The Epic Games Store has recently expanded to iOS and is now taking its renowned free games program to a new level by making it a weekly event on mobile platforms! This exciting development means gamers on Android and iOS can now look forward to fresh, free titles every Thursday. Kicking off this initiative, the store has released the much-anticipated sequel, Super Meat Boy Forever, alongside the hauntingly atmospheric Eastern Exorcist.
Super Meat Boy Forever is a sequel that has revitalized the hardcore side-scrolling platformer genre. In this indie gem, you'll join Meat Boy and Bandage Girl on their mission to rescue their child, Nugget, from the nefarious Dr. Fetus. Be prepared for a challenging experience, as the game's notorious difficulty will test your skills to the limit.
On the other hand, Eastern Exorcist offers a more serious tone with its side-scrolling action RPG set in a world inspired by Japanese and Chinese folklore. As the protagonist, you'll navigate through beautifully crafted landscapes, battling monsters and evil spirits with your exorcist abilities.

By transitioning to a weekly free games program, Epic Games is making a bold move that reflects the fast-paced nature of the mobile gaming market. This strategy aims to keep players engaged and attract new users by constantly offering new and exciting games. While it's yet to be seen how this will affect the long-term popularity of the storefront, the immediate benefits are clear: free access to high-quality games like Super Meat Boy Forever and Eastern Exorcist.
