Both of the above-mentioned games will be available from October 19 to October 26, 2023. These two games will replace the currently free titles available on the Epic Games Store, including Blazing Sails and Q.U.B.E. Ultimate Bundle. The latter is a collection of three first-person puzzle games: Q.U.B.E., Q.U.B.E. Director’s Cut, and Q.U.B.E 2: Deluxe Edition. The games are inspired by Portal and challenge players to manipulate the environment using special gloves that can interact with coloured blocks.
