As for the other games? Well, Epic is only giving away one game this week.
Epic Games Store is continuing to offer free games every week for the foreseeable future as part of its commitment to winning over gamers. It's aiming to establish itself as a serious game distribution force, duking it out against the long-standing king of PC gaming, Valve's Steam platform.
While Epic has courted some controversy through its aggressive approach to securing PC gaming exclusives for its platform, it's hard to argue against its continued distribution of top-notch free games.
Next week's games
Can't wait to get your hands on some more games without spending a penny? Epic is giving away The Fall for free from March 18.
