In a touching tribute to the late, great Tim Curry, Double Fine Productions is offering Brutal Legend on PC for free for a limited time – 666 minutes, to be exact. This generous offer allows players to experience the unique blend of heavy metal mayhem and strategic gameplay that made Brutal Legend a cult classic.
A Heavy Metal Homage
Curry, who passed away today at the age of 80, lent his iconic voice to Doviculus in Double Fine founder Tim Schafer’s critically acclaimed 2009 title. This offer comes as Double Fine, after regaining the rights to its entire catalog following a period under Microsoft during their “Xbox reset,” uses this opportunity to honor Curry’s contributions.
IGN’s Daemon Hatfield was captivated by Brutal Legend, awarding it a well-deserved 9 out of 10 in his review. “Brutal Legend is a tour de force that wraps up humor, music, and clever gameplay into one highly polished package,” he wrote. “You haven’t played a game quite like this before and won’t want to miss it.”

Beyond Doviculus
While perhaps best known for his unforgettable performance in The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Curry’s prolific career spanned numerous video game roles, including appearances in Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, Gabriel Knight: Sins of the Fathers, and Dragon Age: Origins. His voice work brought depth and personality to countless characters.
Looking Ahead for Double Fine
With its newfound independence, Double Fine has announced plans to revive its beloved Amnesia Fortnight game jam, signaling a renewed focus on creativity and innovation as it embarks on developing its next projects. This is an exciting time for the studio and its fans.
