Epic Games Store Offers Limbo Free This Week

- This Week's Epic Games Store Freebie Has Arrived

- Limbo Transports You to a Bleak Monochrome Realm

- Survive Deadly Traps, Obstacles and Hostile Creatures

The Epic Games Store's weekly giveaway tradition continues, featuring the acclaimed indie masterpiece Limbo as this week's free offering. For newcomers to the program, the Epic Games Store provides a complimentary mobile game every week for permanent download - part of the developer's strategy to attract new players.

What makes Limbo's shadowy puzzle adventure special? Like many indie platformers, its brilliance lies in deceptive simplicity. You control a young boy journeying through a perilous forest to find his missing sister.

Between you and your goal lurk endless hazards - treacherous terrain, hostile wildlife, and disturbingly, even other children - all seeking your brutal demise. Warning: this atmospheric platformer isn't for the faint of heart (or those with weak stomachs).

The Dark Poetry of Limbo Death in Limbo isn't pretty - expect disturbing (though mercifully silhouetted) scenes of crushing, snapping and gory endings. Yet beneath the darkness flows an unexpectedly poignant narrative exploring childhood vulnerability in an indifferent world.

Happy thoughts! But this cult classic's critical acclaim is well-earned. With zero cost to try it, this weekend presents the perfect opportunity to experience Limbo firsthand. Stay tuned - we'll always keep you updated about new EGS free game announcements.
