Hey, It's The Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth Free-to-Play Weekend

That's right, Civilization: Beyond Earth is free-to-play on Steam this weekend. And in case you're a stock broker working in the high stakes world of high finance and are wondering what free means, it's $0.00. Nada. Zilch. So, for the duration of this weekend play as much Civilization: Beyond Earth as you can. Which in the case of Civilization means 'the entire weekend'. Oh, and this is due to the expansion Rising Tide coming soon. 

That's right, play the game for free and you can get Civilization: Beyond Earth – The Collection, which includes Sid Meier’s Civilization: Beyond Earth, the Exoplanets Map Pack and the upcoming expansion pack, Rising Tide, at a discount. 

Here's the latest on Rising Tide, which launches October 9 on PC.
