- Epic Games Store unveils its latest free game offering
- Download Bioware's celebrated Knights of the Old Republic duology at no cost
- Will this bold move attract players to the Epic Games Store mobile platform?
Bioware, a studio with a polarizing reputation, has one undisputed triumph: its work on the Star Wars universe. If you’ve yet to experience the iconic Knights of the Old Republic, now’s your chance—both the original and its sequel are available for free on the Epic Games Store for mobile!
When the Epic Games Store launched, Tim Sweeney championed its free game program as a key feature. Users can claim titles at no cost and keep them permanently. While this hasn’t fully won over PC gamers loyal to Steam, it could prove a game-changer for mobile audiences.
Knights of the Old Republic, set thousands of years before the Star Wars films and series, casts you as a Jedi tasked with stopping the Sith. With customizable lightsabers, dynamic force powers, and a cast of memorable companions, it’s no surprise this game remains a fan favorite.
Wield the Force
Knights of the Old Republic isn’t new to mobile, having debuted over a decade ago. It remains to be seen if this Epic Games Store version brings enhancements, but regardless, offering Bioware’s acclaimed duology for free is a strong move to elevate the platform’s appeal.
The question now is whether this will draw in a wave of new players.
