For all the complaints thrown in Epic Games Store’s direction, almost everyone agrees that there’s no storefront better at handing out free games. Since its inception, EGS has established a reputation for doing free game giveaways at regular intervals, with the titles ranging from indie hits to AAA blockbusters.
Everyone remembers when Epic gave away GTA V for free to millions of players during the height of the pandemic. More recently, the platform handed out Portkey’s smash hit, Hogwarts Legacy, entirely free of cost. With December marking the start of EGS’s daily giveaways, it’s crucial to keep up with their schedule and ensure that you don’t miss a drop. And to help you do exactly that, we’ve got all the info on the Epic Games Store’s free games in this guide.
Epic Games Free Games This Week (Dec 30 – Jan 3)
- December 30: Trine Classic Collection
- December 31: Dying Light 2 Stay Human: Reloaded Edition
- January 1: Blasphemous (Leak)
- January 2: GRIME (Leak)
- January 3: Batman: Arkham Collection (Leak)
This week, the Epic Games free games list includes titles such as Trine Classic Collection and Dying Light 2. Before you get excited, there are things to keep in mind.
For starters, each free game will only be available for a single day. If you manage to claim it within 24 hours, it’s yours to keep forever. But if you miss out on that window, there’s no way to redeem the offer. Moreover, this week’s list also includes games based on leaked info. These titles are yet to be confirmed, but we’ll be sure to update this list once they are. For a look at upcoming free games, be sure to check out our guide on the entire Epic Games Holiday giveaway.
Next Free Game on Epic Games Store
According to leaked information, the next Epic Store free game is Dying Light 2: Reloaded Edition. Techland’s long-awaited follow-up to the beloved original didn’t have the smoothest of landings, but thanks to consistent support, Dying Light 2 is an incredibly fun action-adventure with lite RPG elements that is stuffed with content in 2025.

Do Free Epic Games Store Games Expire?
No, Epic Game Store’s free games never expire once you’ve claimed them. If you claimed any of the free games within their redemption period and added them to your library, they’re never going to expire. This means you’ll be able to download them any time, be it a few months or years later.
Of course, there are some exceptions. For example, if you redeemed an online-only game, it might stop working once the devs shut down its server. This is a pretty rare occurrence, but it’s still worth remembering.
And that is everything you need to know about the current Epic Games Store free games. Which free games are you hoping to see on the platform? Let us know in the comments.
