free Steam games, but only until 10:00 PT / 13:00 ET / 18:00 GMT on January 19.
While the promotion doesn't mean you get to keep the game forever, you can do so if you purchase it – and it's on offer to coincide with the free-to-play period. Until January 20, the base game is available at 70% off – down to $9 / £7.19 – while its DLC is up to 66% off.
"During the free week, all Steam s will have free access to the Arma 3 base game plus the Arma 3 Apex expansion," Bohemia says in a press release. "This also includes Arma 3's full The East Wind single-player campaign and the Apex Protocol co-op campaign. New players might also familiarize themselves with the game's controls via the Prologue tutorial campaign."
Arma 3 first launched in 2013 and has since received a number of expansions and DLC packs. We think it's one of the free games, if this Arma 3 promotion has whetted your appetite for cheap gaming.
