January 9 through 16
[Update:In a rare move,For the Kingis no longer going to be the free game for the week of January 9. Instead,Sundered Eldritch Editionwill take that spot.We have a review for itand it’s live right now.]
In April of 2018 (I almost said “last April,” but it’s 2020 y’all!)For the Kingkind of came in under the radar. Billed as a “roguelike tabletop adventure” a lot of people didn’t know what to expect, but as a fan of all three I was intrigued. As it turns out, like many other games before it, that combo works out pretty well.
For the Kingis about to hit it big with a brand new audience, as the game is free on the Epic Games Store on January 9. That’s literally whenDarksiders I,IIandSteepcycle out, so be sure to grab that trio while you can. As a reminder, cycling happens at exactly 11AM ET,andyou can grab those threeonline or on your mobile devicewithout having to use the launcher.
From here on out, it looks like Epic is getting back to its regular cadence of free stuff without an interrupting avalanche of mass freebies. You have a week to claimFor the Kingthen the cycle begins anew with the original “Get a Free Game Every Week” marketing scheme. It was nice while it lasted!
