One of the hundreds of Warhammer games is currently free to keep forever on Steam
Warhammer 40,000 Gladius - Relics of War, the series’ only turn-based 4X strategy game, is currently available to claim permanently free on Steam during the annual Warhammer Skulls event. The promotion was announced alongside numerous other reveals from the Games Workshop franchise, though it has received less fanfare than competing announcements.
The Warhammer Skulls event, which took place earlier this month, featured a packed lineup of new releases and updates. Notable announcements included Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster, a 2D brawler featuring a skaven protagonist; a sequel to the tactical XCOM-like game Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters; additional content for the co-op shooter Darktide; and a demo for Boltgun 2, which has garnered positive reception from players.
Gladius - Relics of War stands out as a unique entry in the expansive Warhammer video game catalog, which spans multiple genres and platforms. The permanently free offer provides an unusual opportunity for players to acquire a critically acclaimed strategy title at no cost, making it a significant value proposition within the broader context of the Games Workshop franchise’s digital ecosystem.
