As the calendar continues its ceaseless onward march, Epic has announced its next batch of weekly Epic Games Store freebies, which this time look very much like Cold War shooter Industria and post-apocalyptic RPG bundle Lisa: Definitive Edition.
Next week's Epic Games Store freebie has been revealed
04.04.2024 - 23:37 / eurogamer.net
With the Epic Games Store's latest weekly freebie offers now live, Epic has turned its gaze to the far-flung future of seven days time, confirming acclaimed cyberpunk action-parkour adventure Ghostrunner will be its next free title from Thursday, 11th April.
Ghostrunner, which launched to much acclaim back in October 2020, cast players as protagonist Jack as they scale the dystopian Dharma Tower — humanity's last shelter following a cataclysmic event — on a quest to topple the tyrannical Keymaster and take their revenge.
What follows is some brutally difficult first-person parkour action, as players leap and bound their way across neon-smeared levels, eliminating enemies in bouts of breathlessly balletic katana swinging. Unless they're terrible at it like me, in which case they'll lumber clumsily around the place, forget which buttons they're supposed to press then quit in a furious rage.
Ghostrunner | Official Pax 2020 Trailer — Pre-order Ghostrunner! Ghostunner trailer.Watch on YouTube«Ghostrunner is a game about acrobatic routines, about devising them and performing them,» Eurogamer's Robert Purchese wrote in his Recommended review back in 2020. «You're an incredibly agile character who can wall-run, slide around, swing around, dash around and even slow time. But you're also an incredibly fragile character who will die in one blow from anything. The challenge of Ghostrunner, therefore, is a kind of elegance: not getting hit while simultaneously getting close enough to hit and slice apart others.»
Ghostrunner is good stuff then (plus its soundtrack is superb) and it'll be free to download and keep via the Epic Games Store for one week starting Thursday, 11th April. That means you've still got plenty of time to download Epic's current freebies, which, if you missed the news last week, look an awful lot like The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition and 2014's Thief reboot.

Epic Games Store Reveals Free Game Coming on April 18
Another Thursday means another rotation on the Epic Games Store. As of this writing, fans can no longer claim sci-fi RPG The Outer Worlds or stealth game Thief, but they can grab up cyberpunk action performer Ghostrunner. Between the three is a lot of variety in gameplay styles but also a lot of quality, as each is an excellent game with positive reviews (or a cult following in the case of Thief). Once Ghostrunner rotates out on April 18, fans will be able to claim The Big Con.
