What’s Free on the Epic Games Store This Week?

If you’re searching for new games and think you can never have too many, the Epic Games Store is the place to be. Just like Steam from Valve, this platform from Epic lets gamers snag a massive library of games without any limits. As long as you’ve got a decent gaming PC, you can dive into everything the Epic Games Store has, from awesome free games to amazing discounts.

The Epic Games Store has been giving away free games weekly since 2019, and it doesn’t look like it’ll be stopping these offers anytime soon. Regardless of what storefront you use, the general rule of thumb is never to look a gift horse in the mouth when it comes to discounts and deals, or ignore freebies. So if you’re not a registered user already, we recommend creating an account so you can download a new game each week.

Read on below to find out previous free game offers from Epic, as well as what’s on offer at the Epic Games Store this week, and the next.

Beholder

Have you ever woken up in the morning and thought, “I’d like to be one of the worst people in the world?” If the answer is yes, that’s scary, and also you should probably live out that fantasy in Beholder.

In this game, you take on the role of a state-installed landlord in a totalitarian country, and you’re given the opportunity to spy and snitch on your tenants to see if they’re planning against the state.

You can download Beholder now via the Epic Games Store.

Who hasn’t imagined themselves as a potato with a gun now and then? In Brotato, you play as a sentient potato from Potato World who has unfortunately crashed on an alien planet.

As the sole survivor, Brotato must handle all sorts of automatic weapons to defend himself against a hostile, alien environment while awaiting rescue.

You can download Brotato for free next week via the Epic Games Store.
