Summary

  • The free games available on Epic Games Store from March 14-21 are Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and The Bridge.
  • The current EGS free game is Astro Duel 2, available until March 14.

From March 14 to March 21, Epic Games Store users will have the chance to claim Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and The Bridge for their digital libraries. Epic Games Store users are treated to new free games on a weekly basis, though the quantity of free games tends to differ. Sometimes, Epic Games Store users get two free games per week, like what's happening next Thursday, but other times, EGS users are only treated to one free game.

That's the case with the current Epic Games Store free game, Astro Duel 2. A rare day one free game for the Epic Games Store, Astro Duel 2 mixes platforming combat with top-down spaceship action and offers both PvP and co-op modes. Astro Duel 2 is free on the Epic Games Store from now until Thursday, March 14 at 10:00am CST, at which point it will be replaced by next week's free game offerings.

The Epic Games Store free games from March 14 to March 21 are Deus Ex: Mankind Divided and The Bridge. Deus Ex: Mankind Divided is an action-RPG developed by Eidos Montreal and published by Square Enix in 2016. While it didn't earn quite as positive of a reception as its predecessor, Deus Ex: Mankind Divided still earned mostly positive reviews at the time of its release, and its inclusion as an Epic Games Store free game is notable since it's rare for the launcher to give away AAA titles. The Bridge, meanwhile, is a 2D puzzle game that first released in 2013 to mixed reviews from critics, though users had a more positive reaction to the game, with it earning a "Very Positive" rating on Steam.

  • Astro Duel 2 (March 7 - March 14)
  • Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (March 14 - March 21)
  • The Bridge (March 14 - March 21)

Those that have yet to play Deus Ex: Mankind Divided may first want to check out its immediate predecessor, Deus Ex: Human Revolution. Both games were well-received by Deus Ex fans, and many have been patiently waiting for another installment in the Deus Ex universe. Unfortunately, it doesn't look as though a new Deus Ex game will be hitting store shelves at any point in the near future.

Following layoffs at Eidos Montreal, recent reports have indicated that a new Deus Ex game was canceled by Embracer Group. Now, it's entirely possible that Deus Ex could still make a comeback at some point down the line, but it's likely that the franchise will remain dormant for years, if it ever returns at all. Perhaps Deus Ex: Mankind Divided being given away fro free through the Epic Games Store will revive interest in the series, but that remains to be seen.
