River City Girls 2 and I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream are free on the Epic Games Store

Epic Games Store has refreshed its weekly freebie lineup, swapping last week’s RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought for new titles: River City Girls 2 and I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream. Players can permanently add these games to their library anytime within the next seven days.

I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream, the first title in the pair, is a point‑and‑click adventure adapted from Harlan Ellison’s eponymous short story. Set in a bleak, post‑apocalyptic world, a rogue supercomputer has annihilated humanity, sparing only five individuals whom it keeps alive to torment. Players guide each survivor through scenarios that draw heavily on their backstories.

The game’s narrative unfolds with the tagline: “Buried deep within the earth, trapped in the bowels of an insane computer for the past 109 years.” It follows five distinct characters—Gorrister, the suicidal loner; Benny, the mutilated brute; Ellen, the hysterical phobic; Nimdok, the secretive sadist; and Ted, the cynical paranoid.

River City Girls 2, the follow‑up to the original beat‑em‑up, brings back Misako and Kyoko as they battle through a sprawling cityscape to topple the Sabu crime syndicate. The pixel‑art title boasts a larger roster of playable fighters, refined combo‑based combat, and support for cooperative multiplayer.

River City Girls 2 expands its world, offering fresh districts to roam, a wider array of destructible objects, and a dynamic day‑night cycle that reshapes the battlefield. The sequel embraces nonlinear progression, delivers voice‑over tailored to each character, and introduces a new, soaring soundtrack from Megan McDuffee, ensuring players stay locked in combat until every foe ends up yelling “BARF.”

Fans looking to snag the latest free content can take advantage of the River City Girls 2 and I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream giveaways on the Epic Games Store until July 9, giving PC players a full week to claim the offer before it cycles to the next set of freebies.

Mobile players aren’t left out either; the Epic Games Store’s weekly giveaways are also available on Android and iOS, offering another chance to grab a complimentary title on the go.
