Epic Games Store Offers Free Weekly Games
A new set of weekly freebies has arrived on the Epic Games Store, featuring the acclaimed visual novel Doki Doki Literature Club Plus! and rogue-like brawling RPG Lost Castle. The racing game Dakar Desert Racing will be available for free next week.
Doki Doki Literature Club Plus! is the enhanced and expanded version of developer Team Salvato’s renowned 2017 freeware visual novel. The game starts innocently as players take on the role of a new student who can romance the anime-styled members of the club. However, it takes a metatextual turn into darker territory. The game is not suitable for children or those who are easily disturbed.
For those not interested in Doki Doki, the freebie option is Lost Castle. Described as a “super cute, super hard action RPG with roguelike elements and randomized dungeons,” it supports four-player co-op and PvP gameplay locally and online.

At that point, Dakar Desert Racing will be available as the next free game, described as the “biggest off-road rally racing adventure ever developed” by publisher Saber Interactive.
