MCV/DEVELOP News, events, research and jobs from the games industry
Sometimes a deal can seem too good to be true. But at the time of writing this offer is very much real.
GameStop is currently selling digital PC versions of not only Far Cry and Far Cry 2: Fortune’s Edition but also the brand spanking new Far Cry 3: Deluxe Edition for 4.94.
Note to UK buyers – paying through PayPal seems to lock away some of the Far Cry 3 content. But paying with a credit or debit card seems to work fine.
Buyers will also have to download a GameStop PC app through which the games can then be downloaded – as is being done by at least one of the MCV team right now.
Far Cry 3 was only released last month and cost 39.99 on PC from GAME on launch day. Don’t expect this deal to be replicated anywhere else!
UPDATE: As of 11:09am this deal is still working for us, despite claims to the contrary from some readers.
UPDATE 2: And it’s gone. The correct price of 54.98 is now charged on checkout. Well done to those who got in there in time.
