In early February, Lenovo Gaming announced a free Steam game giveaway that was so popular that thousands of players were left in a queue for hours: Heavy Rain. This was after Lenovo Gaming announced the free game giveaway, delayed it, and then shot it live, resulting in several fans of the game/genre/Lenovo not receiving a Steam Key. For those who missed out, the good news is Lenovo Gaming decided to run it back.
Lenovo Gaming’s latest Steam Key giveaway begins on April 15 at 9 am PT/12 pm ET, but there are two important caveats worth noting. Because this is a “second chance” giveaway, accounts that have previously claimed the Steam Key will not be able to do so again. Secondly, this is a “restock” of the original giveaway that’s limited to 5,000 Keys, so it’s likely they are all claimed rather quickly. Be sure to act quickly if you need a new free game to play, especially such a popular one.
