Who doesn’t love great deals on PC games? Sure, there are the usual suspects, but I want to take a moment to talk about one of my favorite places to go: Green Man Gaming. You can find a wide variety of PC games for sale, including DLC, new releases, and more. But one of the reasons I like it so much is thanks to a membership loyalty program called XP. Just like in games, you can level up your XP tier, essentially by purchasing games and content. Typically, to reach the top Gold XP tier you’d have to buy a lot of goods. But thanks to a Black Friday sale, you can get access free — just use code XPDIGITAL.
You’re probably wondering why that’s a great deal or why it matters. With Gold XP you get exclusive discounts, including monthly vouchers on hot titles, but best of all, you generally get extra discounts on top of what’s available in sales. So, you end up saving even more. That’s precisely the case with Green Man Gaming’s current Black Friday sale. Although, some of these games are already at a steep discount you can save even more here. Plus, the upgrade to Gold XP is free so why not take advantage? The free Gold XP will only be available from November 22 to December 3, so don’t waste any time.
Let’s start with the benefit of Gold XP because you’re getting that free. Remember, usually you have to purchase games and DLC to upgrade your tiers — which is precisely what I had to do. This offer means you don’t have to spend a dime but you can still reap the rewards.
Those vouchers are awesome, by the way. Green Man Gaming regularly launches new offers and they’re exclusive to XP members. But they include steep discounts on some pretty hot titles and that’s outside of these Black Friday and holiday sales. That’s just a regular thing!
As for what kind of deals you can expect in this Black Friday sale, there are some good ones:
The standard edition of Monster Hunter Rise is just $9, while the edition that includes the Sunbreak expansion is only $17 — normally $60. The new Silent Hill 2 remake is only $42, normally $70. Dragon's Dogma 2 is $34, normally $70. There are a ton of Steam Deck-verified games on sale, too. It’s not just older titles either. There are new releases on sale, as well. For example, Monster Hunter Wilds is $59, instead of $70. Kingdom Come Deliverance II is $51, instead of $60. Even Assassin's Creed Shadows is on sale for $62 instead of $70.
Plus, with new rotating deals, Gold XP perks, and various events you can save more and get more just for buying your favorite games — many of which you were probably going to buy anyway, let’s be honest. For instance, purchase any Star deal during Black Friday and you’ll get a free bonus pack. All keys are digital, and available for their respective platforms like Steam or Ubisoft Connect. Moreover, Green Man Gaming works with publishers directly to get legitimate keys.
Be right back, I’m going to grab Belatro finally, it’s only $11 (with code STAR15) and it’s a Star Deal. If you do head over there, don’t forget the coupon code XPDIGITAL for your free Gold XP access.
The Call of Duty franchise has held a special place in my heart ever since I played my first Black Ops game back in 2010. That game's campaign was something else, with twists and turns that culminated in a mind-blowing finale. We can all admit that compared to those older campaigns, the recent CODs have been lackluster at best, and a complete and utter disappointment at worst. The reboot of Modern Warfare did give me some hope, as the first two installments were actually quite good, but the third game left such a bad taste in my mouth that I wasn’t exactly expecting much from Modern Warfare 4.
After recently finishing the campaign, I can say that this installment is nothing like the recent releases and instead feels closer to the franchise’s roots. For the first time in a long while, the campaign comes across as well-crafted rather than rushed to hit a release date. It arrives three years after MW3, and you can see exactly where all that time went. It seems the studio finally made listening to player feedback a priority.
Epic Games has just announced the 2026 Epic AI MegaJam, which is looking to see how much game development can be squeezed into a very short window. This is running from November 12 through November 15.
Participants can work alone or in teams of up to five people, build in Unreal Engine or Unreal Editor for Fortnite, and bring along “as many AI agents as you want.” Epic explicitly encourages coding agents, AI-generated assets, audio tools, writing tools, and other AI systems. The official event page literally says "Vibe your way to $50k.”
It’s turning into a pretty good time to be a Monster Hunter fan who plays on a phone. Capcom has confirmed that Monster Hunter Outlanders will launch on Android and iOS on October 29, giving the series a new mobile-first game just as Monster Hunter Rise is also preparing to make the jump to smartphones through Netflix.
Outlanders is being developed by Tencent subsidiary TiMi Studio Group under license and supervision from Capcom. Unlike Rise, which appears to be the full console and PC game adapted for mobile, Outlanders is a free-to-play survival hunting game made specifically for phones.
