Are you ready to hit the road with one of the most realistic and unforgiving driving games out there? Now's your chance to find out, because Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is free to play right now on Steam, and you owe it to yourself to test your motoring mettle.
Expeditions: A MudRunner Game is the latest entry in a series of driving simulation games that go all in on realism, right down to the ruts your vehicle makes in the mud. They're not just there to look pretty, either, it's entirely possible you'll get stuck in a mire and have to use a winch to painstakingly pull yourself out.
If those kinds of off-road shenanigans make your eyes glaze over, then Expeditions: A MudRunner Game probably isn't for you. If, on the other hand, the idea of struggling through rugged terrain, sometimes at a snail's pace, makes you grin, then congratulations, you're this game's target audience. And, from now until March 3, you can roam Expeditions' off-road open worlds absolutely free.
Make no mistake, as with any MudRunners game, there'll be moments so frustrating you'll want to crush your PC beneath the wheels of a 4×4. Preparation will be crucial, as well as the vehicle you choose to tackle each of the game's diverse tasks, but success promises to be so very, very sweet.
The game has just dropped its second season and while that DLC is seemingly not included in this free weekend, the base game is 40% off and the complete edition, with both seasons, is 43% off. The second season adds in snow which, as we confirmed in our SnowRunner review, is so much more than just white mud.
You've got from now until March 3 to play Expeditions: A MudRunner Game for free. If you're sufficiently hooked, you'll be happy to hear that sandbox semi-sequel RoadCraft is just a couple of months away.
