'Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons' Free On Epic Games Store, 'Cris Tales' Next Week

by Rainier on Feb. 17, 2022 @ 9:14 a.m. PST

For the next week, the Epic Games Store is offering one title for free: Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons.

Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons is a cinematic, emotionally charged action game where two sons set out on a journey to find the Water of Life to cure their ailing father and can only rely on one another to survive.

A wholly immersive experience, Brothers is an epic story told without words, set in an ever changing world, ranging from craggy mountain peaks to the musty depths of underground caverns. This unique mythical world, which draws inspiration from Nordic cultures and archaeology, is in a state of transition between the old and the new ways. Throughout their expedition they come to rely on one another to survive.  One must be strong when the other is weak, one must be brave, when the other is fearful, supporting each other throughout their voyage.

Control both brothers at once as you experience co-op play in single-player mode. Solve puzzles, explore the locations and fight boss battles, controlling one brother with each thumbstick.

Once Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons, the current free game on the Epic Games Store, has run its course, it will be up to Cris Tales, which will be gratis starting February 24 until March 3, 2022.

Cris Tales

Cris Tales is a lush RPG following a heroine's quest through past and future visions of her world to curb a merciless Empress' rule and prevent a cataclysm.

Discover a unique combination of branching stories, innovative combat, and classic RPG gameplay in Cris Tales’ exciting and unforgettable exploration of how our actions echo through time. Join the newly awakened Time Mage, Crisbell, and her fantastical companions in a fantasy world facing a grim future. The powerful Time Empress and her forces threaten to bring about a cataclysm tearing apart Crystallis and the other four Kingdoms of the region.

To stop the Time Empress and rewrite the future of the land, you will embark on a harrowing journey across the kingdoms, meeting and recruiting powerful allies to aid in the fight. Master their abilities and Crisbell’s unique Time Magic to overcome mighty foes: send them into the past to face their weaker, younger selves; to the future where they’ve succumbed to all the damage of a poison applied in the present; or create your own strategies in this one-of-a-kind combat system. Your choices in this world will have far-reaching consequences for everyone you meet. Peer into the past, act in the present, and watch as your choices dynamically change the future -- all on one screen as you play!
