Square Enix has a huge Eidos Anthology sale on Steam for charity

The bundle features 54 PC games and a whole lotta micro-DLC

Square Enix has – including entries from the Tomb Raider, Thief, Legacy of Kain, and Deus Ex se𒆙ries – in a bid to keep people safel💞y occupied at home.

I was initially a little hesitant to cover this deal – if we were ever really going to play these games, we probably would’ve picked them up by now – but the Eidos Anthology bundle’s charitable appeal makes it worth sharing. According to Square Enix, “all revenue from purchases going to charities across North America and Europe including food banks and more.” Your backlog can handle the burden. (Right?)

The anthology costs around $40, b💮ut any duplicates you already own will knock the price down.

Just from a “Wait, they own those rights?” angle, this list is pretty interesting.

There are true classics, middle-of-the-road releases, and some clear clunkers on the decade-spanning list, so everyone’s results are going to vary. That said, I like the idea of scrolling through my Steam library years from now and racking my brain to figure out how Daikatana managed to sneak in.

If you’re interested, the collection will be discounted until 10:00 a.m. Pacific on May 11, 2020.
