Fallout Classic Games Available for Free on Epic Games Store
2 min read
Fallout, a beloved franchise in the gaming world, has seen a resurgence of interest with the recent announcement that several classic games in the series will be available for free on the Epic Games Store. These games, including Fallout, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel, will be accessible to anyone with an Epic Games account from February 22 to 29.
The original Fallout, released in 1997, laid the groundwork for the franchise’s signature dark-and-gritty atmosphere, flexible character-creation and perk system, and open-world freedom. Players explored a wasteland littered with wild and wacky characters and engaged in turn-based role-playing combat to defeat all manner of mutants.
Fallout 2, the most beloved of the pre-Bethesda games, offered a similar game to the original but improved systems across the board. With its great storyline, huge game world, and well-written scripts, Fallout 2 gave players many hours of absorbing gameplay.
Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel took the beloved world of Fallout and applied tactical, squad-based combat. The game did just about everything right, with the only issue being that there was too much of it.
These classic games offer a unique experience that sets them apart from the more recent entries in the franchise. They provide a deeper role-playing experience, with a focus on exploration, character development, and strategic combat.
For those who have never experienced the original Fallout games, this is an excellent opportunity to explore the world that started it all. And for those who have played them before, it’s a chance to revisit old favorites and relive the memories.
The availability of these classic games on the Epic Games Store is a welcome surprise for fans of the Fallout franchise. It’s a reminder of the rich history and legacy of this beloved series, and a testament to the enduring appeal of these classic games.
So, mark your calendars for February 22, and get ready to explore the wasteland once again. These games may be free, but the memories and experiences they provide are priceless.
