On this Thursday, Epic Games has unveiled a new selection of complimentary PC games for eager players to claim. Among this week’s offerings is a standout title that has captured the hearts of many: Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga. Available for free until 11 AM on December 12, this game promises an engaging experience without costing players a dime.
A Journey Through the Galaxy
Considered by many to be the pinnacle of Lego games and arguably the best Star Wars title to date, Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga allows players to traverse the narratives of all nine core Star Wars films. For those who may still harbor feelings about The Phantom Menace from its release 25 years ago, fear not; the game offers a flexible entry point into the saga.
With its signature Lego humor, the game delivers clever and often hilarious takes on iconic scenes from the films. Players can expect a treasure trove of Easter eggs that add layers of enjoyment to the gameplay. Visually, the game impresses with stunning graphics, making it a feast for the eyes as well as the mind. It’s no wonder that this title was among the favorites of 2022.
Challenges and Rewards
However, it is important to acknowledge that Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga is not without its flaws. Reports have surfaced regarding the demanding work conditions faced by developers at TT Games, which casts a shadow over the game’s development. Additionally, for those aiming for 100 percent completion, the collectathon elements may become tedious over time. Nevertheless, the game offers countless hours of family-friendly entertainment, all available at no cost.
In addition to the galactic adventure, Epic Games is also offering another free title this week: Bus Simulator 21 Next Stop. While it remains to be seen how this game fares in comparison, it presents yet another opportunity for players to explore new virtual experiences without spending a penny.
