It seems like a win - win situation for everyone to me. Not to mention that this will give the players a choice, the developer / publisher will make some extra revenue and existing owners of the game will have even more players to play with. World War Z, the four-player co-op third-person zombie shooter, joins the list of free games announced on the Epic Games Store.
