Pretty good freebie!

Ive stocked up on quite a few PC games over the years. I now have a decent laptop I could try to play with.

Even though it was a repeat, you should definitely play Horizon Chase Turbo, especially if you liked games like Outrun.

I already owned it, but I'm pretty sure it was always a free DLC on consoles as well since I play it on PS4.

Today's Christmas freebie:
    Them's Fightin' Herds


2022 Christmas Freebies so far...
    Bloons TD 6
    Horizon Chase Turbo + Rookie Series (DLC)
    Costume Quest 2
    Sable

Nice. I'm glad I didn't impulse buy 'Them's Fightin' Herds' around Black Friday.

Tomorrow's rumored to be Wolfenstein The New Order.

Today's Christmas freebie:
    Wolfenstein: The New Order         Must be a repeat as its already in my library.

Yeah I've got Wolf:TNO in my library too, bet it was a 1-day freebie from last Christmas/holiday giveaway.

Tomorrow is definitely a LEGO game of some kind. Any guesses as to which?

While it will probably be some collection of Star Wars or Marvel or DC lego games, i'm hoping we get something more like Lego Undercover or Lego Worlds.

My guess is that we get Lego Batman Trilogy again

A new lego dating sim game?

Haha my guess is whatever has been given away in the past.

The new LEGO Skywalker Saga would be nice. It just got put up on Game Pass.

I agree, that would be a solid one.

I haven't really played a LEGO game since Lego Indiana Jones in the 360 days. The little bit I tried of Skywalker Saga, on GP, it seems to mechanically be the best LEGO game to date.

LEGO Builder's Journey

I guess it's better than yet another LEGO game based on a movie series. If you've played one of those, you've pretty much played 'em all.

LEGO Builders Journey up today. Looks like tomorrow will be a Fallout game (likely 3 since it's a repeat).

Yep, tomorrow is more likely than not Fallout.

Probably either 3 or New Vegas, since I don't think 4 ever came to Epic. Although who knows tomorrow could be the Epic launch, and it's free the first day.

It wouldn't be the first time EPIC has done that.

Could also be Fallout 1,2, or tactics, although it could also be Stalker 2, 60 seconds, Atom RPG, etc

I'm glad they're doing the hints for the next day. It makes guessing the next freebie fun

Where are the hints at?

its in the wrapping paper of next item. Tomorrows is showing radiation symbol, so fallout is a good guess, but any post apocalyptic game could be it like stalker.

I guess it could also be Chernobylite

I'm happy with Lego Builder's Journey - game looked neat when it launched and I think it's something I'll at least give a shot. Versus a lot of other free games on Epic and Twitch/Amazon Games that have been meh or already something I've owned/played.

I expected a Fallout game, but 3 of them being free is pretty nice!

I hope its Metro Exodus. It has a next gen update.

Exodus would be nice, but I can see them just giving away both 2033 Redux and Last Light Redux again.

Metro Last Light Redux (it's a repeat)
I saw on Twitter that tomorrow's game will be Death Stranding

So today's game is indeed Death Stranding, but I'm unable to claim it. It says it's unavailable.

edit: From what I've been reading, they originally had the Director's Cut version of the game for free but have since changed it to the standard version. And it's showing as unavailable for a lot of people.

edit 2: I was able to claim it by logging in to the Epic Games website, not through the desktop app thingy.

edit 3: The game doesn't actually show in my library, but if I try to claim it again it says I already have it.

I saw a headline that said that today's Epic game was so good that it was crashing the store, so that's likely the issues you were having @PizzaTheHutt
I chuckled at the 'so good' line since I still fully expect the game to suck and am VERY unlikely to ever play it.
I did get it just ~10 mins ago and had no issues, it also auto-included 3 add-ons and I see it in my library as the game and then the 3 Add-Ons in another single listing.

Very excited for the rumored game for tomorrow: F.I.S.T. Forged In Shadow Torch - at least that was what I saw on SlickDeals. I'll install that one asap if it's correct.

There is a decent game listed for free on GoG as well with ~12 hours left there, some title called Greak: Memories of Azur

Make sure you don't have filters enabled in library that are hiding it. That was the case for me.

I managed to "buy" it when it still showed the Director's Cut. Now, I have the base game and the add on content, but the store listing still shows I can buy the game. When I tried, just to make sure I really had it, it gives an error that I already own the game, like you describe. I suspect you have it, but the library view needs refreshing or filters turned off.

Here’s your reminder that F.I.S.T. Is today’s game

A leaker says the free games for tomorrow and Wednesday are

As for Thursday's game, he claims it's from a "really good franchise" and doesn't want to spoil it.

I waffled when this was $15 for a physical copy for Switch and PS last week, but didn't bite. So this was a nice redemption.

DCGX wrote:


Ironically - if I knew it was $15 physical on switch last week, I would have jumped at that

As confirmed by the leak, today's game is in fact Severed Steel.

Based on the preview for tomorrow, I'd say they are correct on both counts. Thursday sounds exciting!

What's coming in the next couple days?
