If you can tune out the noise, it's a lot of funFrom today until Thursday, May 26, you can download Borderlands 3 for free (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/borderlands-3) from the Epic Games Store ? or just add it to your never-actually-gonna-play-this PC game pile.
Is it worth your time? Well, that depends (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-borderlands-3/) on how into Borderlands you were in the early days and how open to the series you are today. I'm the type of person who can tune out a lot of the grating NPC chatter and just enjoy the character-building, loot-snatching, kinda-mindless-in-a-good-way setup ? but maybe that's too tall of an order for you in 2022.
Borderlands 3 is particularly fun with co-op partners by your side (that goes for all of these games), and there are neat overpowered guns waiting to be found. Speaking of which, the PC version does allow cross-play (https://borderlands.com/en-US/news/2020-03-05-borderlands-3-steam-faq/), so if you're getting Borderlands 3 for free from the Epic Games Store and your friends already have it on Steam, you'll be able to play together.
My favorite change in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-tiny-tinas-wonderlands/) was the new on-foot overworld, which I greatly preferred to all of the driving in Borderlands 3 that ultimately felt like busywork to me. That said, the prior game still has its place in many ways, especially if you're even remotely interested in this ever-expanding universe (https://www.destructoid.com/new-tales-from-the-borderlands-game-gearbox-what-can-we-expect/). If you're primarily in it for the RPG-ified shooter gameplay at this point (same!), it's worth checking out. I mean, it is free.
This freebie was a "mystery game" until it unwrapped itself today, and the Epic Games Store's next deal is a surprise, too. We'll find out what the next giveaway is on May 26.
https://d23gn3985hkc32.cloudfront.net/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/epic-mega-sale-EN.jpg The Epic Mega Sale runs until June 16, 2022.
The Epic Mega Sale has 25% off couponsWhile you're here, it's also worth mentioning that the Epic Mega Sale (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/sales-and-specials/mega-sale) is running right now through June 16. Naturally, there are automatic coupons, too ? 25% off.
In terms of high-profile deals, there's Ghostwire: Tokyo (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/ghostwire-tokyo) ($39.59), Dying Light 2 (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/dying-light-2-stay-human) ($53.99), Tiny Tina's Wonderlands (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/tiny-tinas-wonderlands) ($47.99), and Final Fantasy VII Remake Intergrade (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/final-fantasy-vii-remake-intergrade) ($49.69). And remember: games priced at $14.99 or above qualify for the bonus 25% off coupon (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/coupons/mega-sale).
I'll also point to this list (https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/List_of_games_exclusive_to_Epic_Games_Store) of the current Epic Games Store exclusive games (that aren't also available on Steam), which can be tricky to pin down. More recently, there are games like Sifu (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/sifu) ($35.99), Stranger of Paradise: Final Fantasy Origin (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/stranger-of-paradise-final-fantasy-origin) ($44.99), Salt and Sacrifice (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/salt-and-sacrifice) ($19.99), and Evil Dead: The Game (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/evil-dead-the-game) ($39.99), the latter two of which just launched.
