3. Super Meat Boy Forever Mobile is currently priced at $0.99 but has rare physical versions selling for over $40.

5. The Epic Games Store app is not available on the App Store or Google Play; users must follow specific instructions to install it on mobile devices.

The Epic Games Store has been offering Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR) along with its sequel, KOTOR II: The Sith Lords, on Android and iOS since last month. Today, these titles are likely to be swapped out for a fresh giveaway, in line with the company’s goal to expand its mobile free game initiative this year.

Upcoming Game Announcement

Usually, the store reveals its next free game ahead of schedule. While this is the case for its PC platform, mobile users don’t get the same heads-up. However, Reddit user u/MeguminShiro has jumped the gun by disclosing what will take the place of KOTOR and KOTOR II starting at 15:00 UTC today.

As per u/MeguminShiro’s information, the store is set to provide Super Meat Boy Forever Mobile at no cost, which is currently priced at $0.99 on both Android and iOS. If this information holds true, it would mark Epic Games’ least valuable mobile giveaway so far. However, physical versions of Super Meat Boy Forever are quite rare and are priced above $40 on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 (currently $43.54 on Amazon).

Restrictions on Free Games

Keep in mind that there are still limitations when it comes to redeeming free Epic Games Store titles on iOS and iPadOS. At this moment, only individuals located in the European Union and the UK are able to download the free mobile games from the Epic Games Store. Additionally, the Epic Games Store app cannot be directly obtained from the App Store or Google Play Store. For guidance on how to install its mobile app on Android and iOS, please refer to Epic Games’ support pages.
