Interplay's original Wasteland, the seminal post-apocalyptic RPG that inspired Fallout, which then in turn inspired pretty much everything else, was released three decades ago in 1988. To celebrate such an impressive milestone, inXile has released the Wasteland 30th Anniversary Bundle on Steam for $44.99 or your regional equivalent.
The bundle contains the original Wasteland, the Director's Cut of Wasteland 2, a number of digital extras, including a fresh music track from the upcoming Wasteland 3, and in early 2019, it will also add Wasteland - 30th Anniversary Edition remaster to your game library. The remaster is created by Krome Studios, the team behind the remasters of the original The Bard's Tale trilogy. You can find some examples of their work in this Kickstarter update for The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep.
Here are some bundle details:
