Steam users can claim a code for Quantic Dream’s Heavy Rain completely free of charge via Lenovo Gaming on May 27. There will be 5,000 codes total for the upcoming Heavy Rain giveaway, so gamers will need to act fast if they want to ensure they get their hands on the 2010 masterpiece.
Heavy Rain is the third title from Detroit: Become Human developer Quantic Dream. This narrative-driven title is one of the few games where every choice really does matter, creating a branching narrative that captivated gamers upon its release in 2010. Initially launched as a PlayStation 3 exclusive, the game would later receive PS4 and PC ports in 2016 and 2019, respectively.

This isn’t the first time Lenovo Gaming has given away Heavy Rain. The first giveaway was in February earlier this year, and the keys were gone extremely quickly. Afterward, the company quickly followed up with plans for a second giveaway, which was initially scheduled for April 15. While this went ahead, technical issues early on meant that it was later delayed to the current May 27 date. Given how quickly the free Heavy Rain Steam keys went last time around, anyone interested will need to get in the queue early and act fast to secure a key.
