For those who may not be familiar with the games: Witch is a multiplayer hide-and-seek game in which one group plays as hunters and the other players play as witches. The witches can transform into various objects, meaning the game should appeal to those who enjoy Prop Hunt game modes. Witch has received “very positive” reviews on Steam, so it should be a great multiplayer addition to the EGS library. Ghostwire: TokyoNow it's easily one of the biggest games to be added to the Epic Games Store's lineup of free games all year long.
Ghostwire: Tokyo was developed by Tango Gameworks, the studio behind games like The evil within And HiFi Rush. Originally available as a PlayStation 5 exclusive, Ghostwire: Tokyo is a first-person action-adventure game in which players with supernatural abilities fight against ghosts. Just like Witch, Ghostwire: Tokyo has “very positive” reviews on Steam and received mostly positive reviews from critics at the time of its release in 2022. Ghostwire: Tokyo isn't a horror game, but its themes should ensure that it's still a solid game to end the spooky season.
