The Epic Games Store has unveiled its latest Free Game offerings for June 15, namely Guacamelee! and Guacamelee! 2, along with announcing the forthcoming title that will replace them on June 22: theHunter: Call of the Wild. Interested users can claim the two Guacamelee games until Thursday, June 22, at 10 am CT, after which they will be replaced.
The assortment of titles released on the Epic Games Store this month showcases remarkable diversity. Preceding the Guacamelee! games, fans had the opportunity to acquire Payday 2, a cooperative shooter centered around heists. In contrast, the Guacamelee games belong to the genre of 2D Metroidvania platformers with elements of brawling, while the Hunter: Call of the Wild caters to enthusiasts of hunting simulation games. It is worth noting that these titles have distinct appeal and may cater to a specific audience. Among them, the Hunter is arguably the most niche, but for those seeking a realistic hunting simulation game, it is available for claiming on the Epic Games Store.

However, according to OpenCritic, theHunter: Call of the Wild has received a Top Critic Average of 68, with only 28% of critics recommending it. It is important to acknowledge that the game has undergone significant changes since its initial release in 2017. These modifications encompass various aspects, such as alterations to the rack design, enhancements to the animal scoring systems, overhauls of weapons, and the inclusion of additional hunting reserves spanning across North America, Europe, Oceania, and other regions in the Hunter: Call of the Wild.

One notable advantage of the Epic Games Store lies in its transparent approach to announcing its weekly free titles.

Conversely, for those who find neither title enticing, they can mark June 22 on their calendars for potential future offerings.
