I've been watching the Steam Charts numbers and noticed that there hasn't been the usual free weekend bump. Looking at the Steam store while not logged in, I found that the game, despite major recent announcements and being on-sale, doesn't show up where I would expect it. Scrolling through the on-sale Shooters list, I scrolled probably 200 games past Post Scriptum and still didn't find a HLL listing.

Can anyone confirm whether the same is true for you? Is Team 17 / BM aware that the game seems to be buried right now?

I can confirm lowered visibility during the summer sale. However this free-weekend event is during the steam sale, so it is like participating at a large yearly festival. HLL has set up a nearby stand, while discounted games like Witcher 3 or Nier have spots inside the main tents.

Yeah in a nutshell this free weekend actually came together pretty last minute, unlike our 'grander ones' that tend to drop around our big updates.

We figured we'd do one as this was our last discount before leaving Early Access and wanted to give those who'd Wishlisted us etc a chance to play before deciding if they wanted to pick up Hell Let Loose.

Hope that clears things up. The Steam sale is indeed quite the beast haha!
