If you want one of the best looking uses of. ray tracing in gaming and a game of the year title go pick it up for free from the Epic Games Store. Even without a ray tracing card it’s worth playing but anyone who is in the queue I feel should pick this game up. https://www.epicgames.com/store/en-US/p/control

I normally pick up Epic's free stuff because, why not, this on the other hand will actually save me money since I intended to get it with my new PC.

Been waiting for a chance to play this since I picked it up on Steam sale and this should at least be playable on 1070 @2160p unlike Cyberpunk with some tweaking but I already started Death Stranding and playing a "Kojima" game and a Remedy game at the same time is just a bit much.
No regrets buying it, I skipped Quantum Break due to time constraints and Windows store exclusivity nonsense but Remedy games are always worth playing.

Especially when it’s an AAA rated title that gamers should experience. I get all the Epic Games weekly but this one is a stand out hit which for Epic Games only happens a few times a year.

Great title. Worth returning to for the two added DLC as well.

Epic games has been a breath of fresh air since we are not used to being free games. If they keep this up, we finally might have competitor for Steam. Can't wait to install this after work.

Some people don’t like Remedy titles. I personally liked Allen awake, Max Payne, and Quantum Break (though the TV show parts are kind of long in Quantum Break). I would say it’s worth the $60 especially if you have an RTX card. For those who are not as much of a fan I would say $39 would be very reasonable and free well that becomes simple. For anyone picking it up for free the season pass for $8 seems really worth it since $8 for the whole adventure is a steal and both the DLC are good and don’t feel like cash grabs.

I've heard lots of good things about this game, but I feel like playing it on a 970 is just sad. If I never get a chance to upgrade this card, I'll just play it on PS4.

I still run 1080 on my gtx970. Hoping to score RTX 3080 at least soon, I hear this is a great game.

I understand why they're giving these games away for free, but I don't understand how they're doing it. It's gotta be costing them A LOT of money. But maybe the exposure is worth it. Anyway I ain't complaining one bit :D
