Cat Quest II is available for free on the Epic Games Store this week

The second week of the latest mystery giveaway event on the Epic Games Store has arrived, bringing a new game available for claiming. For week two of this ongoing promotion, Cat Quest II has taken the place of last week's free offerings, Cat Quest and Neko Ghost, Jump, continuing the cat-related theme.

Cat Quest II debuted as a sequel to the original title developed by Gentlebros in 2019, enhancing the gameplay mechanics and storyline while introducing dogs into the game world. The narrative takes place in the fantasy lands of Felingard and the Lupus Empire, where a conflict exists between cats and dogs. After a disaster, the two monarchs of these realms must, albeit reluctantly, collaborate to reclaim their thrones.

This open-world action RPG also includes a cooperative gameplay mode, allowing players to control both cat and dog characters in local split-screen co-op. In single-player mode, players can swap between the two characters at will.

Reviews suggest it has received favorable feedback. On Metacritic, scores vary from 80 to 86 depending on the platform, while its user review rating on the Epic Games Store is an impressive 4.7 out of 5 stars. Additionally, on Steam, the game boasts an “Overwhelmingly Positive” rating, which is the highest possible rating on the platform, thanks to a 95 percent approval rating from 5,084 user reviews.

Cat Quest II is presently available for free on the Epic Games Store. Typically, the game retails for $14.99 when not on sale, but PC gamers can now obtain it without any cost. The next giveaway on the store is anticipated to begin on April 10 with River City Girls.
