Steam adds a ton of free games you can download and keep forever

If you’re after some free video games that you can download now via Steam and keep forever, then you’re in the right place my fellow money-saving friend.

Keeping up with the financial cost of maintaining our favourite hobby does not come cheap. This is why subscription services such as PlayStation Plus and Xbox Game Pass can be a godsend with the monthly cost being cheaper than a single newly released AAA game.

What’s more, free-to-play titles can be a good way to go in an attempt to cut costs with the likes of Call of Duty: Warzone, Destiny 2 and Fortnite, to name a few saving us plenty of money, if we can avoid the temptation of making regular microtransaction purchases.

That being said, the PC platform Steam is also a great way to check out some free video games, not only with a plethora of playable demos but also full titles that we can download and keep forever on PC.

As brought to our attention by the Twitter account Free Steam Games, here are six games that you can download right now for keeps:
