You can claim it for free from March 6 until March 13 at 16:00 UTC.
Upcoming Free Game
Following this, a new free game will take its place, and it’s an action RPG called Mortal Shell. This title, which will also be free soon, typically sells for $29.99 without any discounts. It will be available for claiming from March 13 at 16:00 UTC until March 20 at 16:00 UTC.
Game Ratings and Features
When it comes to the game itself, Mortal Shell does not enjoy as high ratings as many previous free offerings on the Epic Games Store. Specifically, it holds a “Mixed” rating on Steam, having garnered over 7,000 player reviews. This could be attributed to its confusing level designs, which some players describe as overly maze-like.
Critics have also pointed out the limited variety and depth of the gameplay. It reportedly features only a few weapons and character classes, which may make it less engaging for repeated playthroughs. On the positive side, Mortal Shell incorporates a combat system reminiscent of Dark Souls, which adds to the challenge.
Gameplay Mechanics
This soon-to-be-free game requires players to manage their stamina, adding an extra layer of difficulty to the combat experience. Each weapon in Mortal Shell comes with its own unique moveset and special abilities. Additionally, there are four distinct Shells (character classes) that offer varying playstyles and stats.
The narrative of the game is designed to be cryptic, urging players to piece together the story through exploration and interactions with non-playable characters (NPCs). For more details about this upcoming free title, see the video linked below.
In addition to Mortal Shell, the Epic Games Store will also be offering a limited-time exclusive DLC for World of Warships. This will also be available for free during the same period, from March 13 at 16:00 UTC to March 20 at 16:00 UTC. The package includes:
