![]() Spellbreak is also on PS4, Xbox One and Switch, and with full cross-platform play support there was no issue finding games, jumping into the action within a few seconds of searching. This is why it makes sense for Spellbreak to be free-to-play, and while there is questions as to way it is Epic Games Store exclusive on the PC platform, it does not cost anything to open an account and download the game on that digital store front.
