Stuck for issues to play this weekend? After providing their exhaustive JRPG lineup at a pittance final week, Square Enix have this week gutted the value of their Eidos Anthology bundle on Steam as a part of their “Stay Home & Play” marketing campaign – providing 54 PC classics, modern bangers and weird curiosities for just below 30 quid, in help of charities affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
In hopes of coercing you into staying inside for a number of hundred hours extra, Square Enix at the moment are providing a sizeable chunk of Eidos’ decades-long lineage at 95% off. That’s over £530 price of overwhelmingly nice games occurring Steam for £28.38/$39.24, with 100% of the proceeds going to charities and meals banks throughout North America and Europe.
The 54-game bundle features a stable serving to of some traditional PC gaming. At a look, you’ve bought each Tomb Raider (minus 2018’s Shadow Of The Tomb Raider), all of the Thief games (together with the bad one) and the complete Deus Ex lineup. Beyond the 90s pedigree, although, you’re additionally wanting on the first three Just Cause games, the entire first season of Life Is Strange, and the good Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition, amongst others. Should preserve you busy, I reckon.
The bundle additionally features a heaping load of DLC for a lot of of its more moderen choices, not counted inside that 54-title depend. Granted, a bundle this massive can’t simply embody bangers. Alongside some middling sequels and weird curiosities like Omikron: The Nomad Soul, grabbing the bundle will curse you with possession of Daikatana – a game that’s exactly as terrible as its reputation suggests, if John Walker’s to be believed.
Ah effectively. At least it’s for a great trigger.
