Unlike other space-based dogfighting games like “Star Wars Squadrons,” “Rebel Galaxy’s” space combat locks players in a 2D plane, which means that player-controlled ships can only move laterally. The game is littered with dozens of NPCs that provide jobs, exposition dumps and other forms of meaningful interactions as well.Ĭombat lies at the heart of “Rebel Galaxy” and players can expect to do plenty of fighting in-game. As an open-ended game, players are free to pursue whichever path they want play as a notorious space pirate that preys on trade routes or become an asteroid miner and turn in rare ores for lucrative profits. “ Rebel Galaxy” is a singleplayer open world RPG set in the fringes of the known universe.
The game succeeds “A Plague Tale: Innocence” as the store’s free game offer from last week. Action-packed space RPG “Rebel Galaxy” is currently free on the Epic Games Store as part of the service’s regular free games giveaway.
