games are now on sale and that includes The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth, which just got added to the GOG.com catalog. You can also check out games like Cyberpunk 2077, Inscryption, Psychonauts 2, The Forgotten City, Stardew Valley, and many more. Blizzard has launched its own holiday sale, offering up deals on Call of Duty: Vanguard, Diablo 2 Resurrected, and Crash Bandicoot 4. The Ubisoft Store has a winter sale up and running, which includes free copies of Rayman Origins. And last, but certainly not least, the Epic Games Store has kicked off its holiday sale, offering a vast chunk of the EGS catalog at a gracious discount. On top of that, Epic Coupons are back, so use it to take some of the sting off that Final Fantasy 7 Remake sticker price or save it for a later sale!
