You’ll also be able to grab Absolute Drift on February 18
In all of the hustle and bustle of yesterday’s news about theKingdom Heartsseries exclusively joining the Epic Games Store, I neglected to post a reminder about this week’s library padder:Halcyon 6.
If you’re in the mood for space-faring exploits, base management, and turn-based battling, you may want to snag a copy ofHalcyon 6: Starbase Commanderwhile it’s freeuntil June 27, 2025. It’s kind of a mishmash of big-brained 4X strategic thinking and a bit ofFTLspontaneity, to sum it up.
Case in point, factors like your officers’ traits, your base construction, and your diplomatic prowess will generate “story events (often with multiple choice outcomes) that can lead to combat, time-related applied bonuses/negatives, officer attribute changes, or any number of crazy in-game stories.”
Halcyon 6is the only freebie today, butnext week, we’re getting two:Rage 2andAbsolute Drift.
As prolific as it is, I feel weird for having never touched theRageseries – well, more so the first game, which felt like a big deal in 2011. There’s probably no going back, but it’s not too late for the sequel.
