Epic is offering two free horror games for Halloween

Each week, the Epic Games Store gives away a title or two for free to all those with an Epic Games account. With Halloween nearly upon us, Epic is now offering two notable indie horrors including the visually-unique Bendy and the Ink Machine.

Available to add to your library from today at 3pm UK time (until the 6th of October), this week’s free Epic Games Store offerings include the following:

  • Bendy and the Ink Machine
  • Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit

The headliner for this week is Bendy and the Ink Machine – a first person puzzle action horror which offers a unique rubber-hose-style aesthetic similar to that of early Disney animations. Released back in 2018, the game received a somewhat mixed reception, with its style said to be far better than its substance. Still, the game is worth giving a go for the vibes if nothing else; especially for free.

Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit meanwhile is a retro-survival adventure spin-off of the popular horror series featuring a pixelated art style, puzzles – and like Bendy and the Ink Machine – brings evocations of times gone by.

Both Bendy and the Ink Machine and Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit are free to claim from today at 3pm (and as always will remain in your library forever should you claim them in time).

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
