Now

something for yourself. Our annual Winter Sale begins with hundreds of deals and
even some gifts of our own, including a free copy of Neverwinter Nights Diamond

Neverwinter Nights Diamond Edition – 48h Giveaway
While Neverwinter Nights garnered a cult following on release, it's the Premium
Modules – expansions often compared to Baldur's Gate & Planescape: Torment –
that elevated the game to legendary status.
Now you have 48 hours to claim this celebrated Dungeons & Dragons classic in its
definitive edition, complete with all official expansions and digital goodies,
the official soundtrack, map, manuals, and more.
Collect XP to Unlock More Free Games
Once again, you will earn XP for every dollar spent, for checking-in daily, and
for collecting badges all throughout the sale. You can learn more about it and
track your progress here.
If you've participated in our Monstrous Fall Sale, we may have some bonus XP for
you, to be used towards our new free unlockables. And boy are they sweet!
