The rather impressive game "A Plague Tale : Innocence" is available for free this week on the epic store.
There's another one "Minit" also available.

??? A $40 game for free?

Is it temporary, or is Epic Games hoping to get some more traffic?

The weekly freebies of the epic store are available to claim for free only for a week, after that they go back to notfree, and other games will become free to claim for a week.

But once you claimed a freebie like that on the epic store , it's yours "forever" (well similarly to steam i mean, meaning it's not completely yours due to DRM and who know what happens really if epic/steam disappear regardless of their promises).

Epic gives away lots of expensive games, they been doing that for a while now.

"Void Bastards" and "Yoka-Laylee" are the weekly freebie on the Epic Store
Void Bastard is surprisingly (as i never heard about it and the screenshots seemed rather bland) very good though probably a bit repetitive after a while, a mix of FPS, roguelike and space ships exploration.
There's some humor too and lots of challenge, so far i have a lot of fun.

The other game i can't comment as i don't play , but according to wikipedia i may trigger some people interest :

Developed by Playtonic Games, a group of former key personnel from Rare, Yooka-Laylee is a spiritual successor to the Banjo-Kazooie series released for the Nintendo 64 nearly 20 years prior.

This week the freebies on the epic store are
Saint Row the Third Remastered , from what i see it's some giant visual upgrade of the old Saint Row 3 and has all the old dlc already bundled inside
Automachef that is a factorio kind of game, but you make automated kitchen and restaurants apparently

The SR3 remaster was panned pretty bad for how it actually plays - it's prettier, but the gameplay and AI performance was fairly frequently criticized as being as bad or worse than the original, with audio bugs as well. Which is disappointing, since SR3 was a lot of fun and I'd love to play it prettied up.

My only experience with that serie of game was with Saint Row 2 on PC when it was given for free by gog at some point.
Unfortunately the PC version was one of the most horribly badly optimised piece of game i ever tried that needed a 3rd party mod (named " gentlemen of the row" ) to turn from "unplayable" to at least "barely playable".
Never looked into that serie after that.

For the sad anecdote, the genius modder that had made the mentionned mod that liked so much the game he was wanting to make it completely playable was hired at some point and was working on an actual SR2 official patch that should have been released this year, but very sadly the man passed away very recently, may he be at peace in a better place :

Ah yes, the insatiable lust of corn and rice, clearly two of the most erotic foods.

Shame that Nioh has the worst keyboard controls I've ever experienced, as my controller is broken. I can't even play it :(
