The Epic Games Store has launched its latest promotion, allowing gamers to snag two excellent titles for free: the cooperative zombie shooter World War Z: Aftermath and the indie adventure game Garden Story. Starting from 7 PM Moscow time on February 20, players can add these games to their library at no cost, with both titles available to users from various regions, including Russia.
The first title, World War Z: Aftermath, is developed by the St. Petersburg studio Saber Interactive. This high-octane shooter challenges teams of four players to fend off massive hordes of the undead, utilizing a vast arsenal of weapons to survive. Set against the backdrop of multiple global cities dealing with the fallout of a zombie apocalypse, the game offers players the opportunity to experience epic story missions against the undead.
The second title, Garden Story, is equally charming, transporting players to a vibrant world populated by anthropomorphic fruits. Through exploration and community management, players assume the role of Concord, tasked with protecting their idyllic home from this insidious threat known as Rot, which threatens to spread decay across their surroundings.
The promotion runs until February 27 at 6:59 PM Moscow time, after which the next free offering will be the adventure game Mages of Mystralia. Players are encouraged to secure their copies of both World War Z: Aftermath, usually priced at $39.99, and Garden Story, which retails for $16.99, during the giveaway window.
Helmed as one of the most popular cooperative zombie-shooters, World War Z: Aftermath builds upon the original World War Z game, which has captivated over 15 million gamers worldwide. Players can look forward to enhanced graphics, new story missions, and gameplay mechanics, including improved melee systems and expanded classes. Features such as first-person mode and dynamic swarms add to the frantic gameplay which has made this title incredibly popular.
Among its new missions, players can expect thrilling confrontations like taking back Vatican City and teaming up with survivors on the snowy Kamchatka Peninsula. According to the developers, players will face not just zombies, but also unique challenges, such as swarms of flesh-hungry rats wreaking havoc among teams trying to fend off attacks. The brand new melee combat overhaul promises even more explosive action—players can engage enemies with dual-wield weapons like the sickle and cleaver, or utilize unique moves and perks for fresh combat styles.
On the flip side, Garden Story encourages players to think beyond combat. The game invites players to restore their damaged community and engage with inhabitants, providing them with much-needed support, all against the stunning backdrop of its animated landscapes. With its combination of adventure gameplay and charming art style, Garden Story is positioned to appeal to players seeking less frantic gameplay, where nurturing the environment becomes just as important as combating decay.
This double giveaway marks yet another exciting chapter for the Epic Games Store as it continues to captivate audiences with diverse gaming experiences. Players can easily claim both titles over the course of the promotion, assuring they have plenty of engaging content to enjoy during this period.
Add both World War Z: Aftermath and Garden Story to your library before the offer ends on February 27 to take advantage of this fantastic opportunity!
