Deal | Epic Games Store Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy freebie opens 2024 with a bang

The Epic Games Store has earned itself a reputation for its weekly free games, and while many of the giveaways are ageing titles or low-cost indie affairs, every now and again, a smash hit pops up. This is the case with the Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy giveaway.

In a time when Marvel superhero games were shrouded in disappointment, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy launched to heaped praise from critics and gamers alike. Instead of an open world and live service model, the likes of which failed the Marvel's Avengers game before it, Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is a linear story-focussed game.

Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy is at its heart a chaotic single-player action-adventure game with punchy combat and a spot of collectible hunting mixed in. When it released, Guardians of the Galaxy received positive reviews, primarily for its pacing, strong character performances and writing, and an authentic-feeling world.
