In June, the Epic Games Store is offering a diverse selection of titles, including the two free games for June 15, Guacamelee! and Guacamelee! 2, which will be available until Thursday, June 22 at 10 am CT. These 2D Metroidvania platformers with brawler elements offer a unique experience for fans of the genre. Additionally, theHunter: Call of the Wild, a hunting simulation game, will replace them on June 22. While each title may appeal to a limited number of fans, the variety ensures that there is something for everyone to enjoy on the EGS.
According to OpenCritic, theHunter: Call of the Wild received a Top Critic Average of 68, with only 28% of critics recommending it. However, since its initial release in 2017, the game has undergone significant changes such as the redesign of animal racks, improvements to the animal scoring system, weapon overhauls, and the addition of hunting reserves across North America, Europe, Oceania, and more in theHunter: Call of the Wild.
