Next Epic Games Store free game revealed ahead of schedule

Epic Games has just started giving away a new game of the week. As we discussed last Thursday, @billbil_kun revealed details of the giveaway before Epic Games could. In short, this game of cat and mouse has been going on for a while, with @billbil_kun correctly predicting Epic Games' moves each and every week.

This time, Epic Games has got ahead of @billbil_kun by already listing next week's game giveaway on its website. Specifically, the storefront will reduce Lego Builder's Journey to $0.00 on June 20th, a trailer for which we have embedded below. For reference, the Epic Games Store typically sells Lego Builder's Journey for $19.99, although it previously gave away the game in December 2022.

Please note that Lego Builder's Journey is a puzzle game rather than the sandbox alternative that is sold as Lego Worlds (curr. $21.80 for PS4 on Amazon). Also, Light Brick Studio reports that the game requires at least an AMD FX-8350 or Intel Core i5-3470 processor, 8 GB of RAM and an AMD Radeon R7 260X or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 GPU to run. With that being said, the title's recommended system requirements jump to an AMD Ryzen 5 1500X or Intel Core i7-6950X processor and an AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT or NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060 GPU, before factoring in its optional RTX mode.
