Disagree. It could save someone from paying for something now that they could get free if they wait a week.
Even better...wait 1 week for the deal to go live and then get it free. Wink
Why spam about this a week early? It's pretty much same as "expired". Wasting people's time. Post it when it's live!

If you have a capable PC with VR, do yourself a favor and get Squadrons now. If you are a fan of star wars at all, it is the stuff that we dreamed off as children in the 80s and 90s.

Agreed.... if you are on slick deals and you have a VR, this is the deal you've been waiting for. Origin/EA gave this away a few months back, but if I can get all my origin/EA games on Epic, I can purge myself from EA's taint.

I was able to play it with my Quest 1 using the PC Link or whatever its called. You'll need a high quality USB C cable. I bought this one: https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Char...B01E9W8KYC Once you get Link working, its pretty straightforward from within the game to get it to go to VR mode. Been awhile since I did it. You may be able to do it with the wireless mode so no USB is needed. I think there's a native feature to the Quest 2 that the regular Quest doesn't have so it would require some work around.

You would still need a PC to play it on Quest.

As long as you have a capable gaming PC, it's great. That's how I play. If you were asking about standalone, it's PCVR only. It's also on Game Pass if you have it and want to play it on your PC now. I still got it for free last time, since you never know when EA will decide to take it off of Game Pass.

I paid $20 for squadrons and I feel that it was totally worth the money for VR. Free is a no brainer

This is like the 4th time on Epic squadrons has been free.

I need them to put out different games I'll never play.
