Bundlefest begins over at Fanatical with deals starting from under £1

No camping or wellies required.

Digital retailer Fanatical has just launched BundleFest - a five-day sale of various video game bundles featuring everything from tabletop adaptations to PC classics that start from the ridiculously low price of 69p.

The headline act at the moment is the Colossus Bundle, which includes an impressively varied selection of PC titles such as Chaos Reborn, Vermintide and Mafia 3. It's important to know, though, that most bundles are divided into a number of tiers, so access to certain games comes at an extra - albeit still small - cost.

For example, Tier One of the Colossus Bundle contains Chaos Reborn, Stalker: Clear Sky and the Sniper Ghost Warrior Trilogy for 89p. To gain access to the Tier 2 games - that includes Vermintide, The Last Leviathan and Town of Light - you'll have to pay £4.59. Finally, Mafia 3 and Civilization: Beyond Earth reside in Tier 3 for £8.35.

Cheaper than a festival pint, too!

If that one doesn't grab you a whole host of other bundles are also available to choose from. You can get the Tabletop Bundle, which features PC adaptations of Small World, Mysterium and Ticket to Ride, from 69p.

Elsewhere, the Ancestor Bundle includes a number of classic sci-fi PC titles such as System Shock Enhanced Edition, System Shock 2 and I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream for £1.49.

Be sure to have a browse of the full BundleFest sale to see if there's anything that stands out. And keep an eye on the page over the next few days as further discounted game bundles are launched.
