Steam’s Officially Making 4 Games Free Until May 18

If you’re a gamer looking for something new to play this weekend, you’re in luck! Several games are currently available to try out for free, but this offer won’t last long – you’ll only have a few days to play.

Right now, you can play four games for free, but this offer ends on May 18th. While you won’t be able to keep the games after the promotion ends, they’re all available at a big discount if you want to buy and keep playing. Here’s the list of the four free games available this weekend.

V Rising

V Rising is an open-world action RPG where you play as a vampire who’s just woken up after centuries of sleep. You’ll need to drink blood to survive – especially avoiding sunlight! The goal is to build a powerful vampire empire by constructing a castle and turning humans into loyal servants. By feeding on enemies, you’ll grow stronger, allowing you to raid enemy camps and plunder villages. You can choose to play solo or team up with – or against – other players online.

V Rising is normally priced at $34.99, but is discounted by 55% to $15.74 until May 21.

Make Way

The most unusual game on the list is a multiplayer racing game where you build the track as you race! It’s a fun mix of games like Mashed, Micro Machines, and Ultimate Chicken Horse. Players quickly connect track pieces to create courses, then race vehicles that can dodge obstacles and use weapons to reach the finish line. Each race features a brand-new course, keeping things fresh and exciting. A recent update called World Tour added even more vehicles and a new Team Mode.

Make Way is normally priced at $14.99, but is discounted by 75% to $3.74 until May 28.

MISERY

This is a cooperative survival game for 1-5 players set in a world devastated by a nuclear disaster. Players act as private military contractors protecting a secret research facility after a nuclear war. Each day, they must explore the dangerous Exclusion Zone, searching for supplies in randomly generated locations like ruined cities and abandoned military bases. They’ll face deadly traps, hostile survivors, and mutated creatures as they scavenge.

MISERY is normally priced at $12.99, but is discounted by 35% to $8.44 until May 21.

Astral Ascent

This weekend, you can also play Astral Ascent for free! It’s a fast-paced platformer with roguelite elements, set in a fantasy world. Players choose from four heroes, each with their own personality, and work together to escape an astral prison guarded by twelve powerful bosses called the Zodiacs. As you play, your characters can unlock many different spells and become stronger on their quest for freedom.

Astral Ascent is normally priced at $24.99, but is discounted by 60% to $9.99 until May 28.

All of the aforementioned games will no longer be able to play for free after May 18, 2026.
