The Epic Games Store has further strengthened its strategy of offering free games. The current free titles, Songs of Conquest and Rogue Waters, are available until June 11, while the next confirmed games, The Ouroboros King and Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks, further boost the store’s appeal. This shows that Epic Games is not only focused on growing its user base, but also on strengthening the loyalty of existing users. However, the rumors about Citizen Sleeper and Robobeat have not been confirmed, which raises questions about the reliability of this information.
