This weekend, two top-rated PC games are available for free on Steam.

Steam frequently offers PC gamers the opportunity to explore new titles without any cost, whether through temporary free-to-play events or giveaways that allow you to keep the games forever. These promotions are a great way to dive into lesser-known games you might not have considered, or to rally some friends for a weekend of multiplayer fun.

Currently, two distinct games with solid reviews are available for free play until August 4. While you won’t be able to keep them after the promotional period, both titles are also on sale for those who want to continue playing.

The first title, Over The Top: WWI, is an expansive World War I shooter that debuted in March 2026. Its large-scale battles draw comparisons to contemporary shooters like Battlefield 6 and Hell Let Loose, featuring infantry alongside tanks, artillery, and aircraft on maps that can host up to 200 players. Although it may feel rougher and less polished than mainstream titles, this rawness adds to its charm: explosions can demolish structures and alter the battlefield, while players can dig trenches and fortify positions as the match progresses.

This free weekend coincides with the release of the US Expeditionary Forces update, which introduces the United States into the fray, along with new maps, uniforms, weapons, vehicles, and a first-person perspective.

The second free-to-play title is Front Mission 3: Remake, a turn-based tactical RPG centered around battles featuring heavily customizable mechs known as Wanzers. Launched on Steam in January, this modern remake of the 1999 PlayStation classic boasts updated graphics, enhanced animations, reorchestrated music, and a new quick combat mode.

In contrast to the large-scale skirmishes of Over The Top: WWI, Front Mission 3 offers a slower, more strategic experience. Players take on the role of Kazuki Takemura and his squad as they navigate a military conspiracy involving corporations, secret weapons, and rival nations. The gameplay focuses on positioning and customizing individual Wanzer parts and weapons, making it an excellent choice for fans of mechs, JRPGs, and turn-based strategy.

Both games are available for free on Steam for a limited time, providing an easy opportunity to try something different without any financial commitment. If either title resonates with you, the temporary discounts will make it more affordable to continue your adventure once the free period concludes.
