How to Download

Every game on GameBounty has a Download button that takes you to its download page. There you'll find one or more mirrors. Each mirror hosts the same game, just on a different file host.

1. Pick a Mirror

A mirror is one upload of the game on one host. Pick whichever loads fastest for you — they all contain the same files.

If a mirror's host is dead, slow, or asks for a paid account to download, switch to another mirror on the same page.

2. Download Every Part

Games are split into multiple parts (part1, part2, part3, …) so each file fits within the host's per-file size limit.

You need all parts to extract the game. Missing one will cause the extraction to fail with a "Cannot find next volume" error.

  • Click each part link in order.
  • Save every part to the same folder.
  • Don't rename the files. The parts are linked by name (Game.part1.rar, Game.part2.rar, …) and renaming them breaks extraction.

3. Get Through the Host's Page

Mirror links point to a page on the file host. The page usually shows a button like "Download" or "Slow Download". Some hosts also show a short timer or a captcha before revealing the actual file link.

A few things that help:

  • Use uBlock Origin in your browser. File-host pages are heavy with overlay ads and fake "Download" buttons — uBlock removes them.
  • Click only the real download button. It's the one that triggers the file save dialog. Anything that opens a new tab is an ad.
  • If the host requires a captcha, solve it normally. Don't install any browser extension that promises to "auto-solve" captchas.

4. Optional: Use a Download Manager

Built-in browser downloads are fine for small games. For anything over a few GB, a download manager is faster and safer because it can resume if your connection drops.

Two free options:

  • Free Download Manager — easiest. Install it and copy a download link, it offers to grab it.
  • JDownloader 2 — more features, handles many hosts at once. Good if you queue up multiple parts.

If a download fails halfway, both managers can resume from where they stopped instead of starting over.

5. Extract and Install

Once every part is downloaded into the same folder, head to the Installation Guide.
