There are a lot of free-to-play games available now, covering all sorts of genres. However, many gamers find the way these games try to make money can be frustrating, and it’s tough to figure out which ones are actually enjoyable. That’s why it’s great when a normally paid game becomes free! Right now, Steam is offering the 2017 action RPG Black Desert for free – completely free – until December 18th.
Black Desert usually costs $10, which is reasonable for a sandbox RPG. However, for a limited time, it’s completely free on Steam! This isn’t a trial or demo – if you add it to your library before December 18th, you own the full game forever. If you’re looking for a new RPG but are on a tight budget, this is a great chance to get it without spending any money.
Is Black Desert Worth Playing?
Released in 2017, Black Desert is an action-packed online multiplayer role-playing game where you can explore a vast, beautifully designed open world. You can play alone or team up with others to enjoy exciting combat. While the game has received some downloadable content you can purchase, this free offer doesn’t include those additions. Black Desert regularly releases free updates with new content to keep players engaged.
At a cost of absolutely nothing, it’s definitely worth checking out Black Desert, even though the deal is more like a $10 price cut than a huge discount. But your time is precious, so let’s look closer to see if Black Desert is a game you’ll enjoy. Most players seem to like it – around 72% of reviews are positive. People especially praise the game’s beautiful graphics and extensive character customization options, although getting started can be a little challenging for newcomers.
