Epic Games Store free games program goes weekly - Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist arrive

The Epic Games Store's mobile app, recently launched on iOS, is now offering a weekly free games program. The inaugural release features Super Meat Boy Forever Mobile and Eastern Exorcist. New games will arrive every Thursday.

Super Meat Boy Forever, a highly anticipated sequel, revitalizes the hardcore platformer genre. Players control Meat Boy as he embarks on a perilous journey with Bandage Girl to rescue their child, Nugget, from the clutches of Dr. Fetus. Be warned: expect a challenging experience.

Eastern Exorcist, a visually stunning side-scrolling action RPG, transports players to a captivating world inspired by Japanese and Chinese mythology. As the exorcist, you'll battle monsters, evil spirits, and wield sorcery across breathtaking landscapes.

Epic Games' decision to offer weekly free games on mobile reflects the fast-paced nature of the mobile gaming market. This strategy aims to attract attention in a landscape where users quickly move on to new releases.

While the long-term success of this model remains to be seen, the immediate offering is undeniably appealing. Both Super Meat Boy Forever, a solid sequel to a beloved franchise, and the visually impressive Eastern Exorcist, provide compelling reasons to download the Epic Games Store app.
