Per its typical pattern, theEpic Games Storereleases its new free games today,TuncheandThe Silent Age, which will be available until March 6. At that time, theEpic Games Store will replace the two gameswithDying Light: Enhanced EditionandBlazing Sails.
TheEpic Games Storegenerally specializes in releasing solid indie gems that fans may have not heard of before.Blazing Sailswears this hat, but notDying Light. It does release larger AAA games from time to time, especially with its mystery game bonuses and the like. It’s a rare treat, but for those who haven’t delved into theDying Lightfranchise before, next week would be a great time to pick it up (or at least to get a PC copy too).

First up though isTunche, a hand-drawn co-op action title with roguelike elements. Players are seeking to restore peace to the Amazon rainforest and do as one of five characters/classes: Rumi (sorceress), Pancho (musician), Qaru (bird boy), Nayra (warrior), and Hat Kid. The Silent Age, meanwhile, is a point-and-click adventure game where players must discover why humanity has disappeared and save it from extinction. These games will be available until March 6 at 10 am CT, rotating out at that time forDying Light.InDying Light, players enter the quarantine zone of Harran as Kyle Crane in search of data that could potentially produce a cure for the zombie virus that has contaminated the city.
The Enhanced Edition comes with plenty of extra goodies too, including theDying Light: The Followingexpansion. This adds a new open-world area with modifiable buggies, as players deal with the Children of the Sun cult. It also includes all the content from the season pass, multiplayer game modes, additional missions and items, and more. Joining it is Blazing Sails, a game where players create their own pirate and ship, and take them into PvP. With a variety of game modes (including Treasure Hunt and Battle Royale), maps, weapons, and more. Although much smaller, it may scratch a similar itch toSea of Thievesor fill the void left bySkull and Bones(although it’s cartoony).
