Valentine's Day is a well cherished celebration of love named for the harsh activities that were presented to St. Valentine. In games it has now become a staple of an event where players usually receive some great digital content whether that be weapon skins or some other sort of content. There could also be special deals or small rewards, who knows when it comes to developers sharing the love of the holiday.
It's also best to assume that this events take place on every platform that the title is available so no need to specify. With this list I've compiled what events are going on so you can unlock all the free content without missing anything. If I did however miss a game that's giving away content specific to Valentine's Day or even a special event be sure to let me know!
