The next free Epic Games Store title has been confirmed

The Epic Games Store’s next free title has been announced.

Grime will be free to claim from Epic’s PC marketplace from July 6-13.

According to its store listing, “Grime is a fast, unforgiving action-adventure RPG in which you crush your foes with living weapons that mutate form and function, and then consume their remains with a black hole to strengthen your vessel as you break apart a world of anatomical intrigue.”

Developed by Clover Bite and published by Akupara Games, Grime was released in August 2021 and the PC version has a score of 81 on Metacritic.

Grime will replace The Dungeon Of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet Of Chaos, which is now free to claim until July 6.

The Epic Games Store gave away 99 free titles last year (up from 89 in 2021). These games had a combined worth of $2,240 and users claimed over 700 million free titles (down from 765 million in 2021), according to Epic.

The company recently suggested players should expect to see further high-profile Epic Games Store exclusives announced in the future.

Epic launched Fortnite Chapter 4 Season 3: Wilds this month.
