Epic Games Store has not one, but two new free games for EGS users to download for free. This week, the two games combine for a value of $45, so there is opportunity for substantial savings. And unlike some weeks, both games are fairly notable, though neither is AAA nor of the upmost consequence. That said, and as always, once claimed, the games are yours to keep, no strings attached. There is subscription required nor is this anything akin to a rental, or a demo, or a free trial. It is a proper free download forever attached to your Epic Games Store account.ย
As for the games this week, they are Orcs Must Die! 3 and Cat Quest II. The former is a 2020 game that retails for $30 from Robot Entertainment. While its name suggests it is the third game in the series, it is actually the fourth game in the Orcs Must Die series.ย The other game hails from 2019 as a sequel to 2017’s Cat Quest. It was developed by Gentlebros and published by PQube, both of which are currently working on bringing a third game in the series, Cat Quest III, to the market.ย
