Autumn sale season has arrived for PC players, and GOG has opened its Autumn 2026 Sale with discounts across thousands of DRM-free games. The promotion began on September 25 and is scheduled to run through October 7, offering a wide range of new releases, modern favorites, cult classics, and older PC staples at sharply reduced prices.

There are bigger purchases available for players looking to fill out a library, including The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt Complete Edition for $25. That edition is particularly timely for anyone wanting to revisit or finally start CD Projekt Red's enormous RPG before its free remastered update arrives next week. But the most compelling part of the sale may be the large collection of games available for $15 or less.

For a relatively small spend, PC players can pick up acclaimed action adventures, shooters, tactical games, role-playing games, racing through post-apocalyptic wastelands, and some essential older titles that remain worth playing. Here are 30 especially notable deals from GOG's Autumn Sale, along with a closer look at the kinds of experiences they offer.

Standout modern games under $15

Control: Ultimate Edition is one of the biggest bargains in the promotion at $6, down from $40. Remedy Entertainment's surreal third-person action game sends players into the shifting halls of the Federal Bureau of Control, a secretive agency dealing with paranormal events and reality-altering objects. The Ultimate Edition includes the game's expansions, making this a complete entry point for anyone who has not experienced Jesse Faden's story. With the sequel now available on PC and consoles, it is also an inexpensive opportunity to catch up on the series.

RoboCop: Rogue City is another surprising low-price pick at $4, reduced from $40. Built around the classic film character and set in a grimy, crime-ridden Detroit, it mixes first-person shooting with investigations, dialogue choices, and a slower, heavier interpretation of RoboCop's movement. It is an especially appealing choice for fans of the original movies who want a game that embraces the setting's tone rather than merely borrowing its name.

Players in the mood for a more grounded historical RPG can get Kingdom Come: Deliverance for $8, originally priced at $40. Its demanding medieval adventure emphasizes a less fantastical kind of role-playing, with a large open world, first-person combat, survival-adjacent systems, and a story centered on Henry, the son of a blacksmith. Its approach will not suit everyone, but its unusual commitment to period detail gives it a distinct identity.

Jagged Alliance 3, meanwhile, is available for $5 instead of $45. The turn-based tactical strategy game asks players to recruit mercenaries, manage their relationships and equipment, and liberate a fictional nation through carefully planned squad combat. It is a strong option for anyone who enjoys the deliberate pacing and emergent stories of tactical games, particularly when every bad decision can create a new problem for a hard-won campaign.

Everspace 2 costs $10, down from $50, and provides a very different kind of RPG progression. This spacefaring action game is built around piloting a customizable ship, exploring hand-crafted star systems, gathering better gear, and taking on fast-paced dogfights. Those wanting a polished single-player space combat game with loot-driven upgrades should find plenty to enjoy here.

Action games, open worlds, and cinematic campaigns

The Mafia Trilogy is one of the sale's most substantial packages, dropping from $60 to $12. The collection brings together three crime sagas set across different eras, charting stories of organized crime through the streets of Lost Heaven, Empire Bay, and New Bordeaux. The first game's modern remake is a particularly attractive draw, while the bundle as a whole offers a large amount of narrative-driven action for the price.

Warner Bros.' open-world games are well represented too. The Middle-earth Shadow Bundle is $8, down from $80, pairing Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor and Middle-earth: Shadow of War. Both games mix stealth, melee action, and exploration in Tolkien-inspired settings, but their defining feature is the Nemesis system, which allows enemy captains to remember encounters, rise through ranks, and develop personal rivalries with the player.

Mad Max is only $3, reduced from $20. Avalanche Studios' adaptation places an emphasis on vehicular combat and upgrading the Magnum Opus, Max's customizable car, as players cross a sun-scorched wasteland. Its bare-knuckle fights and scavenging loops support an open-world structure that remains a good fit for anyone wanting destructive driving and lonely post-apocalyptic atmosphere.

Also at $3 is Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition, down from $20. Set in an open-world version of Hong Kong, the game follows undercover officer Wei Shen and stands out for its close-quarters combat, which takes inspiration from martial arts cinema. Driving, gunplay, side activities, and a focused crime drama round out a game that has retained a loyal following long after its original release.

For pure chaos, the first two Just Cause games are nearly pocket change. Just Cause is $1, down from $7, while Just Cause 2 is $2, down from $20. The sequel in particular remains a memorable sandbox for using a grappling hook and parachute to traverse enormous spaces, hijack vehicles, and cause spectacular destruction. The games show their age, but their sense of freedom remains notable.

Destroy All Humans! is $3 instead of $30 and offers a more comedic form of mayhem. As the alien Crypto, players invade 1950s America with sci-fi weaponry, telekinetic abilities, and a flying saucer. The remake preserves the premise's campy B-movie energy while updating its presentation for a newer audience.

At $2, down from $55, Maneater Apex Edition is perhaps the sale's strangest value. This shark action RPG lets players grow from a small predator into an increasingly fearsome aquatic threat, attacking wildlife, humans, boats, and rival hunters. It is knowingly silly, but the low price makes it a worthwhile pick for players seeking something unconventional and easy to dip into.

Excellent shooters and tactical favorites

Id Software's modern Doom games are both heavily discounted. Doom from 2016 is $4 instead of $20, while Doom Eternal is $10 rather than $30. The former is an ideal reintroduction to Doom's fast, aggressive arena combat, while the latter expands that formula with additional mobility, resource-management systems, and more demanding encounters. Either is an easy recommendation for players who want a focused, energetic first-person shooter campaign.

Metro Exodus Gold Edition is even cheaper at $4, reduced from $40. The Gold Edition expands the atmospheric shooter with its additional content, while the base game takes the Metro series beyond its familiar tunnels and into a journey across post-apocalyptic Russia. It combines tense firefights, exploration, stealth, and survival elements, making it a strong choice for players who prefer shooters with a slower, moodier pace.

XCOM 2 is $3, down from $20, and remains a defining modern strategy game. Players lead a resistance force against an alien occupation, balancing a global campaign layer with turn-based missions where squad positioning and careful planning matter enormously. Failure can be painful, especially when experienced soldiers are permanently lost, but that pressure is part of what makes victories memorable.

The Crysis Remastered Trilogy reaches the top end of this roundup at $15, reduced from $50. It includes all three games, bringing Crytek's sci-fi shooter series together in updated form. The nanosuit's abilities let players choose among stealth, strength, and armor-oriented tactics, and the package offers three distinct campaigns for those curious about a major shooter franchise of the 2000s and early 2010s.

For an older military campaign, Medal of Honor: Allied Assault War Chest is $5, down from $10. It represents an earlier era of World War II first-person shooters, including the main game and its expansions. Expectations should be set for its age, but it remains an important historical piece for players interested in the genre's evolution.

RPGs, cult classics, and older PC essentials

GOG's DRM-free catalog is particularly well suited to older games, and the sale includes several enduring favorites. Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines is $10, down from $20. Its troubled history and rough edges are well known, but its richly realized vampire society, memorable quests, and player choice have made it a lasting cult RPG. For players willing to meet it on its own terms, it remains one of the most distinctive role-playing games on PC.

Alpha Protocol is $7, reduced from $20. Obsidian Entertainment's espionage RPG casts the player as agent Michael Thorton and is notable for its reactive conversations, branching alliances, and choices that can reshape the flow of missions. Its action mechanics can feel uneven, but its ambition and role-playing flexibility make it a compelling cult favorite.

The first two Witcher games are both deeply discounted: The Witcher is $1.50 rather than $10, and The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings is $3 instead of $20. They are notably different from The Witcher 3, both in structure and age, but they offer the opportunity to see Geralt's game journey from the beginning. The second entry is especially worth considering for its political story and consequential choices.

Grim Fandango Remastered is $3, down from $15, offering a restored version of a beloved adventure game. Its film-noir-influenced tale of Manny Calavera, set in a world inspired by Mexican folklore and the afterlife, remains one of the medium's most stylish stories. Puzzle design from its era can occasionally be obtuse, but its writing, music, and visual identity endure.

Finally, Theme Hospital costs just $1, reduced from $6. The management classic asks players to build and run absurd hospitals treating fictional illnesses, balancing finances, staffing, and patient needs with a wickedly comedic tone. It is an easy low-cost recommendation for simulation fans or anyone curious about one of Bullfrog's best-known games.
