Epic Games Store Now Offering "Unrailed!" For Free

For years the PC online digital storefront was dominated by mainly one particular company, Valve. Through the Steam marketplace, players could claim countless video game titles for their digital collection. Over the years, Steam evolved and included more features for players to enjoy, such as a means to connect with a community, craft wish lists, and unlock achievements. While other competitor services popped up, none offered too much incentive to go through their alternative storefront service.

That was until Epic Games Store joined the mix. With Epic having the funds to really back the storefront up, we saw several attempts to get players on their digital storefront client and away from Valve’s Steam marketplace. One of the means of doing this was through contract deals made with publishers and developers. So through Epic Games Store, the IP owners would have a better revenue cut.

This move was not that popular with PC players. Another means to get players on the client proved to be a massive hit. Each week, Epic Games Store offers players a free video game title. All a player needs to do is create a free Epic Games Store account and claim a copy that will be tied to your account and available to download whenever you’re interested in playing the game. We’ve seen Epic Games Store feature several games released in the past, everything from the Batman Arkham franchise to Grand Theft Auto V for free.

Best of all, you get to claim a copy throughout the entire week, so if you missed the initial day the game is unveiled for players to grab a copy, you would have up until the following week’s title offering.
