A true Giveaway is an occurrence in Spiral Knights that is associated with major updates and events. Items are given "absolutely free" to players, usually randomly during the occurrence, with no other strings attached, such as an energy purchase and so on. Simply logging in during the occurrence (rank does not seem to matter) makes a knight eligible for prizes. A few unusual giveaways do not follow this behavior, and some even occur unannounced.
