The big mystery giveaway on the Epic Games Store has been unveiled as NBA 2K21, which is free for keepsies until May 27. It doesn’t seem very good—we included it in our list of the worst game launches of 2020, and it’s currently rocking a “mostly negative” user rating on Steam—but hey, it’s free. That’s a pretty steep discount on a game that normally goes for $60.
One nice plus about the Epic release of NBA 2K21 is that it’s crossplay compatible with the Steam version, where despite the many complaints it’s got a hefty base of players: According to SteamCharts, more than 17,500 people are currently on the courts.
