During the Epic Games Store holiday promotion, there are always rumours, speculations and leaks about which titles will actually be made available for free. And resourceful Reddit users or leakers like “billbil-kun” usually succeed in correctly predicting the upcoming gifts in the shop. Once again, the leaker’s prediction proved to be correct today, after all he had named Encased as the next game in the 15-day campaign on Dealabs.com. Since 5 p.m. German time you can download this from the Epic Games Store.
Was ist Encased?
Encased is an isometric sci-fi RPG that was released in 2019. In terms of setting, the title is set in an alternate reality during the 70’s. In it, humanity has encountered a mysterious dome in the middle of a desert that now needs to be explored. A catastrophe, the “Incident”, is the focus of the plot.
All in all, the title of the studio Dark Crystal Games can advertise on platforms like Metacritic with solid average ratings. While the game’s meta score is 73 out of 100 possible points, the user score is 7.4 out of 10 possible points. You have until Christmas Eve at 5 p.m. to secure the title in the store. The three add-ons of the game, which are also offered in the store, are not included.
