TubularOnline retail outlet Epic Games Store has revealed the next title that it will be offering up to its users gratis, following this week's current offerings ? And it will be none other than the old-school cool release Toe Jam & Earl: Back in the Groove (https://www.destructoid.com/reviews/review-toejam-earl-back-in-the-groove/), which will be available to all customers on October 13 (https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/free-games).
Released to PC and consoles in the spring of 2019, Back in the Groove saw the long-awaited return of early '90s gaming goofballs Toe Jam & Earl, as the awesome aliens once again returned to their isometric adventure roots. Once again, the funky fresh aliens have crash-landed on Planet Earth, and must recover all of the pieces of their "Rapmaster Rocket" in order to get back out into the great beyond.

Now sporting a roster of both new and familiar playable characters, as well as four-player co-op action, the series' dopey sense of humor, and the tongue-in-cheek "radical" vibes of the 1990s, all slickly adapted for the modern age. A suitably fresh soundtrack was composed by funk musician Cody Wright, while the entire project was overseen by Toe Jam & Earl co-creator Greg Johnson and, believe it or not, lifelong fan Macaulay Culkin.
On release, Back in the Groove was welcomed by the TJ&E fanbase, while critical reviews ranged wildly from mediocre to excellent. As divisive as the duo has ever been, Back in the Groove is clearly a title that will mean different things to different players. At least, given its upcoming freebie status, you'll be able to check out where you stand on the animated actioner ? no strings attached, dude.
Toe Jam & Earl: Back in the Groove will be free to download from Epic Games Store from October 13. Until then, you still have time to bag current freebies Rising Hell and Slain: Back from Hell (https://www.destructoid.com/rising-hell-slain-back-from-hell-epic-games-stores-free-games-october/)from the store.
