You will need a newer generation console for this, of course.

In honor of the game's fifth anniversary, Ubisoft rolled out a new 60fps patch for Far Cry 5. This update, out now on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S will allow you to run the game at a much higher framerate than what you were used to seeing on consoles.

This 60fps update doesn't seem to include anything else. Meaning, you won't see any next-gen graphical bells and whistles here. I am reading from some users...

Another free weekend? Yes, another free weekend.

For at least the second time now, Activision is offering players a full weekend to play the multiplayer component of Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for free. This free multiplayer weekend will give you access to six multiplayer maps, eight game modes, and access to the first part of the Special Ops Raid.

This free weekend won't include every multiplayer map, perhaps in an effort to save some storage space on your machines....

This sort-of-Left-4-Dead-but-in-space game is free to play all weekend.
Stray Bombay's The Anacrusis is having a free weekend. Which weekend? This weekend. From now through Sunday, you can play the PC version of this cooperative shooter for free through Steam. What's more is that The Anacrusis is 67% off until January 19, allowing you to purchase the game at a discount to keep playing after the weekend ends.

We last took at look at The Anacrusis almost a full year back when...

A free weekend to coincide with the first major Season 1 update.

Activision announces a free weekend for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2's multiplayer component. This free weekend will begin on Thursday, December 15 and will run through until December 19. This weekend provides everyone with access to the game's competitive multiplayer, but with some limitations.

It seems like the free weekend only offers access to just three of the game's multiplayer maps and four game...

The free trial weekend is only for those on consoles.

From September 8 and running through September 11, those with an Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, or PlayStation 5 can play Madden NFL 23 for free. The free trial is being offered because the start of the NFL season begins this week.

You may think that sales are suffering for this year's release of Madden, but apparently that's not the case. EA says that Madden NFL 23 has seen a 30% increase in the number of...

Plus save up to 60% off for a limited time.

Ubisoft announced today that a free weekend for Far Cry 6 has just kicked off. You have from now through to August 7 to play Far Cry 6 for free through either the Ubisoft Store or the Epic Games Store on PC. It's also available to play for free on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and Google Stadia.

Torn Banner Studios and Tripwire Presents are offering players a free weekend to try out Chivalry 2. From March 17 through March 21, you can play Chivalry 2 for free through the Epic Games Store.

As is usual with these sorts of free weekends, there is also a sale for the game running at the same time. From now through March 23, you can save 33% off of the regular price of the game should you decide to purchase it...

This comes as the player count begins to hit all-time lows.

Prior to going on their holiday break, DICE added in a Battlefield 2042 Rush mode to Battlefield Portal. It proved to be a fairly popular mode, at least as far as Portal modes are concerned. It was the much enjoyed Rush mode but played out across the Battlefield 2042 maps, something that just isn't possible in the main game. DICE kept it up longer than most other modes and fans seemed to be pleased.

Unfortunately,...

One month later and already hitting its second sale.

Battlefield 2042 currently has a free play weekend underway on Steam. The free weekend is available through Steam right this very second (so long as you read this before the end date) and can be downloaded and played until your little heart is content.

The free weekend is available (presumably) until December 20 at 1PM (ET). But wait, there's more.

Battlefield 2042 is also on sale from now through December...

Get those preloads started now.

Everybody likes free. That seems to be something that Ubisoft is aware of because they're making Far Cry 5 available to play for free this weekend. You can play it for free via either the Epic Games Store or Ubisoft Connect on PC. You can also play during the free weekend on Xbox, PlayStation, and Stadia. Yeah, it's strangely not going to be available for free on Steam, which is a platform known for its free weekends. Weird.

Anyway, the...

Plus there's a free weekend underway.

Sonic the Hedgehog is so popular these days. He's shown up at the Olympics. He's got a remastered game and an entirely new game coming out soon. I hear he even has a popular drive-in food chain. Now? Now, Sonic the Hedgehog can perform surgery in Two Point Hospital.

Earlier today, a Sonic 30th Anniversary Item Pack was released for Two Point Hospital, a game where you build and manage a whacky hospital of your own. This is a free pack...

Living the dream.

This weekend, from May 27 at 1PM (ET) to May 31 at 1PM (ET), you will be able to download and play Bus Simulator 18 for free through Steam. That's an entire weekend of driving around, picking people up, and dropping them off at their designated bus stop. It's calm, relaxing, and it's certainly not for everyone.

To go along with this free weekend, the game will be on sale for a whopping 70% discount. This sale runs from May 28 at 1PM (ET) through to May...

Where we droppin'?

For this weekend you can play Titanfall 2 for free through Steam. The much beloved game recently saw player counts high all new highs in the wake of the new Apex Legends season, so why not pump those numbers up even higher?

To participate in the free Steam weekend for Titanfall 2, simply head on over to the aptly named Titanfall 2 Steam page. From there you are free to download the game. You have until May 3 at 10AM (PT) for the free weekend. If you...

This includes the game's latest expansion and all other content.

This is just a little heads up for those of you looking for something to do this weekend. Over on Steam, you can download and play Warhammer: Vermintide 2 for free over this weekend (ends on April 25th). This free weekend comes during the same week that the free Chaos Wastes expansion was released for the game.

As with most free weekends, this one is accompanied by a massive discount on the game should you...

This game, curiously, has no actual dogs.

If you are one of the billions of people out there who have not yet picked up Watch Dogs: Legion, you will have a chance to try it before you buy it. This coming weekend, anybody with an Ubisoft account will be able to download and play a portion of Watch Dogs Legion. Afterwards, as is common with free weekends, you will be able to purchase the game at a steep discount.

All of this kicks off beginning tomorrow, March 25. From then...
