The Epic Games Store has launched its newest free game promotion
Bioware's Legendary Knights of the Old Republic Duology Now Free
Bioware remains a polarizing developer, but their Star Wars RPGs are near-universally praised. Fans who missed these landmark titles can now claim both Knights of the Old Republic games at no cost through Epic's mobile platform.
Epic Games founder Tim Sweeney originally pitched the store's free game initiative as a key differentiator. While it hasn't significantly dented Steam's PC dominance, this strategy might prove more effective on mobile platforms.
A Timeless Star Wars Adventure
Set thousands of years before the Skywalker saga, these RPGs cast players as a Jedi navigating a galaxy threatened by Sith forces. The games feature deep customization options including lightsaber crafting, Force abilities, and memorable companion characters - explaining their enduring popularity.
While this isn't KOTOR's first mobile release (the original port launched in 2013), this promotional giveaway presents a fresh opportunity for new audiences to experience these classics. Regardless of any technical improvements, these acclaimed RPGs represent a major addition to Epic's free offerings.
Whether this will drive significant user adoption remains to be seen. For players seeking more current mobile experiences, we recommend checking out our weekly roundup of notable new releases.
