The Epic Games Store announces 3 free games for next week

Each week, the Epic Games Store offers users of its platform a number of free games to download and keep forever. Though this week only sees one small title on offer, the following week will bring with it 3 titles, including Killing Floor 2. Until then, users of the store can get their hands on the puzzle-platformer ‘Hue’.

Hue is described as “a vibrant, award-winning puzzle-adventure, where you alter the world by changing its background colour,” as “you explore a dangerous grey land, unearthing coloured fragments on a journey to find your missing mother.”

The game features a truly unique aesthetic, where the silhouetted backgrounds lay in stark contrast to the bright colours that you can control and “as obstacles match the background, they disappear, creating new and exciting puzzles – full of peril, mystery… and colours unseen.”

Hue is available to purchase and download for free from now until the 9th of July at 4pm, at which point it will be replaced by ‘Lifeless Planet’ – a third person action adventure featuring “an old-school sci-fi story and spectacular environments”; the Escapists 2 – the sequel to the much-loved strategy prison-escape title; and Killing Floor 2 – the first-person co-op zombie shooter. Hue replaces last week’s offerings of Stranger Things 3: The Game and AER: Memories of Old.

KitGuru says: What do you think of this week’s offering? Are you looking forward to next week’s titles? What’s your favourite puzzle-platformer this generation? Let us know down below.

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.
