Since its 2018 launch, the Epic Games Store has consistently offered free games. Creating an account allows users to claim these free titles within a limited timeframe, adding them permanently to their library.

These surprise releases often prove to be major hits, alongside a selection of indie titles. The weekly free game releases also generate considerable excitement.
