Intel is on a roll and they’ve got ANOTHER awesome Intel master Key bonus bundle offer for those gearing up with selected Intel Core i5, i7 or i9 CPU, or gaming PC/laptops featuring this hardware inside!

Before we jump into this latest offer, it’s important to note that Intel Master Key codes do not stack, so you’ll only be able to register and redeem one per eligible purchase – best advice is to check out the Intel Master Key Ubisoft Pick 3 bundle and Intel Master Key Total War TROY bundle which are available at the moment too, choosing the best game offer for you 🙂 This new offer does include the whole of the Intel 11th desktop CPU lineup too, great news for those getting themselves the popular i5-11400, which wasn’t included in other recent promotions until now!

It’s also important to note that these are two rather ruthlessly violent games, and R18 age restrictions will apply.

This new Intel Master Key unlocks two exciting new games, Chivalry 2 and Hitman 3. The eligible date range for purchases is from April 16th through to August 31st 2021 and only from authorised Intel partners (PB Tech in New Zealand) so you can claim your Master Key Code, quick links below for our favourites Intel CPU options.

– Intel Core i5
– Intel Core i7
– Intel Core i9

Looking at the games up for grabs it’s going to get bloody, with medieval carnage and modern assassinations to enjoy.

Chivalry 2 is currently in the latter stages of BETA testing and the gameplay is very polished already, it looks ready to release. Best described as a first-person-stabber with a combination of action-packed and strategic gameplay, this game has a strong following from those who played the original.

It’s very violent, as battles are, and those going sword to sword in close combat will be treated to an array of decapitations and dismemberments, whereas those playing as an archer may enjoy a little more comfort unleashing death from the castle walls, well, at least until those walls break 😛 And they will, the massive multi-stage battles take players all the way from the surrounding countryside into the castle courts.

Hitman 3 is a stealth game, with this latest release being touted as the dramatic conclusion to the new World of Assassination trilogy. This epic adventure takes the player into a range of exciting locations to kill people, and lets us be pretty creative or direct in our approach to murder… adding to replayability of this one.

Both such good games! We’ll continue to update with more awesome new offers as they come in, so be sure to keep your eyes on the GGPC Computers Blog for the latest.

PLEASE NOTE: We’ve had reports about the text message verification tool having issues sending messages to NZ numbers. If you get stuck at all during game activation be sure to log Support Claim with the Intel Master Key Team – they will help fix these sort of issues should they arise.

GAME ON!

Hold on tight! We’ve got great news for those gearing up with a new Intel CPU, Gaming PC or Gaming Laptop!

Those fine folks at Ubisoft and Intel have teamed up and this latest Intel Master Key code has some very cool games up for grabs – but you’ll have to pick exactly which ones the key will activate… which will you choose?

Via Intel: “We have teamed up with our partners to let you experience some of our best titles at no extra cost! Choose from three different Ubisoft franchises, including Watch Dogs: Legion, Riders Republic, and Immortals Fenyx Rising with your purchase of an eligible Intel® Core™ processor.”

This promotion is valid on qualifying purchases from March 23rd 2021 – August 31st 2021, or while code supplies last, and only from authorised retailers (PB Tech in New Zealand)

The offer is split between 3 different tiers of unlocks.

Step #1 is Ubisoft Pick 1 of 3 Games

Option A: At first glance Riders Republic may look like dirt biking version of steep, but it’s got snow boarding in it too so the comparison can be more direct 😛 Really though, this game is so much more, 50 players on screen at once type stuff.

As I write this the game hasn’t actually released yet, so depending on when you’re reading this, you could be picking a pre-order.

Boasting a large world to explore, from snowy mountains to arid canyons, the gameplay zone comprised of iconic US national parks: Bryce Canyon, Yosemite Valley, Sequoia Park, Zion, Canyonlands, Mammoth Mountain, Grand Teton… all mashed up into one unique place for you to shred.

We can squad up with friends and take on downhill races, dominate maps in team vs team competitions, or challenge ourselves with player vs player modes and events. Some of best parts of the trailer look to be the mass races, with a large number of player clambering over each other to be the first across the finish line (or the last one standing…).

Looking for a massively multiplayer extreme sports game? Riders Republic is something new and fun!

Option B: Watch Dogs Legion has just enjoyed it’s first birthday and the online world is teeming with new life. Join in on a game that lets you play as well… pretty much anyone you meet while your explore a near-future London. Fight back against the authoritarian powers who want to take over, and find out who is behind the Zero-Day bombings.

The world is large and richly populated, it’s as easy to spend the night messing around playing darts in a pub as it is to do some of the games missions, and you can play this one with friends now too, there is a range of co-op mode missions to enjoy together!

With so much to offer players, and so many ways to complete the game adding to the replayability of this one, Watch Dogs Legion is probably going to be the top pick for most!

Option C: Immortals Fenyx Rising is an utterly gorgeous game set in the open world filled with Greek Gods & their mythological kin. It’s the only game on our list that can be tried before you commit thanks to the Immortals Fenyx Rising Demo being freely available to download on PC.

If you enjoy adventure platformers, this is a great pick. The quest will have you mastering the legendary powers of the gods as you face familiar beasts such as Cyclops, Medusa & Minotaur.

The game is well optimised and easy to enjoy at very high resolutions, the weapon variety and wings combine nicely to create free flowing combat and exploration.

Step #2 is Ubisoft Pick 1 of 2 Games

Option A: ANNO 1800 welcomes you to the dawn of the Industrial Age in this excellent city builder game. Will you innovate or exploit? Liberate those in need, or perhaps become the oppressor..?!

A sprawling world is yours to create and manage, you’ll be celebrated by your citizens if you succeed and scorned when you don’t. Plan efficient logistic networks, explore, settle new lands, and dominate your opponents by diplomacy, trade, or warfare.

Build an empire that will stand the test of time. This game is capable of pushing your new CPU to its limits with the huge metropolises.

Option B: Star Trek Bridge Crew was originally released as an exclusively VR experience, but now this team based Star Trek simulator is playable with or without.

Have you ever wanted serve on a Federation Starship? Well, this rather epic game actually lets you become crew or captain on the USS Aegis, a new Starfleet ship sent to explore uncharted space in search of a new Vulcan homeworld.​ As officers of the Federation, every action and decision you make together will determine the fate of your ship and crew.

This is quite a unique game, offering players a true-to-life level of immersion in the Star Trek universe. A must have for those wanting a multiplayer VR experience, and now very enjoyable without VR too.

Step #3 gives you another game named Hunter’s Arena: Legends and some DLC for that game, no need to choose 🙂 There are some conditions in which the World of Tanks in-game currency offer can’t be redeemed to an existing account, but you could always create an alt account if you really wanted.

So there we have it, that’s 3 awesome new games (at least) and some sweet extras, thanks to both Intel and Ubisoft for the sweet new bundle!

Timed rather nicely with the 11th Gen Intel CPU release, this offer is available for limited time and only on certain models, see the latest in the Intel Store.

Godfall: Get ready to hack your way through hordes in this looter-slasher, melee action-RPG 🙂 You are the last of the Valorian knights, god-like warriors able to equip Valorplates, legendary armor sets that transform wielders into unstoppable masters of melee combat. Tear through foes as you climb through each of the elemental realms and challenge the mad god, Macros who awaits you at the top.

World of Warcraft Shadowlands: Discover what lies beyond the world you know in the next chapter of the World of Warcraft saga – Shadowlands! The veil between life and death is no more. With a single act of destruction, Sylvanas Windrunner has ripped open the way to the afterlife. Azeroth’s staunchest defenders have been dragged into all-consuming darkness. An ancient force of death threatens to break its bonds and unravel reality.

Hidden realms of wonder and horror await any who would pass to the other side. The Shadowlands is home to an entire realm of the departed; it is a world between worlds whose delicate balance preserves life and death itself. As one of Azeroth’s greatest champions, you have been granted the power to cross over in body and soul. Now you must investigate a conspiracy to unmake the cosmos, and help Warcraft legends journey back… or fulfill their ultimate destiny.

Align yourself with one of four Covenants—mysterious sects, each with their own ambition for the Shadowlands—to restore balance to the hereafter

If you havn’t played WoW yet, you’re in for a treat, the base game is free to try if you’re wanting to jump in ahead of the Shadowlands update too 🙂

GAME ON!

Rainbow 6 Seige: Master the art of destruction and gadgetry in Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege. Face intense close-quarters combat, high lethality, tactical decision making, team play and explosive action within every moment. Engage in a brand-new style of assault using an unrivalled level of destruction and gadgetry!

On defence: Coordinate with your team to transform your environments into strongholds. Trap, fortify and create defensive systems to prevent being breached by the enemy.

On attack: Lead your team through narrow corridors, barricaded doorways and reinforced walls. Combine tactical maps, observation drones, rappelling and more to plan, attack and defuse every situation.

The Gold Edition pack allows the player to choose from dozens of highly trained, Special Forces operators from around the world. Deploy the latest technology to track enemy movement. Shatter walls to open new lines of fire. Breach ceilings and floors to create new access points. Employ every weapon and gadget from your deadly arsenal to locate, manipulate and destroy your enemies and the environment around them.

Running high frames and refresh rates on competitive games allow you to see things sooner and hit what you are aiming at. This Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six Siege high FPS and Hz video shows the benefits of using a powerful graphics card like the GeForce RTX 2080Ti with a 240 Hz monitor.

The base game feels like a modern Counterstrike at first, so you can jump in and get into the lethal shooter gameplay side right away, but much like CS as you learn the various levels the game starts to evolve into a very deep, rather slow tactical shooter, packed full of glorious PVP misdirection and bait movements.

More than just point and shoot, there is a real emphasis on using environmental sounds to locate the enemies in this one too, adding to the tension and everyone slowly creeps about the place, peeping through holes in walls and popping off rounds to cover the sounds created elsewhere.

You can play the game in a single-player mode they call ‘situations’ and this is great for trying out new things without having to wait for the match to end to try things again. Multiplayer is also doable in solo queue but the game really comes into its own when you team up with mates and get on the microphones.

You don’t actually need to have the highest-end graphics card to enjoy this game too, 60+ FPS is achievable on entry-level GTX configs (remember this game bonus offer is ONLY for RTX graphics cards though), simply don a riot shield, work with your team, and have fun emptying the clip 🙂

GAME ON!
