This Week’s Free Games

Empyrion – Galactic Survival

Is Starfield not really your thing? In Empyrion, you get the true space sandbox survival adventure feeling. This game cleverly combines elements from space simulations, construction games, survival games, and first-person shooters. You get to build anywhere in the galaxy and settle down wherever you want. There are no limits to your creativity as you terraform the terrain on any planet. 

Empyrion was first released in 2020. The game has since amassed positive reviews on Steam, where it is available for a regular price of $20. It is free for a limited time on the Epic Games Store, but the offer ends this week.

Outliver: Tribulation

Outliver is a hidden gem. The game fuses African Mythology and Souls-like elements together into an otherworldly experience. You play as a soldier who ends up in a supernatural realm. To escape, you have to take part in an ancient ritual. Outliver is atmospheric, story-driven, and, according to Steam users, a clear recommendation. The game is usually available for around $7.
