Though its unclear when the promotion ends, anyone who grabs Crusader Kings 2 will get to keep the game forever. If massive strategy games are your thing, Paradox is offering 50% off on all of Crusader Kings 2's expansions, with the savings increasing should you decide to purchase one of the three DLC bundles. The Crusader Kings sequel has received strong reviews since its 2012 release.

"Five years ago I said Crusader Kings II was a very good video game. So good, in fact, that it was a contender for 2012's Game of the Year. It didn't win, but unlike most of its competition that year, it hasn't faded from public consciousness or been replaced by a prettier sequel," wrote Kotaku's Luke Plunkett. "Instead, it's quietly but consistently expanded and improved itself, gestating with a kind of confidence in its core systems and hardcore appeal that in this fleeting and skittish industry is downright admirable."
