The weekend is here, so it's time to unwind and do some gaming. Phantom Blade Zero has taken the world by storm with its incredibly successful launch. It captured the interest of critics and gamers alike, racking up extraordinary reviews and quickly reaching the top of the charts on Steam.
But hey, Wuxia soulslike RPGs aren't everyone's cup of tea. If you're looking for something to keep you busy while you wait for Grand Theft Auto 6 to come out or just want a game to keep you busy for the weekend, we've got you covered. Steam and the Epic Games Store always have a rotating list of free-to-play and free-to-keep video games, while subscription services like PlayStation Plus, Xbox Game Pass, and Amazon's Luna offer a library of things to play (if you pay).
Here's what's free to play this weekend and beyond (Oct. 30-Nov. 5). If you’re into fixed-camera narrative adventures that add a dash of eccentricity and horror (think Silent Hill and Resident Evil), then Sorry We’re Closed is right up your alley. Protagonist Michelle has been cursed by a demon.
As she searches for a way to break the curse and regain her freedom, she must become acquainted with the other residents on her street and use the power of the Third Eye to help them… or not. How you navigate this story is entirely up to you. Relive it again to experience the various endings that will depend entirely on your choices throughout the game.
Brian Clarker, creator of The Mortuary’s Assistant, was working on a Paranormal Activity game for Paramount. However, when he asked for more time to complete it, the project was canceled instead. Thankfully, Clarker was given authorization to publish the game as long as he removed any mention of the Paranormal Activity franchise.
That is why players can now claim Playable Archive for free on Steam, making it a great indie horror pick for Halloween. Satirical newspaper The Onion has developed its own game: The Onion Voting Simulator 3D. It is designed to incentivize America to cast its vote in the midterm elections.
