Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Rainbow Six: Siege, Ubisoft's super-destructive FPS, is free to play this weekend for gamers on PC.
From Friday 15 April to 9 p.m on Sunday 19, everyone can get a chance to play the full game for absolutely nothing.
To get access, users need to launch or install Uplay PC and click the big Rainbow Six banner at the top to start the download.
The free trial can also be accessed through Steam - just go to Siege's Steam page and click the banner to get started.
If you enjoy using the trial to breach doors, destroy walls and shoot up the environment, it's also available to buy at a decent discount - it's been reduced on Steam by 33 per cent, taking it from £39.99 to a more reasonable £26.79.
The 'Gold Edition' of the game, which gives players access to the season pass and new in-game perks and characters, is reduced by 40 per cent, going from £54.99 to £32.99.
Like the free trial, these offers end on 19 April, so act fast if you want to snap them up.
