If you go for the average price tier, which is currently at around $8, you get The Walking Dead A New Frontier, Michonne, and The Final Season to complete the series.

Going for the final tier, the remastered complete collection The Walking Dead: The Telltale Definitive Series as well as the VR title The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners are available, all for $11.

The ongoing freebie train of the Epic Games Store made a stop this week to give away Unrailed, replacing last week's Lawn Mowing Simulator.

This arcade party game is a four-player cooperative experience that has the group constructing railroads as the train keeps barreling forward. In the procedurally generated levels there are resources to harvest, bridges to build, mountains to dig through, and tracks to lay down at the same time.

Unrailed will remain free to claim until next Thursday, August 11, which is when Cook, Serve, Delicious! 3 will become a freebie on the Epic Games Store.
