News & Reviews:   free game

2020 has been pretty crazy, but it has been great for gamers all around. Whether you're a new proud owner of the PlayStation 5 or a casual mobile gamer, we have read plenty of wholesome news about the gaming industry. So without further ado, here are 10 wholesome gaming news that happened this year.

In another weekly free game giveaway by Epic Games Store, the latest three video games that are free to claim are Watch Dogs 2, Football Manager 2020 and Stick It To The Man. All of them are free until 24 September 2020 at 11PM.

Yup, we have another free game to claim but this time it's on GOG platform. As mentioned in the title, the free game is none other than Serious Sam: The First Encounter and you can claim it until 26 August at 10PM.

A few months ago, it was announced that A Total War Saga: Troy would be free to claim for a day and the day has arrived. Available for 24 hours, you can now grab the popular RTS (real-time strategy) game on Epic Games Store and it will end tonight at 9PM. 

In this on-going pandemic season, we have yet another free game to claim and this time, Rocket League will be free-to-play on Epic Games Store. Those who already have the game on their Steam account can also play the game with their friends from Epic Games Store, as a cross-platform feature will be implemented.

Looking to build a new gaming PC? Then you might want to get one of the new AMD Ryzen 3000XT series CPUs. First announced last month, AMD has now launched the AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT, Ryzen 7 3800XT, and Ryzen 5 3600XT CPUs in Malaysia.

If you recall, Ubisoft announced back in May that it will be hosting a live-stream event to replace its annual E3 showcase. The Ubisoft Forward promises to feature new games the publisher has been working. In conjunction with the event, Ubisoft will be giving away free copies of Watch Dogs 2.

From our last news about Epic Games Store, the free game was supposed to be ARK Survival: Evolved but it got delayed for some reason. It was replaced by Overcooked but now that a week has passed, ARK Survival: Evolved is back on track alongside Samurai Showdown: Neogeo Collection. That's right, instead of one free game, you get two free games this time.

Over the past few weeks, the leaks of Epic Games Store free game giveaways have been accurate. First started with GTA V, followed by Civilization VI and Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, we all thought that ARK Survival will be the next one but turns out it was not the case. In fact, turns out it was none other than Overcooked!

In Epic Games' third epic game giveaway, the prediction of Borderlands: The Handsome Collection turned out to be true and it's currently free to claim on the said platform. Just as other previous titles, The Handsome Collection will be free to claim on a limited time until 4 June 2020.
