Epic Games Store - Free Games All Year

[dogbert 614]

Been mentioned before, but thought it was worth a proper thread to remind people. Epic's new Game Store, on the PC, is offering limited time freebies for the next 10 months or so. One title available at a time, once you claim it, you can install it any time you like (you're not limited to the free time). 

 

Current freebies until August 21st - Hyper Light Drifter + Mutant Year Zero

Next - Fez

Those games are fantastic. I played both quite thoroughly, but on PS4.

Possibly, but I've heard their portal ain't all that great.  My buddy called it shit.

I totally missed Stories Untold going free. I thoroughly enjoyed it, it's a mish-mash of text adventure, point & click, puzzles, and creeping horror, taking some notes from Stranger Things, but mixing them up with 80s UK computers & more. Well worth a play.

[Magness 252]

I haven’t played it yet but, looked cool and free  

 

Also, I’m sure you’ve all seen it already but, a warning to be careful and not buy things in the Epic store too quickly or you can get your account locked...

Rime is now free, I got my dates wrong. 

[dogbert 614]

I totally forgot to post about City of Brass Kingdom New Lands is currently free (and is an awesomely understated mix of city building, tower defence, and story, all in a 2d plane...). Next up is one you shouldn't miss - Enter The Dungeon!

[Mark E 511]

Shame it isn’t Enter the Gungeon; that game is fantastic ;).

I spent an hour or so trying Kingdom New Lands on Xbox Game Pass. Wow, that thing really doesn't want to explain a single little bit of what you've got to do, does it?

Yeah, for sure. Part of the charm, for me, was figuring stuff out.

Epic now giving away a game a week for the rest of 2019!

 

In case you missed it, we’ve been offering a free game every week during the Epic Mega Sale.

Good news - we’re extending that offer through the rest of the year! That’s right: a free game every week for the rest of 2019. And remember, once you pick up a free game from the Epic Games store, it’s yours to keep. 

Enter the Gungeon next!

[dogbert 614]

Apparently they've changed their minds & Enter The Dungeon isn't free this week. Instead it's the awesome Enter The Gungeon.

[dogbert 614]

Rebel Galaxy is free this week (ahead of its awesome looking sequel). This is well worth a play BTW.

[dogbert 614]

Last Day of June is free this week.

[dogbert 614]

Overcooked is free this week.

[dogbert 614]

I missed posting about Torchlight because vacation.

[Magness 252]

It’s Limbo now and next week we get 2 freebies on the EGS. Can’t fault the free titles but, I wish they would just start working on the store front itself.
