Heroes of Might and Magic series, Farcry 1&2, Prince of Persia series, Settlers 3, and many more Ubisoft games 50% off, until Tuesday, May 21 at 3:59AM GMT

So, we’ve heard you like variety. We can relate, everyone loves browsing and picking their favorites. That’s why we thought Ubisoft catalog would make for a terrific weekend promo. You can pick and mix from a selection of about 40 Top Ubisoft Titles, 50% off this weekend. Games of all age, shape, and size await you in the promo page. Whatever your taste in games might be, you’ll find something nice and exciting to make your weekend more entertaining. Let’s take a quick look at one or two titles, shall we?

Heroes of Might and Magic is a game series so prominent, that it surely needs no introduction. In fantasy turn-based strategies it’s quite hard to find a match for this legendary saga that challenges our strategic and management skills since the year 1996. Based on the successful setting of the fan-favorite classic cRPG, Might and Magic, it achieved a great balance between accessibility and complexity that resonates perfectly with gamers. After all these years Heroes of Might and Magic 3: Complete Edition is still considered by many to be the perfect 4X turn-based title. Some fans, however, prefer the more modern Heroes of Might and Magic 5: Bundle, that takes the beloved mechanics into the beautiful realm of 3D graphics. That’s only two titles, though. All of our Might and Magic games, strategy and RPG alike, can be found 50% off in the promo page.

Farcry and Farcry 2 introduced a new quality to the First-Person Shooter genre. With large, seamless locations, varied environment, open-ended gameworld, and a healthy dose of realism (just enough to make the combat believable, while keeping it entertaining and fast), it gave the shooter fans the best kind of story-driven sandbox experience. It’s also worth noting, that the graphics in both games look excellent even now, years after release. If you enjoy FPS games, these two undoubtedly belong in your GOG.com DRM-free collection.

Right, let’s stop here. We don’t want to spoil the excitement of discovering what other gems await you in the promo page. Well let you find out that games such as Assassin’s Creed: Director’s Cut, Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell, and Rayman Forever are also 50% off this weekend all for yourselves. Ooops. Let’s just pretend that didn’t happen. You should go to the promo page, now. The promo lasts until Tuesday, May 21 at 3:59AM GMT.
