HWZ Deal Alert: 26th February 2016 (The Gaming Edition)

Got deal, got talk! GDGT!

Weekends are the best time for gaming. Nowadays, you don't even need to go to a shop to buy games, you simply pay and download them from the comfort of your home. If you head back home early today and start playing, say immediately after dinner, we reckon you could have a good 52 hours or so of gaming time before Monday comes around. So what are you waiting for?!

 

Call of Duty: Black Ops 3

Call of Duty isn’t the world’s most popular FPS for no reason. In Call of Duty: Black Ops III, you play as a robotically-enhanced super soldier tasked to go deep behind enemy lines. The campaign is typical Call of Duty stuff, meaning to say that it doesn’t deviate greatly from past Call of Duty games. However, where the fun is really at is its excellent multiplayer mode. New weapons and scorestreaks aside, Black Ops III also sees the introduction of Specialists, which gives players unique abilities that can be triggered during battles. Best of all, Black Ops III is free to play this weekend, and if you find it fun, you can get it for S$50.75, which represents a discount of 34%. 

 

Arma 3

If Black Ops III feels too “arcadey” for you, there’s Arma 3. Voted the best simulation in the year it was released, Arma 3 takes a completely different approach to warfare as compared to Black Ops III. Realism takes centerstage, and the game features photo-realistic terrain and environments that players can use to their advantage. In fact, some maps are so huge that they cover the equivalent of 270 kilometers. If you want a taste of warfare, Arma 3 is available on Steam for S$36.25 (50% off).
 

 

Witcher 3

Witcher 3 was one of the standout games for 2015 and once you’ve played it, it’s easy to see why. The sheer scope of the world and the vast amount of content is staggering, and there’s seem to be so many things for players to do. In fact, the game was so fantastic that we gave it the Best PC Game award at our recent Tech Awards 2016. Get Witcher 3 at US$29.99 (40% off) here

Get your keyboards, mouse and wallets ready and and #BBBMTL!
