DOOM is free to keep on PC in double game giveaway that'll save you $40

DOOM is free to keep forever in a PC giveaway, and this offer includes a second game to claim. But don’t wait around forever, because this is a limited-time double deal that’ll save you $40.

In 2016, the DOOM series received a reboot that modernised the franchise with vastly improved visuals, gameplay, and exploration - all the same core ingredients that made the original games so successful all those years ago. Some may even say that Bethesda’s DOOM (2016) is the best game in the series.

Claim the brilliant DOOM reboot for free

You can claim DOOM (2016) via Amazon’s Luna gaming service, which is included with an Amazon Prime subscription at no extra cost. It’s a download code to be redeemed on GOG, and once downloaded onto your PC, it’s yours to keep.

Currently, the RRP for DOOM (2016) is $19.99/£15.99, giving you a 100% saving. Just to give you insight into how fantastic this game is, DOOM (2016) received Metacritic scores in the mid-to-high 80s when it first launched.

Why DOOM is one of the most important video game franchises ever

Alongside Wolfenstein 3D, DOOM is one of the most important video games of all time that helped revolutionise the first-person shooter genre when it originally launched in 1993, with its influence still felt today.

In the years that followed, id Software’s DOOM set the standard of what’s expected in FPS action, exploration, and visuals long before the 2016 reboot. Well over three decades later, it’s still one of the most enjoyable retro games that you can boot up on modern systems.

DOOM is not the only freebie you can claim forever

The other PC freebie in question is Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit, a side-scrolling, 2D pixel-art offering that’s a little different from the traditional FNAF games that are played in a 3D first-person perspective.

But don’t be fooled by its visual presentation, because Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit has plenty of horror, but places more of an emphasis on its story, exploration and puzzle-solving than the original games.

It’s also based on the Fazbear Frights book series of the same name. What’s more, it has an interesting element with its protagonist, Oswald, being able to time travel between the present day and 1985. Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit has also scored high on Metacritic with 87.

At the full RRP, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit sells for $19.99/£16.75. This code is redeemable on the Epic Games Store. With both games combined, you’re making a 100% saving of $39.98/£32.74.

How long can you claim DOOM and FNAF: Into the Pit for free?

DOOM (2016) and Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit are only available for free via Luna until November 4, 2026. Even if you’re not able to play them right now on PC, they’re still worth claiming, just in case you’re able to in the future.

DOOM (2016) and Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit are also available on PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch consoles, albeit not for free.
