Epic Games Store announced this Friday (26) the tenth free title of its traditional end-of-year promotion. We Were Here Together, a cooperative puzzle game, can be redeemed free of charge until 1pm on Saturday (December 27th), Brasília time. The offer is part of the series of daily releases that began in mid-December and continues until the end of the year, delivering complete games to users’ permanent libraries.
The title developed by Total Mayhem Games puts two players in the role of explorers trapped in an abandoned station on Antártida. The pair must constantly communicate via radio to solve asymmetrical environmental puzzles and escape a hostile environment. The central mechanics require precise coordination, as each participant only sees part of the solution and must describe what they observe to their partner.
Gameplay and setting details
We Were Here Together offers around eight to ten hours of main content. The puzzles grow in complexity throughout the campaign, incorporating elements such as manipulating mechanisms, observing symbols and temporal coordination.
Players explore frozen corridors and mysterious rooms. The narrative progresses through dialogue and discoveries that reveal the history of the lost expedition. The icy atmosphere reinforces the feeling of isolation and urgency throughout the progress.
The game received positive reviews on digital platforms, highlighting the quality of mandatory cooperation and the construction of progressive tension.
Technical requirements to run the game
The title presents moderate hardware demands. Minimum requirements include Windows 10 64-bit, fourth generation Intel Core i5 processor or equivalent, 8 GB of RAM, Nvidia GTX 1060 6GB or similar graphics card and 20 GB of free disk space.
Recommended settings slightly increase processor and graphics card demands to ensure fluidity at higher resolutions. The game runs well on mid-range machines released in recent years.
How to redeem the game on the platform
Access the official page of We Were Here Together on Epic Games Store via the browser or the platform launcher. Faça login to Epic account or create a new one for free.
Click the “Get” or “Free” button and confirm the addition to the library. Após redemption, the title remains available for download and unlimited play, even after the promotion ends.
Why cooperation is essential in this title
We Were Here Together does not have a single-player mode. The experience depends exclusively on the partnership between two players, who can be in the same environment or connected remotely via the internet.
Verbal communication is essential for describing puzzles that one player sees but the other does not. Erros of interpretation generate additional obstacles and increase the challenge.
The format encourages joint sessions with friends or family who also redeem the game during the free period.
Series We Were Here and its legacy in cooperative games
The We Were Here franchise began in 2017 with the first free title. The series gained popularity for prioritizing puzzles based on asymmetrical communication, influencing other games in the genre.
We Were Here Together represents the third main chapter, originally released in 2019. Recent Atualizações have improved stability and compatibility with modern hardware.
The inclusion in the Christmas promotion expands the reach of the series to new audiences looking for cooperative experiences with no initial cost.
List of games already released in the current promotion
Epic Games Store’s end-of-year campaign has already distributed several titles since mid-December. Entre the previous games are Hogwarts Legacy, Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel, Eternights, The Callisto Protocol and Disco Elysium – The Final Cut.
Each offer lasts 24 hours. The next release takes place on December 27th, maintaining the daily format until the end of the event.
The promotion continues to attract thousands of daily redemptions and reinforces the platform’s PC user loyalty strategy.
