Of course, until July 20, fans will be able to claimTrain Valley 2on the Epic Games Store. It’s rather niche given fans must like trains and simulation games to enjoy it, but those fans are in for a real treat regardless. Its combination of trains, tycoon-style gameplay, and puzzle solving is as solid as it comes, while the game is also complete with achievements, DLC add-ons, and more. And as always, if fans are not excited about it, they just have to wait a week for it to rotate out.
The sheer variety on display by EGS cannot be ignored either.Grimeis a Metroidvania Soulslike,Train Valley 2is a train tycoon game,Murder by Numbersis a murder mystery, andThe Elder Scrolls Onlineis a huge MMO for a big AAA franchise. It seems safe to say the past few weeks has had a little bit of something for everyone.
