Epic Games Store Weekly Free Games: Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist Now Available

The Epic Games Store has taken a significant step by introducing its free games program to mobile platforms, now offering new releases every week. This exciting development is already in effect, with the latest free titles being the highly anticipated Super Meat Boy Forever Mobile and the atmospheric side-scroller Eastern Exorcist, both available for immediate download on Android and iOS.

Super Meat Boy Forever needs little introduction to fans of the genre. This indie darling revitalized the hardcore side-scrolling platformer scene, thrusting players into the shoes of Meat Boy on a perilous journey to rescue his child, Nugget, from the clutches of the nefarious Dr. Fetus. Prepare for a challenging adventure where death is a frequent companion.

On a more serious note, Eastern Exorcist invites players into a richly crafted world inspired by Japanese and Chinese folklore, filled with monsters, malevolent spirits, and mystical sorcery. As the titular exorcist, your mission is to purge the land of evil while traversing breathtaking landscapes.

Epic Games' decision to transition its free games program to a weekly format on mobile is a testament to the dynamic nature of the mobile gaming market. By offering new games every Thursday, Epic aims to capture the attention of players who quickly move on to the next big thing. While it remains to be seen how this strategy will fare in the long run, the immediate allure of free high-quality games like Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist is undeniable.

As much as we can speculate on the future success of Epic's mobile storefront, the joy of accessing free games, especially those from beloved series and visually stunning new titles, cannot be overstated.
