The Nomad Soul given away free as David Bowie tribute

But what you might not have heard is that once upon a time, he was also in a game called Omikron: The Nomad Soul, his first and only video game appearance.

In remembrance of David Bowie who sadly passed away this week at the age of 69, Square Enix is giving away the one and only game which Bowie played a pretty big part in: Omikron – The Nomad Soul. He also appears in the game as a nameless singer who performs illegal concerts in Omikron. All’s you gotta do is add the game to your cart and enter the coupon code omikron. Even if the machine you’re using is a decade old, you likely still have all you need to play Omikron.

Can’t get enough David Bowie in your life, but feel as though you’ve exhausted all of his rarities, B-sides, and live recordings?

The Nomad Soul was the produced by Cage’s studio Quantic Dream, before the well-known Farenheit: The Indigo Prophecy, and long before the more recent Heavy Rain and Beyond Two Souls.

You can grab your free Steam code by purchasing the game through Square Enix store. I think I may revisit it myself this weekend.

There’s no catch, but the offer only runs until January 22 and the game is only available for Windows machines.
