To kick off the sale, Dragon Age: Inquisition is available for free. Originally released in 2014, this open-world fantasy RPG garnered excellent reviews, including from Polygon, and remains a testament to Bioware’s narrative prowess during that era.
While Dragon Age: Inquisition is the standout free offering, the Epic Mega Sale also includes significant discounts on various other titles. Notable deals include Alan Wake 2 at $39.99 (20% off), Expeditions: A MudRunner Game at $31.99 (20% off), Skull and Bones at $29.99 (50% off), Dead Island 2 at $29.99 (50% off), and Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown reduced to $29.99 (40% off).
For those seeking recommendations, Alan Wake 2 is highly recommended for its gripping horror narrative. The game follows a horror novelist, Alan Wake, who finds himself in a dark dimension plagued by supernatural entities. Despite the protagonist being used to terrors like bad book reviews, the ghostly adversaries in this game offer a genuinely terrifying experience.
Alternatively, Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown offers a change of pace with its expertly designed Metroidvania gameplay. The game emphasizes precise melee combat and challenging platform puzzles. It also features adjustable difficulty settings, allowing players to modify or skip elements they find too difficult, enhancing the overall enjoyment. The storyline, while secondary in many games within this genre, is particularly engaging and adds depth to the exploration and combat experience.
