The Epic Games Store Free Games For September 11 Are an Unexpected Triple Threat

by

Starting from 2018, what was initially a holiday giveaway has turned into a weekly tradition that keeps me and countless others glued to the Epic Games Store every Thursday at 10 AM CT. Each week, we eagerly visit the store to claim a fresh, free title for our collection, eagerly anticipating the surprises in store for the following week. The Epic Games Store leverages this promotion to bring attention to lesser-known games, predominantly indies, giving us an opportunity to explore them at no additional cost.

Despite the consistent offering of free games by Epic, there can be occasional glitches. For instance, this year saw some games being unexpectedly added mid-week as a compensation for providing in-game items instead of full games in April. An incident involving the game “F.I.S.T: Forged in Shadow Torch” in 2023 resulted in the promised free game not being delivered. However, another such situation has led to fans receiving three free games on the Epic Games Store during the week of September 11.

Epic Games Store Free Game Monument Valley 2 Explained

At present, players can grab the highly praised optical illusion puzzle game, Monument Valley, without any additional charges from the Epic Games Store. In the coming week, users who have either secured Monument Valley or given it a trial run will also be eligible to acquire its sequel at no cost. As suggested on the store page for Monument Valley 2, it features fresh environments, new puzzles to unravel, and a control scheme and breathtaking vistas tailored exclusively for Monument Valley’s new platform, PC.

If players missed out on Epic’s free giveaway of the original Monument Valley, they can rest easy knowing that the sequel, Monument Valley 2, is designed to be self-contained and enjoyable independently. Given the immense popularity and acclaim the first Monument Valley received from both players and critics, Monument Valley 2 is a game puzzle enthusiasts won’t want to overlook due to its highly praised improvement upon the original title. In essence, Monument Valley 2 offers more of the same quality experience with added enhancements that elevate it above its predecessor. With improved visuals and soundscapes, Monument Valley 2 on the Epic Games Store is a relaxing escape not to be missed.

Epic Games Store Free Game Ghostrunner 2 Explained

The game titled “Ghostrunner” features a cyber-ninja named Jack. A year after the events of the previous game, players take on Jack’s role and face tough bosses to test their speed and accuracy. Armed only with a katana, players must navigate through waves of AI opponents whose behavior adapts according to the skills they choose. This results in each playthrough being distinct and demanding.

Enthusiasts have extensively debated the upcoming game, “Ghostrunner 2,” as opinions about it are polarized. Some find aspects of it superior to the original while others believe it falls short in certain areas, indicating that this free offering on the Epic Games Store could be an acquired preference. However, on Steam, it has garnered largely positive reviews, making it an intriguing option for players eager to explore it without risk. Thus, for those interested, the opportunity to try “Ghostrunner 2” for free via Epic presents a perfect chance to form their own opinions.

To round off the triple treat for the week of September 11, players may have the opportunity to acquire “The Battle of Polytopia” alongside “Monument Valley 2” and “Ghostrunner 2”. The former, “Polytopia”, appears to be a highly recommended title for users of Epic Games Store as it’s often lauded as an excellent introduction to turn-based strategy games. Regular visitors to the storefront might find this addition less surprising since it was intended to be a free game on the Epic Games Store this week rather than next.

It’s puzzling to discover that The Battle of Polytopia has been postponed for a week, but on the bright side, it provides more time for gamers to get ready and grab the game. The Epic Games Store occasionally experiences such delays with its free games promotion, but there’s always a fresh title to claim every week. Incidents such as these simply remind us to pay close attention to the free games page, since you never know what surprises it might hold each week.
