The Epic Games Store has kicked off its much-anticipated annual winter sale, a festive event that gamers look forward to each year. True to tradition, Epic is set to delight its users with a series of complimentary PC games throughout the duration of the sale.
Free Game Offerings
While the specifics of the free games remain under wraps for now, a total of 16 titles will be available at no cost. Given the impressive lineup from previous years, expectations are high. Past giveaways have included a mix of celebrated indie gems and blockbuster titles, such as Control and Death Stranding.
The first game to be offered for free is The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, which has already seen a price reduction on the Epic Games Store. This offer will remain active until 8 AM on December 19, with additional games being unveiled daily thereafter. To take advantage of these giveaways, users simply need to create a free Epic Games Store account.
Sale Duration and Rewards
The winter sale itself will continue until 11 AM on January 9, 2025. During this period, shoppers will also benefit from the Epic Rewards program, which offers a generous ten percent back on all purchases made during the holiday sale. This is a notable increase from the usual five percent reward rate, providing an enticing incentive for gamers looking to expand their libraries.
