Free games on Epic Games Store

Critically acclaimed action-RPG Fallout 3: Game of the Year Edition and Evoland Legendary Edition will soon be free to download from the Epic Games Store.

The two titles will replace Darkwood and ToeJam & Earl: Back in the Groove, both of which are free to download until Thursday, October 20th. Both new games are expected to be available to download for free until October 27th.

2022 marks the Fallout franchise’s 25th anniversary, and what better time to distribute one of the best open-world RPG titles for users to enjoy?

Evoland is also an RPG, developed by Shiro Games. The title takes you through multiple eras of gaming, starting off with black and white graphics, to a pixelated world and all the way to a full-blown 3D RPG title, featuring active time battles, real-time boss fights and plenty of humour and references to several classic games.

Knockout City is an action brawler dodgeball game where you and your friends can team up to take out rival Crews, whereas Submerged: Hidden Depthsis a combat-free exploration and adventure third-person title where you scour a flooded and sunken post-apocalyptic world and restore the balance of nature.

Square Enix’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider is more well-known out of the bunch. MobileSyrup’s Brad Shankar reviewed the title back in 2018 and said that “Shadow of the Tomb Raider largely succeeds in wrapping up this saga in Lara Croft’s life, with a solid ending that sets up elements from the original PlayStation games. While Shadow of the Tomb Raider might not reinvent the wheel, it still offers much more of what you liked from the previous games.”
