The Epic Games Store and GOG have unveiled exciting new offerings for PC gamers, with both platforms launching enticing giveaways. Epic Games is currently providing a complimentary copy of The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, available for free until December 19 at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET / 4 PM GMT. This announcement confirms previous speculation regarding a series of holiday giveaways, as Epic plans to distribute a total of 16 titles throughout the festive season. Following the initial offering, players can anticipate a new mystery game to be revealed each day for the next 15 days.
In conjunction with this giveaway, Epic has also kicked off its Holiday Sale, which will run until January 9, featuring a variety of discounts on popular titles.
GOG’s Generous Offerings
Meanwhile, GOG is also joining in on the festivities by offering The Whispered World: Special Edition for free until December 15 at 6 AM PT / 9 AM ET / 2 PM GMT. To claim this title, players must opt in to receive GOG marketing emails, making it a simple yet rewarding process for those interested.
In addition to the free game, GOG is hosting its Winter Sale, which runs until January 3 and boasts over 6,500 offers, with discounts reaching up to 90%. Last year, GOG delighted its users with five free titles during the Winter Sale, and this year’s offerings are expected to create similar excitement.
Furthermore, GOG has recently introduced a Preservation Program aimed at ensuring that classic games remain accessible and playable on modern systems for generations to come. This initiative highlights GOG’s commitment to preserving gaming history while providing players with a rich library of titles to explore.
