  • Darksiders III by Gunfire Games and THQ Nordic (available Dec. 14)
  • Hades by Supergiant Games (now available)
  • Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek by tinyBuild (now available)

    @jakub, um, what? Since when a new platform launches with hundreds of games? Steam started with just Counter Strike. GOG started with a limited amount of Ubisoft games, and Witcher diology. Discord did not hesitate about that as well.
    They did get an attention for sure at least by releasing Journey on PC (!!) after all these years. For free in 2 weeks (!!!). They have a base with UE4 devs and Fortnite players at least. others will come soon.

    In all honesty, while I absolutely support the idea of being steam competition, the launch of the epic store in it's current form seem like a total misunderstanding. The lineup of games is so small that it's literally invisible so during it's first days this store is already irrelevant. I think everyone was expecting hundreds of at least 2017-2018 titles available from the launch so it's kinda disappointing and misleading. They've had a momentum and they haven't used it. From now on it's gonna be hard to attract people that already feel baffled.
