The action roguelike [REDACTED] is available for free on the Epic Games Store today

The 12th giveaway of the Epic Games Store's daily holiday promotion is back with a new title. The Orcs Must Die 3 promotion from the previous day has now been swapped for an opportunity to claim [REDACTED]. If you're a bit confused, that's actually the name of the game created by Striking Distance Studios.

Striking Distance Studios is known for developing The Callisto Protocol, a third-person horror game inspired by Dead Space. Although its release coincides with Hades 2, [REDACTED], set in the same universe as Callisto Protocol, is definitely worth your attention.

While [REDACTED] is based in the same world as the studio's horror game and takes place in the same prison, the gameplay here is notably different. This isometric perspective roguelike game has players controlling a guard as they fight off infected inmates and other dangers while trying to escape the turmoil. When you perish during a run, your next attempt involves battling your own undead self to reclaim the lost loot.

The game was released just a few months ago and has received significantly better reviews than the studio's initial offering in this universe.

Once again, you can download this game completely free of charge. It is not a limited demo or trial, but a full game available at no cost. No subscription fees or other obligations are required. The only condition is that you need an Epic Games Store account, which is free to create. Once you claim it, the game is yours to keep forever.

The giveaway for [REDACTED] is currently live on the Epic Games Store and will run until 8 am PT on December 31. Normally, the game is priced at $24.99 when not on sale. The next giveaway, which may feature a notable title, is set to begin tomorrow to wrap up the year.
