Mech shooter Daemon X Machina will be available for free on the Epic Games Store next week, offering PC players the chance to indulge in some captivating robot action. Originally released as a Nintendo Switch exclusive in 2019, the game later made its way to PC in the following year. In Daemon X Machina, players assume the role of mercenaries employed by the Orbital organization. These mercenaries possess powerful Arsenal mechs, allowing them to engage in thrilling combat with colossal robot enemies fueled by corrupted AIs.
The game offers extensive customization options for the mechs, with players able to equip new weapons and upgrades. If desired, players can even delve into the world of body modification, ranging from simple cosmetic enhancements to invasive surgical procedures that offer unique perks but significantly alter their appearance.
Daemon X Machina delivers a variety of game modes, including online co-op, multiplayer Exploration Missions, and a competitive mode focusing on 1v1 and 2v2 battles. Mech enthusiasts will find plenty to enjoy in this action-packed game.
Eurogamer’s Martin Robinson highly praised the game, awarding it a Recommended badge on the Nintendo Switch platform. Despite a few rough edges, Robinson recognized Daemon X Machina as an impressive revival of a sub-genre known for its imperfections. The game successfully captures the essence of classic mech games like Armored Core while refining key details.
Starting from Thursday, January 27th, PC players can download Daemon X Machina for free on the Epic Games Store. Until then, they have the opportunity to add the current offering, Relicta, a first-person physics-based puzzle game developed by Mighty Polygon, to their libraries.
The availability of Daemon X Machina for free on the Epic Games Store provides a thrilling opportunity for gamers to immerse themselves in an exciting world of robotic warfare. Whether engaged in intense multiplayer battles or embarking on exhilarating missions, players can look forward to an epic experience filled with adrenaline-fueled excitement.
