IGN can exclusively reveal that Dark Sector, the 2008 third-person shooter from Warframe developer Digital Extremes, is now free on Steam for the next 72 hours in celebration of the upcoming free Warframe: 1999 expansion that is set to be released in December 2024.

Digital Extremes is giving you the chance to snag their game, Dark Sector, totally free until the end of the month on Steam

It may be over a decade old, but it's worth adding third-person action/shooter game Dark Sector to your Steam account for free while you can.

If you're in need of more games and perhaps you can't afford something from the GOG Sale and Steam Sale - you're in luck! Here's two free games you can get right now.

Obviously Warframe is the flagship title in the Digital Extremes library. The looter-shooter 's mass success and continued appeal is impossible to deny. As Warframe: 1999 inches closer, the game just continues to try new things (some that don't always work out) and is still on my personal list of F2P games just done right.

Dark Sector, the third-person shooter that Digital Extremes launched for Windows PCs in 2009, is available to claim for free on Steam until November 30 at 9:00 a.m., according to a new promo that can currently be found on the game's Steam page.

Dark Sector laid the groundwork for what would eventually become one of today's biggest and most enduring multiplayer shooters.
