Free Rental: God of War, Far Cry 5, More In The US

And they say physical media is dead.

3 Comments

Here's a great deal for anyone who wants to try out a game for free. Between now and May 21, Redbox is offering a free one-day rental of any PS4 or Xbox One game you can find in stock. All you have to do is select the game you want right here and choose where you want to pick it up. Thanks to an automatic coupon, the one-day rental becomes free in your cart.

You have to pick up the game by 9 PM (local time) the day you reserve it. And if you don't return it by 9 PM the following evening, you'll be charged $3 for an extra day--and $3 for every day after that. Even so, this is a great deal if you want to play a game for a day, or try a game you think you might want to buy.

Now Playing: The 5-Year Struggle To Reinvent God Of War

The games on offer are an impressive bunch, even if the selection is fairly small. On PS4, you can get recent releases like God of War, Shadow of the Colossus, MLB The Show 18, and Marvel Vs. Capcom Infinite. Some older but still relevant games include Grand Theft Auto V and Overwatch.

On Xbox One, you can rent newer games like Far Cry 5, Sea of Thieves, and Metal Gear Survive, alongside older games like Fallout 4 and Minecraft. Unfortunately, no Nintendo Switch games are available to rent through Redbox at the moment.

So hop over to the Redbox website and reserve the game of your choice now. Just make sure to do it soon, because the deal ends Monday.

Some links to supporting retailers are automatically made into affiliate links, and GameSpot may receive a small share of those sales.
