SALES/PLAYER COUNTS & DEALS

One of the hundreds of Warhammer games is currently free to keep forever on Steam
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/strategy/one-of-the-hundreds-of-warhammer-games-is-currently-free-to-keep-forever-on-steam/
The annual Warhammer Skulls event happened earlier today and it spawned a lot of announcements. Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Deathmaster is a 2D brawler starring a wretched skaven, XCOM-like Chaos Gate – Daemonhunters is getting a sequel, and—the announcement in most want of further context—Darktide is getting a cog boy.
And that's not even all. A demo for Boltgun 2 dropped and apparently it's sick (in a good way). You'd be forgiven for feeling a bit flummoxed by all the Warhammer happenings, which is why one of the most important announcements has gone somewhat unremarked upon.
Warhammer 40,000 Gladius - Relics of War is currently free-to-keep if you redeem it on Steam quick smart. I don't know how long the offer lasts, but Epic Games Store, for example, isn't giving it away willy-nilly so I don't think it's a permanent thing. Normally "free game" is a big deal.
>> Several things: you’ll read more about those announcements ,in the second post. Gladius will be free to get until the 28th of May and it has been given away several times in the part so, you may already have it. And it’s not the only free game at Steam...

Bad news for Krafton: Subnautica 2 broke 4 million copies sold in less than a week
https://www.pcgamer.com/games/survival-crafting/bad-news-for-krafton-subnautica-2-broke-4-million-copies-sold-in-less-than-a-week/
Like a toothy, grinning leviathan prowling the depths, waiting for unsuspecting explorers to come toodling along in hopelessly delicate, defenseless mini-subs Subnautica 2 continues its reign of terror: Unknown Worlds announced today that the game has now surpassed 4 million sales in less that one week.
The latest sales milestone comes after Subnautica 2 pushed out one million copies in its first hour of release, and then doubled that to two million in its first 12 hours. And despite some professed trepidation from Unknown Worlds parent Krafton, the game's early access state has not diminished enthusiasm for it: Subnautica 2 currently holds a "very positive" rating across more than 74,000 user reviews on Steam.

This Mod Adds 154 New Lore-Friendly Vehicles to GTA 4
https://www.dsogaming.com/mods/this-mod-adds-154-new-lore-friendly-vehicles-to-gta-4/
Modder ‘DrShagz’ has released a cool new mod for Grand Theft Auto 4 that adds 154 new lore-friendly vehicles to it. And, since this is new free content for the game, I highly recommend downloading it and giving it a go.
According to the modder, these new vehicles will spawn naturally in traffic (apart from some unique vehicles). All vehicles now display manufacturer and model, and all cars have custom audio, including police scanner audio.
It’s also worth noting that DrShagz has added optional handling for all sports cars and motorbikes. He also tweaked and changed the handling for almost all new cars to better fit into the base GTA IV world. This means that this pack may not be compatible with this mod, which adds a fully functional vehicle fuel system.
You can go ahead and download the mod from this link. At the end of the article, you can also find a 20-minute gameplay video for it.
