The Epic Games Store is offering a stellar freebie: BioWare's acclaimed Knights of the Old Republic duology! This critically-acclaimed Star Wars RPG is now available for free on mobile via the Epic Games Store.
From the moment the Epic Games Store launched, one of its key selling points was its free game program. Users could claim free titles and keep them permanently. While this hasn't fully converted PC gamers from Steam, its potential impact on the mobile market remains to be seen.
Knights of the Old Republic, set millennia before the familiar Star Wars saga, casts you as a Jedi battling the Sith. Customize your lightsaber, master Force powers, and forge bonds with unique companions in this beloved classic.
Use the force, Luke!
This isn't the first mobile port of Knights of the Old Republic, but this Epic Games Store release offers a fresh opportunity to experience this classic. Regardless of any potential improvements, a free, critically-acclaimed BioWare duology is a powerful incentive for the Epic Games Store's free game program.
Whether this will significantly boost the platform's user base remains to be seen.
