Double Fine has made Brütal Legend free on Itch.io as a tribute to actor Tim Curry, who has died aged 80. The offer links the game’s heavy-metal setting and celebrity voice cast with Curry’s career, while giving players a limited opportunity to claim the title at no cost.

Brütal Legend is a 2009 action-adventure with real-time strategy elements, starring Jack Black and featuring several rock and screen performers. Curry’s wider games work included a prominent role in Red Alert 3; the article presents the giveaway as a memorial gesture rather than a permanent price change.
