Steam's Free Weekend Promotion is a time-honored tradition that lets folks check out a handful of free games almost every weekend, and its latest offering includes four distinct titles. Of course, it's worth noting that the free period to play these games comes to an end on November 16 at 10 am PT/ 1 pm ET, so Steam users should delve in as soon as possible.

For anyone new here, Steam's Free Weekend Promotion essentially works the opposite way of the equally popular Steam Free-to-Keep Games Promotion. Whereas the latter lets players keep a game forever as long as they claim it during a free time period, Steam's Free Weekend Promotion lets players play all they want of a game, to their heart's desire, until an expiration date. At that point, Steam users loose access to it (November 16 in this case), but the good news is that anyone who wants to continue their adventures can simply pick it up afterward at a steep discount (typically).

Steam users can currently claim a 9/10 open-world survival game for free, though there's a catch.

This weekend's selection of paid-turned free-to-play games on Steam includes Company of Heroes 3, Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core, IL-2 Sturmovik: Battle of Stalingrad , and Cities: Skylines 2 . While two of the games are geared toward military conflicts, both present them differently, and they're joined by a roguelike shooter and a city-builder. Each game is available from now until 10 am PT/1 pm ET on November 16 .
