That means that PC gamers will be able to add Stellaris to their library at no extra cost as of 8 May onwards, according to a Reddit post by Paradox.
“We’re the Stellaris team, and this month we're celebrating nine incredible years of exploring the galaxy with you!” the post reads.
“We just released our latest DLC BioGenesis and we’re also kicking off a free weekend on Steam starting May 8th — a perfect time to jump in, start a new story, or bring some new friends along for the ride.”
First released back in 2016, Stellaris is a “sci-fi grand strategy game” set in a galaxy full of wonders.
Players will be able to meet diverse alien races, discover strange new worlds each with their own unexpected events, and expand the reach of their very empire due to limitless possibilities.
“Get ready to explore, discover and interact with a multitude of species as you journey among the stars,” the official Steam synopsis for Stellaris reads.
“Forge a galactic empire by sending out science ships to survey and explore, while construction ships build stations around newly discovered planets. Discover buried treasures and galactic wonders as you spin a direction for your society, creating limitations and evolutions for your explorers. Alliances will form and wars will be declared.”
Its DLC, BioGenesis, was released earlier this week and so now is the perfect time to grab the best game and try it out before diving into the brand-new content.
Stellaris will be free on Steam starting on 8 May so don’t miss out.
