Epic Games Store Just Added One of 2023's Best Games
19.03.2024 - 22:07 / gamerant.com / John Bonelli
Don't Nod Entertainment's 2023 climbing adventure game Jusant has made its way onto the Epic Games Store. One of last year's more unique titles, Jusant launched day one onto Xbox Game Pass in October, as well as on PlayStation 5 and Steam, initially skipping an Epic Games Store release.
French developer Don't Nod is mainly known for its popular narrative adventure games like the Life is Strange franchise and other similar titles like Twin Mirror and Tell Me Why. With that said, when the studio revealed Jusant, a unique climbing adventure experience, at Xbox's Summer Game Fest showcase, many fans of Don't Nod were puzzled yet delighted at the developer's impressive range of game scales and art styles. Jusant's style of gameplay turned out to be a perfect fit for the studio's signature minimalist visuals.
Almost five months after Jusant's Fall release, Don't Nod revealed that it has now launched on Epic Games Store. In a tweet accompanied by a trailer, Don't Nod expressed that its climbing adventure game is available on Epic's store at a 20% discount. Jusant's base price on the storefront is $25, but is discounted to $20; gamers who use Epic Games Store can take advantage of this until March 26.
Now that Jusant has landed on the Epic Games Store, there's still one platform it hasn't released on that it would seem perfect for. With its minimalist, low-detail art style and relatively small scope, the Nintendo Switch would make a perfect home for a game like Jusant. Many of Don't Nod's previous games, like the first two Life is Strange games, last year's Harmony: The Fall of Reverie, and even the much more graphically demanding Vampyr have found their way onto Nintendo's platform over the years; Jusant seems like a no-brainer.
Fans of Don't Nod's games have just been treated to another AAA-style action-adventure title in Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden, which mixes fierce third-person combat with the story of two ghost hunters who are also lovers. Looking ahead, the studio has another Life is Strange-like narrative experience in Lost Records: Bloom and Rage, which is also looking to release sometime later this year. Whether it makes it onto Epic Games Store at launch is unknown.

Epic Games Store Free Game for March 28 Revealed
The Epic Games Store free game for March 28 is Islets.
