Epic Games has updated its list of free games and added an unannounced title as well. Both Figment and Tormentor x Punisher are titles previously announced as free games, but Epic Games has just added World War Z to the list as well. Additionally, a new update to the game adds limited cross-play for Xbox One and PC for PVE modes.
PC players will get the game free and will have a chance to play with Xbox One players now and PlayStation players in the near future. World War Z is also available through the Xbox Game Pass, which gives access to hundreds of game titles.
The co-op shooter gives players lots of different missions and a new horde mode, so being free on both cross-play platforms may bring in more players. Many players are hoping that cross-play extends to the PlayStation 4, but is only listed as coming soon with no release date announced.
World War Z has been available on the Epic Games Store since its release and had massive success in the developer's digital store. World War Z sold 1 million copies the first week and 700,000 of those copies were sold on the Epic Games Store. Since the game experienced the most success in the digital store and is now free, it could point to the title not selling anymore, or the possibility of a World War Z sequel.
World War Z is available for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Cross-play is currently available for only PC and Xbox One.
