The seventeenth and final free game in the Epic Games Store’s 2023 Advent Calendar is available. Who will have the difficult task of completing this event? Here is your gift of the day.
The daily free games on the platform are almost over. After more than two consecutive weeks of celebration, the Epic Games Store is preparing to resume its usual pace and offer one title per week. Not to mention the grand finale, the ultimate gift of this annual event, which usually marks the occasion. What will it be this year? There was no need to wait until the afternoon to find out.
The newest free Christmas game on the Epic Games Store has been revealed early
All good things must come to an end sooner or later. “They didn’t care,” you can read here and there, but the fact is that EGS offered no fewer than 17 free games in two weeks. There have been repeats, titles have already been awarded in the past, but the fact is that the 2023 selection was particularly rich and well sorted, especially for those who missed some. So A Plague Tale Innocence was once again available to latecomers, but starting January 4th sharply at 5:00 p.m., the seventeenth and final free Epic Games Store game of this event was released. As with absolutely all of the other gifts in this Advent calendar, his name was revealed in advance and has now been confirmed.
Marvel’s Guardians of the Galaxy will therefore be available from January 4th to 11th, 2024, still on time at 5 p.m., according to an anonymous Chinese leaker’s list that has been flawless in recent days. The Eidos Montreal title has come a long way, having cooled down so much when it was first presented. However, the action game surprised everyone when it was released, especially the fans of this small group of thugs. The atmosphere of the comics and films is authentically implemented, it is full of well-delivered humor with funny punchlines, a well-delivered story and what can we say about the OST?
Back to normal
A very good free game that gives last place to this event in the Epic Games Store, but which can suffer from its gameplay with sometimes somewhat chaotic combat and an overly pronounced illusion of choice. Nevertheless, it remains a very nice gift. After that it goes back to normal with the usual weekly schedule. We should expect the return of small, often little-known productions like the ones the platform likes so much, and it will start with Sail Forth, a small independent production in which you command a fleet of customizable ships on an ancestral ocean. Exploration and pirate battles await in this next Epic Games Store free game, available January 11-18, 2024.
