Our Picks for the Epic Games Store Holiday Sale 2019

As we often do, we've picked out a few games that we think are worth picking up during the Epic Games Store Holiday Sale 2019.

Control

$40.19 (33% off) — Our Review

It's your first day as the Director of the Bureau of Control, a secretive agency in New York whose job is to handle the paranormal activity. Unfortunately, things are going so well for you. Things seem pretty strange and there's practically nobody in the building — just what the heck is going on? Step inside and find out!

Metro Exodus

$19.99 (50% off) — Our Review

The stunning third game in the Metro 2033 franchise, Metro Exodus takes the winning formula of Metro 2033 and Metro: Last Light to a whole new level. After some shenanigans with Hansa, Artyom, Anna, and several Rangers decide to escape Moscow. You'll travel to new areas in search of a permanent home for your crew while exploring multiple open-world locations. Make the right decisions, though, or everyone might not survive the trip.

My Time at Portia

$20.09 (33% off) — Our Review

In the town of Portia, you've inherited an old workshop that isn't in the best state. Fortunately, you have the skills needed to restore it to its former glory! This is basically like Stardew Valley but with building some pretty cool machines on top of it, so that should tell you everything you need to know!

The Outer Worlds

$44.99 (25% off) — Our Review

A little-known fact about Fallout: New Vegas is that it's technically not a finished game; the Legion campaign had to be cut so that Obsidian Entertainment could ship the game on time. A lot of Fallout fans hoped to see what Obsidian could do without said constraints. The Outer Worlds is not that game, but it's a good first step.

Play a game that's a lot like a fairly smaller Fallout: New Vegas with a batch of interesting characters in a brand-new, original story. Best of all, some more DLC for this fantastic role-playing game is coming sometime next year!

Rebel Galaxy Outlaw

$22.49 (25% off) — Our Review

Some say that space combat games are a dying genre. Double Damage Games said screw that and made one of the finest games in the genre in recent memory.

You play Juno Markev, a scrappy pilot, trader, and general ne'er-do-well who's out to avenge her husband. Unfortunately, your ship was shot down and you only have the interstellar equivalent of a garbage truck. Rebuild your fortune and track down the people who have wronged you!

Subnautica

$16.24 (35% off) — Our Review

There are goodness knows how many open-world survival crafting games out there, and yes, Subnautica is one of them. It has two interesting upsides, though: it's set almost entirely underwater, and it's actually a complete experience. If you're looking for a great survival game full of story and you don't mind heading a mile or two into the depths, this would make for a fine choice.

Untitled Goose Game

$19.99 (0% off)

You'll note that Untitled Goose Game has a 0% discount — that's because the game isn't on sale. Lest we forget, there is that neat $10 coupon that you can apply to this (and a whole bunch of other games), effectively meaning that this game's price drops to $9.99. Play as a goose who causes mayhem by honking and people and stealing their keys for fun and profit. It's a delightful stealth game where you get to be a bastard. Honk!


And that's it for our picks in the Epic Games Store Holiday Sale 2019! Don't just sit there, go and check out what else is on sale!
