Crayta is currently free to ‘buy’ on Stadia

This week, Google Stadia is preparing for its first anniversary. As part of that celebration, they’ve put a bunch of indie games on sale, including marking down Crayta, the Stadia exclusive tool to play and make games, at a “100% off” discount — aka free.

First launched earlier this year, Crayta is a massively ambitious title that goes beyond being a simple “game.” In reality, it’s an engine for building games, a platform for sharing your creations with the world, and a discovery portal for players to play something new.

Crayta: Premium Edition has long been available for Stadia Pro members to claim for free, offering access to 2020’s “seasonal content.” Starting today and running through November 24, Crayta is available for free to Stadia Pro and non-Pro members alike. Non-Pro players can get a free copy of Crayta: Premium Edition, while Stadia Pro members can upgrade to the Deluxe Edition for free, which should net you a few packs of cosmetics and 1,000 “Crayta Credits.”

Typically, when a game becomes temporarily free like this on Google Stadia, it’s only free to “claim” by Stadia Pro members, and claimed games are only available so long as you have a Stadia Pro subscription. Instead, Crayta: Premium Edition and Crayta: Deluxe Edition are available to “purchase” with a 100% off discount, meaning it’s yours forever.

Other games discounted in the indie sale include fantastic titles like Celeste for $12 and Hello Neighbor for $15, as well as some of Stadia’s exclusives like Lost Words: Beyond the Page for $10 and Gunsport for $5.
