Steam is currently giving you the chance to try one of 2025’s strangest upcoming games for free, and it’s well-worth a go.
This year has been a great year for games, with so many good releases including Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, which you can play today at no additional cost via Xbox Game Pass.

Next year will seemingly be just as good though, with heavy-hitters on the way like a Ghost Of Tsushima sequel, Monster Hunter Wilds, and of course how could we forget GTA VI.
That said there are other games too, one of which is the weird and wonderful The Alters, which you can try for free on Steam right now.
Now I attended a preview for The Alters and it was one of my most anticipated games of 2024 before we unfortunately got delayed, so now it’s my most anticipated game of 2025 instead.
The Alters is about Jan, an astronaut stranded on an alien world where he’s only got himself to keep him company, literally.
The game sees Jan cloning himself, but the clones are actually versions of himself that took different paths through time. For instance one clone is a version of himself that specialises in botany, whereas another dedicated their life to engineering.
I enjoyed what I played so I’d wholeheartedly recommend trying the free demo on Steam right now, which will give you a taste of the open-world exploration, base building, and more that the game has to offer.
The game is now scheduled to launch sometime toward the beginning of 2025, and will involve a lot of mysteries, puzzles, and fights for survival as Jan attempts to escape the grizzly fate before him, and right a few wrongs along the way.
