The Epic Games Store has updated its free game program with a new $19.99 title. Available throughout the rest of the month and until early February, Undying is principally a survivor game set in a zombie apocalypse.

The Epic Games Store is having a rather busy end to the month, having finally opened its free mobile game giveaway program. Initially, the storefront discounted Behind the Frame: The Finest Scenery to $0.00 in a deal that will last until February 20. Behind the Frame: The Finest Scenery was quickly followed up with an equivalent offer for Bloons TD 6, which is also free for another three weeks or so.

While these games can only be picked up on Android or iOS, Epic Games has now dropped Undying from $19.99 to $0.00 on its regular game giveaway program. Please note that the storefront's new free game offer can only be redeemed on Windows, even though a Nintendo Switch (curr. $279.99 on Amazon) release exists, too. For reference, the Windows release calls for at least 4 GB of RAM to run at minimum graphics settings, as well as hardware like an Intel Core i3-3220 processor and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 650 GPU.

Set during a zombie apocalypse, Undying averages 74/100 from critics on Metacritic and 80/10 on Opencritic. By contrast, user reviews average 67/100 for the same release on MetacriticUndying will be free to add to your Epic Games library from today at 16:00 UTC until 15:59 UTC on February 6. Please see the game's store listing for more details.
