Utilising the game's motion controls to hit a variety of incoming notes, you'll move and shake your way through 21 synthwave tracks in a neon environment inspired by the '80s. Integrated fitness tracking helps players to get fit whilst they have fun, with leaderboards and an active modding community also serving to keep bringing you back for more than just a workout.

We recently spoke to Synth Riders' Abraham Aguero about the game's past, present, and future - check it out for some interesting insights.

Enter via Gleam below for a chance to start your fitness journey, and, just as importantly, have a bunch of fun at the same time, by winning Synth Riders on Steam. If you have to have it right now, you can grab the game from Steam, the Oculus Store, and Viveport.

Good luck!

10/6/2019

‪Congratulations to Kuba Smith (@tynhgc) on being drawn as our 11-11: Memories Retold giveaway winner.

@SlamShotSam

A Steam key for 11-11: Memories Retold, the emotional WW1-set adventure game from Aardman Digital and DigixArt, could be yours in this week’s giveaway.

Featuring a beautifully unique art style which makes the game appear as though a living watercolour painting, 11-11 tells the stories of German zeppelin engineer Kurt (Sebastian Koch) and Canadian photographer Harry (Elijah Wood), offering two opposing perspectives of the first global conflict which eventually come to converge. PTC Editor James Parry said that Memories Retold is “quite unironically, a very memorable experience” and “exceptional” in its execution in our review.

If you want to experience this prideful look back at a harrowing period in history, be sure to enter via Gleam below for a chance to win. You can also purchase the game for £19.99 on Steam, Xbox One or PS4.

Good luck!

ENDED: Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Season Pass giveaway

3/6/2019

Congratulations to Greg Hayner (@gamesguru24), our Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Season Pass giveaway winner!

@SlamShotSam

All premium post-launch content for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, plus the full Assassin’s Creed III Remastered and Assassin's Creed Liberation Remastered games, are up for grabs on Xbox One!

If you already own Odyssey, with the Season Pass you’ll gain access to two major additional story arcs. Legacy of the First Blade is available in full and allows players to meet the very first user of the series’ iconic Hidden Blade, discovering more about the origin of the Assassins in the process. The Fate of Atlantis is an ongoing adventure, releasing episodically at no additional cost to Season Pass holders, where you’ll seek to uncover the many secrets of the eponymous underwater city of legend.

Not only does the Season Pass include expansions aplenty for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, but also the complete ACIII Remastered and AC Liberation Remastered games. Stepping away from Odyssey's rendition of Greece for the United States - specifically Boston and New Orleans, respectively - these visually enhanced versions of two previous franchise entries also come bundled with their original DLC.

If you need lots more Assassin’s Creed in your life, you’ll want to enter via the Gleam widget below to be in with a chance of winning.

Good luck!

An Xbox One copy of Tate Multimedia’s Steel Rats is our prize this week.

The 2.5D action game launched late last year on PlayStation 4 and PC, but has only just made its way to Xbox One, where players can now finally turn a circular saw-wheeled motorbike to combat!

If you have an adrenaline addiction that needs to be fed, be sure to enter via Gleam below for a chance to win. If you aren’t drawn as the lucky winner, you can download Steel Rats for £12.49 on Xbox, £15.99 on Steam, or the sale price of £6.49 on PS4.

With Team Sonic Racing approaching its final turn before the finish line, get caught up on the series so far with SEGA All-Stars Racing and the Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed Collection on Steam.

While Tuesday’s release of Team Sonic Racing will see players work together as members of the Sonic the Hedgehog roster, the pair of predecessors we’re giving away feature not only the best of Sonic, but also SEGA’s iconic catalogue at large (with some DLC extras to sweeten the pot).

It’s every kart for themselves as characters from SEGA classics like Shenmue, Crazy Taxi and Space Channel 5 trade power-ups and paint in an effort to top the podium. Since the Steam version of Transformed is up for grabs, you’ll also get to play as the cast of Valve’s Team Fortress 2 in that particular game!

Be sure to enter via Gleam below for a chance to get your race on with Sonic and pals. If you aren’t drawn as the winner, you and grab SEGA All-Stars Racing for just £4.99 on Steam and the Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed Collection for £14.99 on Steam.

You could win an Xbox One key for A Plague Tale: Innocence, the brand new action-adventure game in which two young orphans must navigate a plague-ravaged medieval France!

I previewed the game, published by Focus Home Interactive and developed by Asobo Studio, back in March and found the opening chapters to paint a very promising picture. If you’d like to know whether the full game lives up to its promise, check back in with Pass the Controller for my full review on Tuesday (launch day).

Failing that, you can endeavour to find out for yourself by entering via Gleam below and standing a chance to bag a free copy. Entries are valid until 23:59 on Friday 17 May.

If you miss your chance, or don’t find yourself the lucky winner come competition close, you can grab A Plague Tale: Innocence for £44.99 on Xbox One and PS4, or £39.99 on PC via Steam.

ENDED: Serial Cleaner giveaway

6/5/2019

Lance Mesina (@Stagunantu) cleaned up the competition in this week’s giveaway!

by Sam Sant

@SlamShotSam

Break out the boilersuits for some heavy-duty cleanup detail, as this week's prize will have you up to your ankles in viscera as a prolific serial killer's personal crime scene cleaner.

Tidying up is a chore we all have to endure, except when playing Serial Cleaner from iFun4all (now known as Draw Distance). True to their (old) name, the Polish developer (which graciously answered a few of our questions a while back) have managed to make cleaning, well, fun for all! In our impressive 10/10 review, Staff Writer Rob concluded that the game's simple premise is carried with an admirable amount of character and panache, placing the cherry atop a game for which he had nothing but praise.

If you're eager to wield a hoover for the first time in your life, you'll want to enter via Gleam below to be in with a chance of winning a Steam key. You can also purchase the game for £11.99 on Steam, Xbox One and PS4, or £14.99 on Switch.

Good luck!

ENDED: EVERYTHING giveaway

29/4/2019

The winner of our EVERYTHING giveaway is Jett Cameron (@Azatoth12)!

by Sam Sant

@SlamShotSam

While we can't literally give away the intangible quantity of everything, we do have the next best thing up for grabs, which is a Steam key for David OReilly and Double Fine's EVERYTHING!

Fittingly, you can take control of any and everything in EVERYTHING. To illustrate how that unfolds, allow me to quote myself:

"A multitude of worlds are nested within EVERYTHING; in the space of a few minutes I’d explored pollen spores on a molecular level, become the bee that carried the pollen and ascended from amongst the flowers, taken control of a chimpanzee and rolled down a hill, switched to a grazing horse, transferred my conscious into a grand old oak, become the continent, become the planet, the sun, the galaxy, another galaxy, a new planet, another continent, then descended to explore a foreign ecosystem."

As you can see, the game's scale is incredible. For more on what's also a poignant and meditative experience, check out my full piece on everything you need to know about EVERYTHING.

If you're open to taking a deep look within, while also appreciating a game of unparalleled scale, enter via Gleam below for your chance to win EVERYTHING on Steam. Otherwise, you can grab a copy for £10.99 on Steam, £11.69 on Switch, or £11.99 on PS4.

Good luck!

ENDED: Injustice: Gods Among Us Ultimate Edition giveaway

22/4/2019

‪It’s no injustice that Conor O'Leary (@Conor48900084) has been drawn as our winner!

by Sam Sant

@SlamShotSam

With Mortal Kombat 11 out this week and Shazam! dominating the box office, what better time to polish up on your DC Comics and NetherRealm knowledge than now?

From the creators of Mortal Kombat, Injustice is somewhat of a sibling series featuring your favourite DC superheroes, including six additional fighters bundled into the Ultimate Edition (alongside 30+ new skins and 60 new training missions).

A fighting game that's easy to learn and hard to master - like the best of 'em - I've said before and I'll say again that "whether you’re a DC fan and a genre novice, or a fighting game aficionado with no attachment to the roster, Injustice caters to your niche."

If you're excited about pitting iconic superheroes and villains in head-to-head combat, be it against friend or foe, then you'll want to enter via Gleam below for your chance to win. You can also grab the Ultimate Edition for £14.99 on Steam or £49.99 on PS4.

Good luck!
