In Sound Mind will be next week’s free Epic Games Store title
It will replace Cities Skylines
Next week’s free Epic Games Store title will be In Sound Mind.
From March 17-24, the first-person psychological horror game will be available as a free download from Epic’s PC marketplace.
In Sound Mind will replace Cities Skylines, which normally costs £22.99 but is currently free to download until March 17.
The Epic Games Store gave away 89 free titles last year (down from 103 in 2020), with a combined worth of $2,120.
According to Epic, users claimed over 765 million free games in 2021. 76 free games broke their peak concurrent user records on PC, with an average of 13 times their all-time records, it claimed in January.
The Epic Game Store’s user base reached 194 million last year, up from 160 million a year earlier, the company said.
It was announced last Wednesday that Epic Games has acquired internet music company Bandcamp.
In November, Epic also acquired Rock Band and Dance Central creator Harmonix, which said it planned to “work with Epic to create musical journeys and gameplay for Fortnite”.
Epic recently filed a trademark for the ‘Epic Games Megaverse’, which could be an umbrella term for Epic’s vision for the metaverse.
