December 19, 2020 Ubisoft has made all of its holiday freebies available in one last bundle for 24 hours only.
Starlink: Battle for Atlas was a late-comer in the toys-to-life genre which had the incredible misfortune of launching after the market for games like Skylanders and Disney Infinity had already dried up. Ubisoft did what it could to mitigate that, including the release of a digital-only version that didn't require any toys to play. Now, that digital version is free on PC.
You can grab Hyper Scape.
This is the standard digital edition of Starlink, which includes the vast majority of ships, pilots, and weapons released among the first wave of toys – which means you're getting a pile of content for free without even having to swap around little plastic pieces. Anno 1701 is a 2006 entry in the racing games, which is to say very. Not bad at all for the price of, er, nothing.
All this preamble probably speaks to why Starlink failed to make much of a splash at launch, but it's a solid arcade-y space shooter that deepens the concept with a good bit of Ubisoft's usual blend of RPG games, all with an adventuresome Saturday morning cartoon vibe. It's worth a look.
