Steam is handing out two full, no-strings-attached games this week. Until November 9 at 10am PT / 1pm ET, the co-op heist shooter PAYDAY 3 and the 4X strategy game Age of Wonders 4 are both 100% free to claim and keep forever — no purchase required, just add them to your library before the window closes.

PAYDAY 3 — Free Through November 9
Starbreeze’s co-op heist shooter normally runs $29.99, and it’s free to claim on Steam right now. Once the free claim window closes, it drops into a 70%-off sale until November 12, pricing it at $8.99 for anyone who misses the free grab. If you’re planning to gear up with heists and DLC afterward, a Steam Wallet Code from Dragon4Deals covers it without needing a card on file.

Age of Wonders 4 — Also Free Through November 9
Triumph Studios’ fantasy 4X normally lists for around $49.99 and is claimable free on Steam until the same November 9 deadline. After the free period, it settles into a 60%-off sale priced at $19.99 through November 18 — worth knowing if you want to pick up its expansions too. Our strategy game gift card picks and general PC game codes both work for topping up ahead of the discount window.
Both claims are first-come: once you add either game to your Steam library during the free window, it’s yours permanently, free period or not. Worth grabbing even if you don’t play either immediately.
