Epic Games Store: daily free games for the holiday season 65 comments
A little late and a week after the start of the Christmas sales, the Epic Games Store is now releasing free games daily, like last year. The duration of the promotion is uncertain, but it can be assumed that it will not continue beyond the sale – January 9, 2025 at 5 p.m.
Mix of independent and AAA pearls
Last year, in addition to small independent games, large AAA productions also got involved. Above all, titles such as Destiny 2: Legacy Collection, Marvel’s Guardian of the Galaxy (test) and The Outer Worlds: Spacers Choice Edition (test) were included in 2023.
Discreet and free independent hits until 5 p.m.
This year begins with the pixelated adventure game Vampire Survivors. The roguelike title can be played in local co-op. With different heroes, you must survive in an arena populated by monsters and collect gems and equipment.
The game may seem low-key at first glance, but it has a metascore of 86/100 and a user rating of 8.3. With more than 230,000 Steam reviews and an “extremely positive” overall rating, the small indie game is a real success precisely thanks to its multiplayer mode.
Vampire Survivors can be added to your own library in the Epic Games Store for free until 5 p.m. today, before the next game.
