Jacking In
Summer gaming sales have become a long-standing tradition at this point, with online storefronts like Steam and GOG and company-owned clients like the PlayStation Store all vying for players’ hard-earned cash with increasingly lucrative sales. This year’s GOG Summer Sale will be wrapping up tomorrow, but before then they’ve released one last incentive to bring you to their store – Shadowrun Returns, Shadowrun Hong Kong and Shadowrun Dragonfall are all available for free on GOG right now!
Based on the classic tabletop game series, Shadowrun Returns is a turn-based tactical RPG developed by Harebrained Schemes after a massively successful Kickstarter. It takes place in a fantasy cyberpunk world, full of orcs, elves, dwarves and trolls. You play as a shadowrunner, a criminal specializing in under-the-table jobs for the wealthy and powerful. Be it stealing crucial classified intel, hacking into and crippling government systems or carrying out clandestine assassinations, shadowrunners are the ones who get the job done.
The Shadowrun Trilogy features three titles: Shadowrun Returns and its DLC campaign Dragonfall, which was later reworked into its own standalone title, along with Shadowrun Hong Kong. Dragonfall takes players into the free state of Berlin, where they stumble upon a mystery involving a centuries-old dragon that may not be as dead as they thought. Shadowun Hong Kong, meanwhile, takes players into the metropolis of the Hong Kong Free Enterprise Zone, entirely controlled by corporations, where they discover a conspiracy to take control of the immense Walled City.
The Shadowrun Trilogy giveaway is the finale of the GOG Summer Sale, which also features great deals on hundreds of other titles – Critically acclaimed games like Disco Elysium, Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice and The Outer Worlds are on sale for up to 75% off, with plenty of other indie and retro titles making it all the way up to 90% off! To claim the Shadowrun Trilogy, you’ll just need to log in to the GOG storefront – the offer is right there on the front page.You’ll need to hurry, though, as this limited- time offer is only available until 1PM UTC on June 28th!
