Sorry for the slight OT, but whenever I see something like
 
's/Chivalry2Launcher.exe/TBL\/Binaries\/Win64\/Chivalry2-Win64-Shipping.exe/'

Something like
 
's%Chivalry2Launcher.exe%TBL/Binaries/Win64/Chivalry2-Win64-Shipping.exe%'

avoids escaping every / in a path.

Edit: Okay, maybe not % since that is used by steam, but it's completely arbitrary.

My guess is that they wanted to include a discount code and accidentally included the game.

Quoting: Nic264This also seems to be quite common for creative software, two other (great) examples on the top of my head where the official no-cost binary is only for demo purposes:
