Well, this week’s Deals with Gold have bought the farm. I’m sorry to say the downward trend over the last couple of weeks is continued here and there’s practically nothing worth mentioning.
If you haven’t bought Styx: Master of Shadows in any previous sales, it’s been discounted by 75%, so it’s well worth grabbing. There’s also Farming Simulator 17 – Platinum Edition. If by any chance you happen to have interest in farming sims, this is by far one of the best out there and it’s on sale for $37.49 USD.
Ultimately however, the RGM recommendation of the week goes to ELEX. It’s an RPG from THQ Nordic that blends science fiction with fantasy in strange and fascinating ways. It is also Xbox One X enhanced. If you’d like to learn more about, you can read my E3 2017 impressions here.
Elex is a vast Open-World RPG full of freedom and choices from the award-winning creators of the Gothic series, set in a brand new post-apocalyptic Science Fantasy universe.
Features:
Freedom of choice: Help, betray, or even kill whoever you want, and see how the ripple effects will change the course of the story. Freedom of movement: Use the jet pack to attack from mid-air, to reach hidden places, or to jump from incredible heights and still land safely.
Freedom of character development: In Elex you’re not limited to a certain class of hero – you can become whatever you like.
Freedom of exploration: The whole world is open for exploration from the very first moment on, and there are no barriers or loading screens.
Freedom of weapon choice: Elex offers one of the widest selection of weaponry in the history of RPGs. From swords, bows, and hammers to shotguns, grenade launchers, and even flame throwers – there’s a weapon style for everyone – and of course there’s magic.
Here’s all of the Deals with Gold and Spotlight Sales. They are valid now through January 15th, 2018.
