Was on sale a lot recently so it makes sense. The timing is...odd though. Is Hogwarts Legacy 2 getting announced or something?

I wonder how much this cost, biggest game since GTA V.

I seemingly can't claim it... (error 500), gonna have to chalk this up to idealogical activists doing a DDDDOS or something

megatron · 12 Dec 2025 at 03:02

That's a big game for free right there.

TrojanWhore · 12 Dec 2025 at 03:07

... and it's now saying 'unavailable' :/

I wish they wouldn't, all this does it tell people not to buy Hogwarts 2 which means that there might not be a Hogwarts 3.

Yay... claimed! Took a while to go through, I assume cloudflare HQ is burning to the ground right now

It wouldn't influence me, I'm a one game at a time person. I will sink many happy hours into battlefield 6 without looking at another game.

Yeah I don't see why it would put people off playing the second (if anything, may drag people into the franchise who may not have bothered before)
I probably won't play it for a good while yet, I have years, or maybe decades, of backlog still (I would say I'd like to wait until I can run it maxed out, but that ship sailed a while back)

Hogwarts Legacy, Wow, that's an amazing freebie!

Grim5 · 12 Dec 2025 at 03:53

Omg it's half life 3

Noxia · 12 Dec 2025 at 04:17

Still rather buy it on steam if I hadn't already.

SaBBz · 12 Dec 2025 at 06:43

Amazing free game!

Drizmod · 12 Dec 2025 at 07:13

That's a pretty good first giveaway. Still nothing beats the GTAV free giveaway that they had years back

adidan · 12 Dec 2025 at 07:27

Great giveaway, added to my library.

Will I ever play it? Got dozens of other freebies I've not touched yet so who knows.

Personality+ · 12 Dec 2025 at 07:30

Added, even though I already played it

Good to have it on a 2nd storefront.
