Ubisoft is giving three games away for free until May 5: Assassin’s Creed II, Rayman Legends, and Child of Light. The company’s store also has a number of titles that are free to try as demos, including Tom Clancy’s The Division. Four versions of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla can be pre-ordered for the PC, with the Collector’s Edition priced at US$199.99.

Ubisoft has some tempting offers in its store at the moment that gamers can have for completely free. Rayman Legends is normally priced at US$29.99 but can currently be had for nothing, and the US$14.99 Child of Light is also available gratis until May 5. However, arguably the pick of the bunch is the free Deluxe Edition of Assassin’s Creed II. This adventure game is usually priced at US$19.99 but is in Ubisoft's store as a free giveaway for the next few days.

Those with a Uplay account can login to the store and find Assassin’s Creed II available for free PC download. The PC version of the game, which came out in 2010, is highly rated and the deluxe edition comes with bonus areas and missions. As for Assassin’s Creed game editions, it seems the Holiday 2020 release Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, which will be available on the PC, PS4, Xbox One, Stadia, and the PS5 and Xbox Series X next-gen consoles, has no less than four editions for the PC that can be pre-ordered via Ubisoft.

The standard edition of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla is a somewhat weighty US$59.99 while the Gold Edition that comes with an additional game season pass can be pre-ordered for US$109.99. The Ultimate Edition of the title comes with the season pass and a bunch of packs, including a berserker gear pack and a longship pack, and this will cost US$119.99. (The Ultimate Edition is only available for PC download.) The Collector’s Edition of Assassin’s Creed Valhalla, priced at US$199.99, comes with an exclusive figurine, a book, a statuette, lithographs, game soundtrack, and a very fancy box.
