How to get PC games for free (Legally)

 

Every gamer wants to play the latest and the greatest PC titles available today but games tend to be overpriced a lot and not everybody has the finances to purchase games, as well as I, wouldn't recommend pirating games as not only it is wrong but also a huge disrespect to the developers of the game which exhausted their time and money in developing the game. Among all these problems it is not easy to get PC games for free and cheap but here I am to solve this problem and if not wholly, will try to help as much as possible.

So here are some awesome ways you can get Pc games for free legally and probably without spending money or by very little.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Steam

Steam as you all probably know is a very famous platform for purchasing and claiming games. The platform developed by the valve is really good considering the large library of games it has compared to its rivals. Now here's the important part: Steam has 4 to 6 annual sales (Summer sale, Winter sale, Helloween sale, Lunar new year sale), and the popular games which are usually really great go on humungous discounts during these sales. So I would highly recommend checking out these sales for deals as well as steam also gives free games some times which are also really good but it is unpredictable and kind of absurd.

GOG Games

GOG games is a game distribution platform developed by CD Projekt RED( THe developer of great games like Witcher 3) which hosts games from various studios and platforms. The great thing about GOG is that the games you purchase are DRM free which means that you actually have full ownership of the game as well as when you download the game it first downloads the offline installer and then installs the games, so you can actually play the game offline without any worries.GOG also gives free games but it is also unpredictable like steam though it will mail you every time there is a free game.

Epic Games 

Epic Games is at the top of every platform in giving free games since you all know this game distribution platform developed by Tim Sweeny( the same one who developed Fortnite) gives a free game every week and maybe sometimes more than one game a week. Epic Games also host sales like other platforms although it is only once or twice a year. I would recommend you to check out the store during summer in May and June since at that time the store gives great free games.

NOW SOME GREAT APPS TO BE AWARE OF DEALS AND FREE GAMES:

Steam DB

Steam DB is a great website and service to check out for deals and free games on steam. It is a really well-made service where you can link your steam id and also check the lowest prices of games and according to the various regions as well. It also has some great features like game bundles and packages support and is also available as an add-on for browsers.

Free Epic games 

Free Epic games is actually an android app where you can be aware all the time for free games from various platforms like GOG, Steam, and Epic games. The app also sends you notifications whenever there is a free game available to claim.You can also easily link your various platform accounts and easily claim games on the app itself.
