Here is the /r/PiratedGames Megathread! - Translations

Required components

Install all before downloading games (legitimate or pirated) to avoid crashes from missing software on your computer.

Direct download sites

Direct downloads are normal downloads from a server, being safer and not requiring a VPN. You may need a VPN to access blocked file hosts (for example, Rapidgator in some EU countries). Check the download managers section for help managing your downloads.

Torrent sites

Torrents are P2P downloads from other users, without servers. You will need a VPN to torrent safely and avoid ISP copyright notices, unless your country tolerates piracy. Check the VPNs section for more info.

Repacks

Repacks are compressed games for low-bandwidth users, but installing them takes time due to file decompression.

Trainers (cheats)

Not for online games. No cheating in online games!

Release trackers

No downloads provided. Sites have P2P/scene release info. Check here to see if a game is cracked!

ROM sites
