[UPDATE: The Epic Games Store has officially revealed the two games available for July 15. One of them isObduction, meaning the leak was indeed accurate. The other isOffworld Trading Company. Original story follows.]
Unless theEpic Games Storeis up to its mystery game antics, those who use its platform receive a couple of free games every Thursday with the games for the following week revealed at the same time. For example, while players have until 10am CT tomorrow to claim this week’sfree game,The Spectrum Retreat, they already know what to expect for tomorrow.
Beginning at 10am CT tomorrow, players will be able to pick upBridge Constructor: The Walking DeadandIroncastfor free. One thing the store does well is focus on games that are lesser known, as the former is a puzzle game based on getting vehicles to safety during the zombie apocalypse, while the latter is a turn-based mech gamer. They will be available from July 8 to July 15, with the game, or games, for July 15 expected to be revealed tomorrow. However, it seems to have leaked online ahead of time.

According to German website Mydealz, at least one of the free games for July 15 isMystdeveloper’sObduction. As with all rumors and leaks, this should be taken for a grain of salt, but the details revealed do seem to line up. Mydealz lists the game for 5pm CEST, which is 10am CT. It lists it available as free for one week, but players don’t need to download it to keep it permanently. Either way, EGS users will know for sure tomorrow, as the company will confirm or invalidate this leak.
For those who are unaware, Obduction is an adventure game by Cyan Worlds, with it serving as a spiritual successor toits previous games,Mystand Riven. In it, players find themselves transported to strange alien worlds where they must figure out a variety of puzzles to get home. Players will have to interact with the world(s) around them to do so, with many objects found-in game being fully examinable. Overall, the game has been deemed favorable by critics, with aggregate scores typically in the mid-to-high 70s.
It’s worth mentioning that theEpic Games Storemay not be the leakiest platform in the gaming industry, but various games have been accurately leaked ahead of their addition before. As such, it wouldn’t be surprising to seeObductionconfirmed as one of the July 15 games, as the leak is solid enough and the game itself fits into the sort of games EGS typically offers.
Obductionis rumored to be one ofEpic Games Store’s free games for July 15.
