SteamWorld Dig is currently free on Origin

With SteamWorld Dig 2 getting released later this month, now is the perfect time to play the first game if you haven't already. This platform mining adventure that's packed with Metroidvania elements grabbed the attention of millions of gamers worldwide, and rightly so. At first, you might get the impression it's a bit on the repetitive side, but don't be fooled! It's got more than enough to keep you hooked for hours.

What's even better, you can now get SteamWorld Dig for free! The catch? Well, the offer is part of Origin's On The House program, and we can already hear the angry growls of many a gamer. Still, we believe you owe this game to yourself, so go ahead and grab a free copy, no matter the gaming platform. In fact, we encourage you to check Origin and their On The House promotions regularly, as they often give away games that are anything but bad. There, we said it.
