Steam users can currently grab a cool freebie for the new co-op game The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu. Although the game has only just been released on Steam, developer ACE Team is giving away some new cosmetics completely free of charge as part of the Free to Keep promotion, but only for a limited time.
The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu is a brand-new co-op game from developer ACE Team. The studio’s two most recent games, Clash: Artifacts of Chaos and The Eternal Cylinder, both have “Very Positive” reviews on Steam, indicating a recent hot streak for the developer. Its latest title sees players form a group of adventurers hunting for treasure in a jungle, where “Lovecraftian horrors warp reality as madness closes in,” with player perception of the world changing thanks to the innovative madness system. It sounds cool enough as it is, and thanks to Steam’s Free to Keep promotion, players have an excellent freebie to add to their collection in The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu.
The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu – Lost Explorers’ Swords Pack is Free to Keep on Steam
Steam users can grab the Lost Explorers’ Swords Pack DLC for the brand-new co-op game, The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, right now, 100% free of charge. The pack comes with two cool-looking sword skins to use in-game, and can be claimed by hitting the “Add to Account” button on the page for the DLC. For anyone planning to get the game, which launched today (July 15), or for those who have already bought it and want a fresh look to take out on an expedition, this is a no-brainer, especially for free.
Gamers interested in this new Steam Free to Keep promotion should act quickly. The giveaway is available as part of the game’s introductory offer, which also includes a 20% discount on the full game. This brings the price down to just $23.99, as opposed to its full $29.99 price tag. However, both this and the free Lost Explorers’ Swords Pack giveaway on Steam are only available until July 29, giving players a few weeks to take advantage. At full price, the DLC will cost $4.99, so it’s good to grab it while it’s available.
Another important note is that gamers must own The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu in order to claim the free Steam to Keep giveaway of the DLC. Players who try to grab it without owning the game will encounter an error, which is why those who have perhaps wishlisted the game in the past, or are simply hearing about it now and are interested, should grab it sooner rather than later.
PC gamers always have a wealth of freebies to claim, whether it be DLC or entire games. It’s not just on Steam, either – most platforms host their own giveaways, with the Epic Games Store and Itch.io being two of the most prevalent. It’s fairly common thought that PC gaming is extremely expensive, but the reality is that there are usually enough giveaways and free-to-play titles for gamers to have plenty of fun without spending too much money.
