Just Cause 3 stream and giveaway!
Come one, come all, the Square Enix Twitch channel is back for 2016! Join us today (Thursday, 14 January) at 6pm GMT / 10am PST time as we jump into Just Cause 3 on PC and wreak a little havoc with Rico Rodriguez.
Our Square Enix Twitch streams would, of course, be nothing without our awesome viewers and we'll try to incorporate you into the stream as much as possible - be that through voting on what we do next or telling us how exactly you want us to take on the baddies. To top it all off, we've also got some awesome goodies to give away.
Our giveaway prizes this week include:
- Miniature Ricos
- Just Cause 3 branded lanyards
- Just Cause 3 comics
- Just Cause 3 posters
- Exclusive Just Cause 3 T-Shirt
- Just Cause 3 Steam code
- Just Cause 3 Season Pass Steam code
- Just Cause 3 Game and Season Pass Bundle Steam code
- Just Cause 3 Physical Collector's Edition (PC)
All you need to do to enter is type !giveaway into the Twitch chat when we start individual giveaway periods. Please note that at the moment we're only able to run the contest in the US, Canada (excluding Quebec) and the UK. We're hoping to add more countries to future giveaways, but for now we are only able to award you a prize if you're a resident of one of these countries. That being said, even if you're currently ineligible to win a giveaway, do drop by the stream and say hi - we'd love to see you there!
See you later today (Thursday) at 6pm GMT / 10am Pacific on the Square Enix Twitch channel!
