Next week’s free Epic Games Store titles have been revealed.
Single-player narrative adventure Beyond Blue and puzzle platformer Never Alone will be free to download from Epic’s PC marketplace from April 20-27.
They will replace Mordhau and Second Extinction, which are now free to claim until April 20.
The Epic Games Store gave away 99 free titles last year (up from 89 in 2021). These games had a combined worth of $2,240 and users claimed over 700 million free titles (down from 765 million in 2021), according to Epic.
