Free games: Age of Wonders 3 is yours to keep on Steam

Get a 100% discount on a substantial strategy package

If you’re looking to sink your teeth into a meaty strategy game this weekend, you’re in luck – Triumph Studios and Paradox Interactive are giving away Age of Wonders III on Steam for the next few days. If you’re looking forward to the Age of Wonders: Planetfall release date, you’re in luck here too, since the giveaway also includes a discount on pre-orders for the upcoming game – or at least its priciest edition.

If you head to the Age of Wonders III Steam page, you can the game to your account there from now until July 15 at 10:00 PDT / 13:00 EDT / 18:00 BST. You know the drill these things – the game will stay tied to your account forever after this, just like a normal purchase. If you want some extra content, you can get all the DLC at a 50% discount during the promotion.

Anyone who downloads Age of Wonders III for the promotion will also get a 10% discount on Age of Wonders: Planetfall Premium Edition, which will include a host of bonus content including the season pass. The regular price is $89.99 / £69.99 / €89.99, so it’s still a substantial cost even with a 10% off bonus applied.

Age of Wonders III is a little bit tactical strategy, a little bit RPG, and a little bit 4X. It’s got a substantial story campaign, a random map generator, multiplayer and co-op battles, and level editing tools. Not a bad deal for zero dollars.
