The Epic Games Store found its place in the PC market thanks to its catalog and initiatives that resonated with the community. Week after week, users with an account can claim for free a selection of titles. Luckily, the good streak will continue.
Last week, players could get a free copy of Islets, a charming metroidvania featuring fantasy elements.
Now, it's confirmed that The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition by Obsidian Entertainment and Thief by Eidos Montreal are the new free titles that will be available between April 4 and 11. Additionally, we already know the game that will replace them, and there's good news.
Epic Games Store will give away Ghostrunner
Epic Games revealed the identity of next week's free title. Action enthusiasts are in luck as they'll be able to claim and keep forever a copy of Ghostrunner, the acclaimed parkour FPS developed by One More Level and published by 505 Games.
The single-player cyberpunk-themed game will be available at no cost in the digital store from April 11 to 18. Currently, it's available for $599 MXN. The game that will replace it is unknown, but more information is likely to be released during the upcoming week.
These are the upcoming free games from the Epic Games Store:
- The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition ― April 4 to 11
- Thief ― April 4 to 11
- Ghostrunner ― April 11 to 18
What is Ghostrunner?
For those unfamiliar, Ghostrunner is a first-person game that combines parkour and first-person action elements. Here, we play as a robot embarking on an adventure in the Dharma Tower to defeat a fearsome tyrant known as the Keymaster.
The goal is to overcome each level without taking damage, as a hit or a shot will result in the protagonist's death. In that sense, we're facing a very challenging experience that demands quick reactions.
This title by 505 Games debuted in 2020 and received praise from critics and fans alike for its excellent cyberpunk setting and demanding difficulty. Currently, it has very positive reviews on Steam and an average score of 81 on Metacritic. Thanks to its positive reception, a sequel was released in 2023 that expands on the narrative, combat system, and exploration.
But tell us, will you give this game a chance when the store gives it away? Let us know in the comments.
