Epic Games Store has launched its “mega-sale” for 2022, promising a new free game every week for four weeks along with discounts on display. The first of these freebies is an extremely successful shooter from Gearbox Borderlands 3 and available until May 26.
To get yourself a copy of this triple A title, you need to have an Epic Games account and, using the store’s desktop client, “purchase” the game (for $ 0 / £ 0) to add it to your account. Now it’s yours to save!
As the main competitor of the online computer game store Steam, Epic Games Store appeared on the scene in late 2018 and made a name for itself with its frequent free gifts – what he intends to continue throughout 2022.
In many cases, these free raffles were far from clear or small titles, including major games such as Prey, Control and Total War: Warhammer, as well as popular indie titles such as Celeste, Hyper Light Drifter, Limbo and Super Meat. The boy.
All of this means you should grab an account and keep up with these free offers, because even if you don’t have a computer that can now run some of these games, if you get them, you’ll have plenty of games library ready to go.
Is Borderlands $ 3 worth $ 0?
Obviously, yes. More importantly, is it worth your time? However, yes. We gave up the game four stars in our reviewpraising his vast arsenal of weapons and deep RPG systems, but noted that his comedy attempts were not particularly ridiculous.
Personally, I first played in Borderlands 3 a few months ago (before Elden’s Ring dominated all my free time), and it performed very well for me a special role: thoughtless action. For those looking for chaotic, swift first-person shots to quickly jump to them, take this game.
If you want, there is depth. As with every Borderlands game to date, you choose a class to start with and from there invest points in a variety of skill trees, as well as equip shields and items that harmonize with your abilities. This can change the course of the game quite dramatically, moving from a more long-range fighter to a brawler.
Losing every entry in the series, we should praise the improvement in quality of life that has accumulated over the decade since the release of the first Borderlands title – the movement is smooth, the action relentless, and each weapon feels satisfying (even a cheap beginner kit).
That said, the enjoyment of the game depends heavily on your ability to block her narrative as well as most of the dialogue. Borderlands 3 retains the vulgar (and childish) humor of the series, but has far fewer redemption moments than its predecessors both in history and in jokes.
Borderlands 3 for PC and Mac is now free in the Epic Games Store until May 26th.
