This thread will no longer be updated.

This used to be a thread called "Limited time, 100% Free-to-keep PC games right now", where I, together with many helpful members of the community, documented which PC games were free to claim at any given moment. I started it when the COVID-19 pandemic started in the whole world and developers/publishers were doing promotions faster than one could keep track of everything. Since the situation is calmer now, keeping track of things to that level isn't needed.

The thread is now a free games news thread which relies on comments to function - if you find an interesting offer for a free game, feel free to comment and let others know! Here I have also put links to useful places where you can find out about and/or collect free games as they appear.

I copy pasted it
[Switch] (Other) Pokémon Sword & Shield - Galarica Wreath
Pokemon Korea has released a special mystery gift code for Pokemon Sword & Shield.

The code was shared via Pokemon Korea’s Crown Tournament livestream, and will allow players to redeem a Galarica Wreath. The Galarica Wreath is used to evolve Galarian Slowpoke into Galarian Slowking, and is normally somewhat difficult to come by.

The code is CR0WNF1NALS and can be redeemed through the following steps:

Launch your Pokémon Sword or Pokémon Shield game.

Select Mystery Gift on the X menu.

Select Get a Mystery Gift.

Select Get with Code/Password to connect to the internet.

Enter the password CR0WNF1NALS

Watch as the gift arrives in your game. Be sure to save your game.

The code will only be valid until 7th February 14:59 UTC, so be sure to redeem it while you can.
