You can play through Far Cry 6 for free this weekend

It's the weekend, welcome to it. We have a range of deals that you may be interested in. We packed in a few deals that popped up more recently, but most of these were big hits throughout the week. This week will see the Unpacked event on The Verge. On August 10th, we expect to see new foldable phones and other gadgets, as well as a lot of pre-order deals. Then, see you.

You can play as much Far Cry 6 as you want at the store. The store is giving away a free trial of the game. The PC version of Far Cry 6 is less expensive than the console versions, but it is hard to beat the current price of $0.00. The trial is available on both consoles. You don't have to have a subscription to get a free trial. You will need the modern equivalent of Xbox Live Gold on the other platform.

We like to give context around the deals we promote so that you can make an educated purchase. It's not necessary for a free item. The combat and exploration in Far Cry 6 are the same as in the previous game. Far Cry 6 is one of the fewAAA games set in Latin America, though its narrative and handling of cultural portrayals are hit or miss. It may be a good use of your time this weekend.

Yara is the location of Far Cry 6. It is the newest game in the first-person-shooter franchise.

If you plan to head on vacation this summer, or just want to lounge around the house with some books, the new Kindle Paperwhite may be the perfect accessory. The model is on sale at Best Buy. The lowest price that we have seen for the paperwhite is this one.

The reason why this is the e-reader to buy over the previous generation is because it has a bigger 6.8-inch backlit display. It's similar to the last-gen Paperwhite in terms of waterproofness. We recommend you to read our review.

There is a 6.8-inch E Ink display with a temperature that can be adjusted for nighttime reading. It has a faster processor, additional battery life, IPX8 waterproof, and ausb-c port, among other things.

The Beats Fit Pro are the best running earbuds I’ve ever had

The studio buds are $100 off at Amazon and offer ANC and a transparency mode. You can get up to eight hours of listening time per charge if you don't have ANC on. Chris stated in his review that the ANC is worse in the studio buds than in the fit pro. It is important to note that neither the Fit Pro nor the Studio Buds support wireless charging. We recommend you to read our review.

Wing tips on the earbuds help keep them secure during workouts. Their sound has the right amount of bass and kick to keep you motivated.
