We love living on this planet, don’t you? To celebrate Earth Day 2023, the Epic Game Store worked with our friends at E-Line Media to make their hit titles Never Alone and Beyond Blue free from April 20 11 AM ET to April 27 11 AM ET.

From hunting for the source of an eternal blizzard to photographing the crystal blue depths of our oceans, you’ll be exposed to all the beauty and life of our expansive ecosystem in this pair of classic games. 

We can do a lot to help make life on the planet more sustainable and preserve the beauty that is our environment. Hopefully enjoying these titles is step one in taking action that helps ensure the longevity of Earth. For more information and action ideas, check out the Earth Day action tool kit.

 

Never Alone



Never Alone is an atmospheric puzzle platformer developed in collaboration with the Iñupiat, an Alaska Native people, drawn from a traditional story that has been shared across the generations.

Earth Day Never Alone Free
Guide both characters in single-player mode or play cooperatively with a friend as you trek through frozen tundra, leap across treacherous ice floes, swim through underwater caverns and face enemies both strange and familiar.

On over 75 "Best of 2014" lists and winner of "Best Debut Game" at the 2015 BAFTA Games Awards as well as "Game of the Year" and "Most Significant Impact" at the 2015 Games for Change Awards, nearly 40 Alaska Native elders, storytellers, and community members contributed to the making of the game.

You'll explore awe-inspiring environments, perform heroic deeds and meet legendary characters from Iñupiaq stories — all narrated by a master storyteller in the spoken Iñupiaq language.

 

Beyond Blue



Beyond Blue is a single-player narrative adventure that takes you deep into our planet’s beating blue heart.

Earth Day Beyond Blue Free
Set in the near future, Beyond Blue explores the mysteries of our ocean through the eyes of Mirai, a deep-sea explorer and scientist. Become a part of a newly-formed research team using groundbreaking technologies to see, hear, and interact with the ocean in a more meaningful way than has ever been attempted.

Embracing the same inclusive development process that was used to create Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna), E-Line’s BAFTA award-winning game about Alaska Native culture, the company partnered with BBC Studios (developers of the acclaimed Blue Planet II), OceanX Media, world-class game makers, and some of science’s leading ocean experts to craft an experience that reflects the wonder and unbounded mystery that infuses our planet's beating blue heart.
