A brand-new indie game called Beneath Europa has started a limited-time promotion that allows PC gamers to claim and keep it at no cost. Gameplay-wise, Beneath Europa has serious Iron Lung vibes, and PC users looking for a similar horror experience that is all about claustrophobia and fear of underwater creatures will likely enjoy it.
Between Steam's free-to-keep promotions and the Epic Games Store's weekly freebies, PC users receive objectively more free games each month than console gamers. But those official giveaways aren't the only ways they can get a 100% discount. There are many more developer-initiated offers here and there that can turn out to be lucrative deals, and the current promotion for Beneath Europa is one good example.
Until September 4 at 10:58 AM, PC users can claim Beneath Europa completely free of charge. The game's base price seems to be about $3 USD, though players who grab it right now won't have to pay a dime. Developer Exiled describes Beneath Europa as "a short atmospheric exploration/adventure game where you pilot a submarine." And those who have played indie horror games like Iron Lung will likely find the controls and mechanics quite familiar.
In Beneath Europa, players take on the role of a researcher looking for signs of alien life under the ocean. They are in charge of navigating a submarine using a sonar system while following strange signals and avoiding radioactive areas. A display shows them what's outside the submarine, which also serves as the primary source of the game's spookiness because players can never guess what's lurking outside.

Those looking for more under-the-radar freebie promotions should check out NoRush! – Tower Edition, which is currently free to keep on the Epic Games Store. That offer is not part of the storefront's official weekly giveaways, which is why it has flown under many players' radar. Unlike Beneath Europa's eerie and phobia-riddled atmosphere, NoRush is a fairly relaxing and cute 3D platformer.
Valve's Steam storefront is currently giving away a Microsoft Flight Simulator DLC, though it adds nothing to the game and is actually a bundle of the franchise's iconic scores. Those looking for actual free-to-keep games on Steam will likely need to wait and see if the platform has any giveaways planned for September. Based on current information, it's speculated that Steam will make three DLC bundles free in October, but nothing has been revealed regarding its September promotions at the time of writing.
