A developer will upload a second copy of the game that is purely a demo for free. While Steam does sometimes offer free demos for games, it is usually on the developer or publisher side. Importantly, you will first have to download all 36GB of the game before you can play it, even for the 90 minute time period.Īccording to a blog post on Steam, this free trial will end on 29th March.

Dead Space (2023) is currently on promotion as well until 23rd March, so perhaps the free trial is meant to lure players into buying the full game – at R799.96 as of time of writing. You will have to be using the Steam Client to see this option as the browser version of the page doesn’t populate it. The digital game store has launched a 90-minute free trial version of the game, where you simply have to head to its Steam page and click on “Try Dead Space – Free Trial.” You can now play the remastered version of Dead Space for free on Steam, at least for the next week. Players will have to download the full game when they begin the 90 minute trial, but their progress will continue if they actually buy the game.

The first game to be offered this way is the remaster of Dead Space, from publisher EA.

Steam has a new feature where certain games will get a time-limited free trial – in this case, it will last until next week.
