"20XX should also evoke feelings of the late 80s/early 90s, but for a slightly different reason. According to Capcom, every game in the Mega Man X franchise takes place in the year “20XX,” so any game that carries that title instantly makes me think of side-scrolling platformers, arm cannons, laser swords, robotic baddies, and spikes… so many spikes. Batterystaple Games’ 20XX delivers all of those things and much more. Changing the name of their in-progress platformer was just one of the many great decisions they’ve made so far."
20XX, Barony, and Superbrothers: Sword & Sworcery EP are free at Epic Games Store starting today. The free game offers run until August 6 at 11 AM Eastern. Once you claim them, they're yours to keep.

So, if you’re looking for something different to play and wish to get a bargain then the Xbox Deals With Gold and Spotlight Sale for 23rd-30th July, 2019 might just have what you need."
