Epic Games' Mystery Game: Our Prediction

Epic Games Store saw heavy traffic last week when it released NBA 2K21, and the surge in demand caused the site to crash. Tomorrow's mystery game release could cause similar traffic on the store, since Epic Games Store is a platform that always prefers to offer quality, successful titles to users for free. We've made a prediction about the mystery game Epic Games will release on May 27th.

What Will Epic Games' Mystery Game Be?

The mystery game taking NBA 2K21's spot could be Tomb Raider. Any of Rise of the Tomb Raider, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, or the 2013 reboot could be made available to users tomorrow. That's because Tomb Raider's main character, Lara Croft, joined the Fortnite Battle Pass in recent weeks. Developers are more likely to give their games away for free on gaming platforms when they have news of an upcoming new release. Also, since the game is free on PS Plus and Game Pass, Epic Games' competitive nature might not let it fall behind.

None of the Tomb Raider games, which have managed to stay popular through every era, are currently available on the Epic Games Store. But since Epic Games is a platform that likes to surprise its users, they might run into one of the Tomb Raider games tomorrow. We'll wait and see...
