Our first free weekend on Steam has begun! Deadside is available to play for free from March 27th through the 31st! This is a perfect chance for new players to immerse into the atmosphere of Deadside for absolutely free, and for veterans of the game to give newcomers a warm welcome and show what they got.

We are opening new servers to accommodate everyone who wants to participate in the event. Such servers will be marked in the browser as “Wipe in a month” and will be closed after the end of the event.

So let the servers burn!
