Epic Games Store has two new free games, including a PC game with a 95-rating on Steam. Combined, the two PC games offer EGS users $40 in value. Neither game is very new, though. The one hails from 2024, while the other hails from 2021. And it is the latter that has very high remarks on Steam. While they aren\u2019t the newest releases on PC, they are 100% free for all PC users to download and keep. The only catch is that Epic Games Store users only have one week to redeem the offer, which will expire on February 19. <\/p>\n
The first of the two new Epic Games Store free games, the one with the 95% approval rating on Steam, is The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark<\/em>. Meanwhile, the other new free Epic Games Store game is Nobody Wants to Die<\/em>. The former normally costs $15, while the latter normally sets PC users back $25. <\/p>\n \t\t\tPlay video<\/span><\/p>\n The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark<\/em> is an adventure game released in 2021 by developer Spooky Doorway and publisher Akupara Games. It is a follow-up to 2017\u2019s The Darkside Detective<\/em>, and is getting its own follow-up, The Darkside Detective: Backside of the Moon<\/em>, which is currently in the works. <\/p>\n To date, the game has 1,527 user reviews on Steam, with a 95% approval rating. This gives the PC game an \u201cOverwhelmingly Positive\u201d rating, which is the highest rating a PC game can earn on Steam. <\/p>\n \t\t\tPlay video<\/span><\/p>\n Nobody Wants to Die <\/em>is an action-adventure game released in 2024 by developer Critical Hit Games and publisher Plaion. It is a standalone release, and actually the debut for the former. <\/p>\n So far, it has 2,540 user reviews on Steam, with an 83% approval rating. This gives it a \u201cVery Positive\u201d rating on Steam, the second top rating a PC game can earn on the Valve platform.<\/p>\n As always, even if you have no intention of playing these games, be sure to claim them as free anyway in case this ever changes. In particular, The Darkside Detective: A Fumble in the Dark<\/em> is one of the better indie games of 2021. To this end, it is one of the best free games given out by the storefront so far this year. Nobody Wants to Die<\/em> is a bit less impressive, but if you like cyberpunk-themed content, then it\u2019s worth giving a quick download and trial. Meanwhile, if these new free games don\u2019t tickle your fancy, they aren\u2019t the only new freebies. Steam has a new free game, that also happens to be a cyberpunk-themed game, which has been earning some attention.<\/p>\n All of that said, and as always, feel free to leave a comment or two letting us know what you think, or join the conversation over on the ComicBook Forum.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Epic Games Store has two new free games, including a PC game with a 95-rating on Steam.
