Fallout 3 is free on PC for a week

Free games are always welcomed and are a recurrent theme in the news section of our website. There are quite a few shops and editors that offer games free of charge that you can add to your library and keep permanently. Epic Games Store is one of those and it rewards players with one or more free games on a weekly basis. The games are available on the platform for a whole week. After that, they are replaced with new ones. This week you can get one of the best action role-playing games of all time from the hands of Bethesda Softworks. We are talking about Fallout 3, of course.

With Fallout 3, Bethesda took a totally different approach to the long-lived franchise. The Fallout series had become popular due to its strategic turn-based gameplay, deep narrative, and post-apocalyptic setting. Fallout 3 is the first first-person role-playing game in the series and allows for a deeper level of immersion. The game follows one of the Vault 101 dwellers after years of being trapped underground to survive a nuclear disaster. The surrounding territories have turned into a dangerous and lawless wasteland where survivors and mutants struggle to survive. Fallout 3 would be followed by Fallout: New Vegas, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76 later, but it's the game that shaped the franchise into what it is today.

If you like role-playing games but prefer a different subgenre, Epic Games Store is also offering Evoland: Legendary Edition for free this week. It's a bundle that includes Evoland: A Short Story of Adventure Video Games Evolution & Evoland II: A Slight Case of Spacetime Continuum Disorder. These classic-style role-playing adventures feature stories full of humor and references to other classic games in the genre. They are a breath of fresh air for the fans of the genre, who will enjoy how their gameplay systems and graphics style evolves as you progress in the game.

You can claim both games starting this evening and until next Thursday just by login in with your account in the Epic Games Store launcher. Of course, you can also use our comparator to find the best video game deals too.
