  Act fast if you want a brand new free game, as Nubs! Arena from ex-Awesomenauts developers has released and it's free for the first 24 hours. This is not a free trial, it's free to keep if you add it to your account within the time limit.

• GamingOnLinux ☛ Denuvo will lock you out of games on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck if you keep changing Proton versions
