Dino Horde Shooter ‘Second Extinction’ Available For Free Via The Epic Games Store

Published

on

While games like Deathground and Instinction probably won’t arrive until next year at the earliest, if you’re looking to get in on blowing away dinosaurs, Systemic Reaction’s Second Extinction is the latest free game available on the Epic Game Store for the next 24 hours.

The game is still in Early Access on the EGS and Steam, which is further incentive for you to snag it before the price goes up once it exits Early Access. Remember, Second Extinction is only available for free until December 22nd at 10:59am, so grab it now.

If you’re unfamiliar with the game, Second Extinction has dinosaurs taking over the Earth, while humans have retreated to space. Naturally, you and your squad have returned to Earth, launching a war against the dinosaurs. You can take on the hordes of mutated dinosaurs with up to two friends. In fact, it’s strongly recommended that you team up, as you’re setting yourself up to be dino chow if you go at it alone.

Publisher Gamera Games and developer Pollard Studio have teamed with Wired Productions (the folks who brought us Martha is Dead) to release the psychological horror game KARMA: The Dark World. The game, which has been in development since 2021, is currently slated for a release on PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. No release date has been announced.

In a press release, Wired Productions managing director Leo Zullo stated that they saw something special with KARMA: The Dark World. “It evokes, emotions and provokes players to think, feel and question everything. Pollard Studio wanted to create an intense cinematic experience, and I’m delighted we’re able to work so closely with them. It’s truly an exciting game that I can’t wait to reveal more about.”

Described as a first-person cinematic psychological thriller set in a dystopian world, KARMA: The Dark World takes place in East Germany, 1984. Players take on the role of Daniel McGovern, a Roam Agent for the omnipresent Leviathan Corporation’s Thought Bureau. You have been brought in to investigate actions that have happened in a very specific moment in time. To do so, Daniel infiltrates the memories of suspects to retrace their steps and piece together his investigations. In doing so, Daniel uncovers fragmented memories of his own lurking within the shadows.

As a Roam investigation officer, you work at night, completing the tasks given by the corporation in complete stealth. Your identity as a Roam Agent is intimidating, giving you leverage to gain entry. Using a combination of investigative tools and their own intellect, players must solve puzzles in order to unravel the truth. Diving into peoples’ minds will have you encountering hallucinations and randomly-changing environments. You have to pay attention to the time and space of your location, as well as observe and spot key personnel and events in order to find your way.
