River City Girls 2 is free on the Epic Games Store from July 2 to July 9, 2026, alongside I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream. Once you claim it during the giveaway window, it stays in your Epic library.
This is a colorful side-scrolling beat ’em up from WayForward, starring Misako, Kyoko, Kunio, Riki, plus newcomers Marian and Provie. River City is bigger this time, the combat has more options, and the whole thing looks like it wants to kick you in the face with a bubblegum-pop soundtrack playing in the background.
You can play solo or team up in local or online co-op, explore new areas, unlock moves, recruit helpers, and punch an unreasonable number of people directly in the face. The Epic page lists six playable characters, upgraded move sets, guard crushes, lift-off combos, elemental attacks, secret areas, and “hired heavies” who can help you in fights.
Basically, if you like old-school brawlers but wish they had more anime attitude, RPG progression, and chaotic friendship energy, this is one to grab. It is the kind of game where solving problems with violence is not just allowed — it is probably in the tutorial.
