Epic Games is giving away Rage 2 free for everyone, via their digital video game storefront and hopeful Steam rival, Epic Games Store.
Steam has as close to a monopoly as you can get on the digital distribution of games. Most gamers use the platform to buy and download their games. Not only that, but most players prefer to use Steam over other platforms, including but not limited to, the Epic Games Store.
Still, that hasn't stopped Epic Games from trying to put a dent on Steam's stranglehold on the PC market.
With that said, one of their main strategies has been to give away free games on a regular basis.
Already, we've seen the Epic Games Store play host to a number of free titles. This includes hit post-apocalyptic FPS title, Metro: Last Light, as well as For the King.
Making a game like Rage 2, as well as a lesser-known title like Absolute Drift, available should give users given more of a reason to switch platforms if only temporarily. This is especially with Epic Games securing exclusivity of franchises such as Kingdom Hearts in their first-ever PC release.
