The Epic Games Store has just launched its latest free offering, and it's a big one for fans of the Star Wars universe. You can now grab Bioware's critically acclaimed Knights of the Old Republic duology at no cost on the Epic Games Store for mobile. This is a golden opportunity for those who have yet to experience these fan-favorite titles.
When the Epic Games Store first debuted, CEO Tim Sweeney highlighted its free game program as a key feature. Users can sign up, claim the free releases, and keep them indefinitely. While this strategy hasn't fully converted Steam loyalists on PC, it could prove to be a game-changer on mobile platforms.
Let's talk about Knights of the Old Republic. Set thousands of years before the familiar events of the Star Wars films and series, you step into the shoes of a lone Jedi striving to stop the Sith's sinister plans. With customizable lightsabers, force powers, and a diverse array of companions, it's no wonder this game has garnered such a dedicated following.
This isn't the first time Knights of the Old Republic has made its way to mobile devices, with the last release happening over a decade ago. It will be fascinating to see if the new Epic Games Store version has undergone any enhancements. Regardless, offering a critically acclaimed Bioware duology for free is a powerful move to boost the Epic Games Store's appeal.
The big question now is whether this will attract more players to the platform. In the meantime, if you're looking for something shorter and more digestible, why not check out our list of the top five new mobile games to try this week?
