Epic Games Store Reveals Two More Free Games (VIDEO)
Going live every week, the Epic Games Store has introduced a steady lineup of completely free games, so far including everything from indies like Overcooked to more high-profile fare such as Alan Wake. As we find ourselves at the forefront of another week, Epic Games has released a new set of freebies, now allowing players to snag The End is Nigh and ABZÛ for a limited time.
Touting over 600 levels and 12 “explorable chapters,” The End Is Nigh is described as a “sprawling adventure platformer” following a pixelated blob named Ash as he sets out on an “epic quest” across a mutated, post-apocalyptic world. Along the way, numerous obstacles are encountered ranging from tricky landscapes to “an endless swarm of decaying, mutant animal-like creatures”–likely spelling doom for anyone but semi-hardened platforming fans.
600+ levels! 12+ explorable chapters! Lots of death… and dying! ?

On the other hand, ABZÛ steps into some decidedly more vibrant territory, taking players on a wondrous and colorful journey into various creature-inhabited zones of the ocean. “Perform fluid acrobatics as the Diver using graceful swimming controls. Discover hundreds of unique species based on real creatures and form a powerful connection with the abundant sea life.,” reads the game’s description. “Descend into the heart of the ocean where ancient secrets lie forgotten. But beware, dangers lurk in the depths.”
