Upcoming Free Games

According to a leak from MeguminShiro, Figment 2: Creed Valley and Sky Racket will be available at no cost from July 10 to July 17 at 15:00 UTC. Figment 2 is an action-adventure title that continues the story from the first game in the series.

In this game, players will embody Dusty, who is joined by his upbeat sidekick, Piper, as they confront various foes. The boss encounters in this new free title are synchronized with the game’s music, creating a unique and rhythmic fighting experience.

Game Features and Pricing

In Figment 2: Creed Valley, Dusty can toggle between two different “Mind” states, which change the environment and open up new paths for story progression. Normally, this game retails for $24.99 when it’s not on sale and boasts a “Very Positive” rating on Steam.

Next up is Sky Racket, touted as the “world’s first Shmup Breaker.” This game combines elements from classic block breaker games with shoot ’em ups. The gameplay is particularly engaging, as players cannot attack directly.

Instead, players must destroy blocks and defeat enemies by reflecting projectiles back at them. The boss fights in Sky Racket require quick reflexes, and some levels include intense bullet hell challenges.

Sky Racket is priced at $14.99 and also holds a “Very Positive” rating from players on Steam. For more insight into these upcoming free games on the Epic Games Store, check out the videos linked below.
