AMD Announces "Raise the Game" Bundle: 3 Games, All Unreleased

AMD announced the "Raise the Game" bundle. The company is giving away three AAA games with its Radeon RX Vega 64, RX Vega 56, RX 580, and RX 570 graphics cards (you get all three games when you purchase any of those graphics cards). Assassin's Creed Odyssey is the star attraction here. The latest addition to the Assassin's Creed franchise adds a straight $59.99 value to your graphics card purchase. You also get "Strange Brigade," a $39.99 upcoming co-op adventure shooter set in a Tomb Raider-esque setting. Lastly, there's Star Control: Origins, the upcoming space RTS by Stardock.

This is probably the first time that a GPU vendor is bundling only upcoming games, which at launch-prices add tremendous value to your graphics card, especially some of the cheaper RX 570 ones. Assassin's Creed Origins releases this October, while Strange Brigade lands late-August, and Star Control: Origins this September. The bundle is limited to participating retailers, and applicable to graphics cards sold between August 7, 2018 and ends November 3, 2018 (or until stocks last). You get a master coupon that must be redeemed on AMD website before 31st December, which puts out the UPlay and Steam keys for the games.

I don't recall anything like that.. but my memory may be fuzzy. I could've sworn I activated my game right after I got the email from a newegg order... before the GPU even shipped to my house.

Yes you do. I have a 1080ti myself and ordered a rx 580 from newegg with the masterpass deal for 237 out the door with these games. I got the code to activate but amd website said no RX card detected in the system. So you do need a card in the system to activate and get the keys. But not to play, after you download all good so may be just get the keys from the backup rig and activate and download or redownlaod on the 1080ti rig. I don't game much so I might be offloading my 1080ti soon and throw the rx 580 in my personal rig for now.
Thanks for this. That is what I remember from nVidia requiring GeForce Experience to activate the game. Frankly I would be surprised if AMD is any different. Guess I learn I need to triple check what others say on the forums now. Anyway, no AMD cards for me then.

Wanted to pick up an rx 570 at best buy since i have some best buy reward funds. But they are clueless. It seems like they are the only retailer that does not know about this offer but amd has them as participating retailer. All the other links work to retailers on AMDs site but best buy link is broke. Customer service didn't bother trying, told me to contact AMD lol!

I wonder if its just missing from their site and you will automatically get the code or they are just not doing it. If they are I bet they are definitely losing sales because of this offer.
