Epic Games Store free games refresh weekly, giving you the opportunity to build up a solid collection of games at no extra cost. It’s usually a varied offering, with everything from AAA blockbusters to indie darlings often included. Make sure to check back in to grab these free games, even if you don’t plan on playing them right away.

Epic Games and participating developers are giving away free games each week, then, and we’re rounding up all the freebies below so you don’t miss out. Each week, we’ll list the free games you can pick up. The current offering includes a fantastic strategy game, as well as a great game creation tool.

To download the latest free titles, simply head to the Epic Games Store free games page (opens in new tab) while signed in to your account. Like any week, you can download these games to free for keep, so long as you do so before the deal expires.

Note: As part of its Holiday celebrations, Epic Games is temporarily switching up how free games are distributed. Instead of new games each week, a new game is being released every day. This will run through for the next week or so, then it’s back to business as usual.
