Sable's an absolutely incredible game, and it's currently free to keep on the Epic Games Store.
into a daily drop, with a new game becoming free to keep each morning. The offerings so far have been good, don't get me wrong. I don't want to take anything away from Horizon Chase Turbo or Costume Quest 2. . In our review of the game, Nat Clayton declared,"Sable's lonely, heartfelt journey of self-discovery will sit with me for a lifetime," and awarded it an enviable 93% score.
I remember following the development of this chill open world exploration game for years and being blown away every time developer Shedworks shared a new snippet of gameplay footage. Sable's cell shaded art style, an homage to the influential French illustrator Jean Giraud Moebius, is a revelation on the order of Wind Waker's breakout look. Gameplay aside, Sable is just a visual feast that has to be experienced.
Sable doesn't have a massive open world, but it's big enough—handcrafted, full of surprises, and it never wears out its welcome. The game apes Breath of the Wild's great trick of only doling out a little bit of the map to you at a time, and it's full of the same sort of devilish puzzles and platforming challenges that were the gameplay highlights of BotW for me.
Sable was formerly available on PC Game Pass, but left the service back in October. Even if Epic isn't your main launcher of choice, it's absolutely worth it to log in and grab Sable if you don't have it yet. I played it at launch on Steam, and I envy anybody who's about to tackle it for the first time.Sign up to get the best content of the week, and great gaming deals, as picked by the editors.
