If it is 2 times per year and extends for a period of 2 months, that is almost half of the entire year.
That sounds crazy to me, I would never ever work 60 hours a week without getting paid for it. Many game companies make ridicolous amounts of money, there is no reason why they shouldn't pay a reasonable salary for it.
60 hour work weeks are insane and you should never accept that.
