Free-To-Play Games Now on Steam

15 Jun, 2011, 9:33 am IST | by Avinash Bali | Gaming

If you’re a PC gamer, chances are you love Valve’s digital game distribution service Steam. I admit Steam never had the smoothest launch known to man but over the years it’s become a haven for PC gamers offering them deals on games not found anywhere else. And today Valve have taken it to the next level by offering players free to play games. They are Spiral Knights, Global Agenda: Free Agent, Forsaken World, Alliance of Valiant Arms and Champions Online (for some reason Forsaken World and Alliance of Valiant Arms aren’t showing up on my list yet).

Who doesn't love free stuff?

Even though Global Agenda and Champions Online are MMOS (Massively Multiplayer Online games), they do not require a subscription fee to play. However if players wish to purchase in-game items for their characters, you’ll have to shell out some real world money.
