The Epic Games Store continues to give away a free game each week, and this week is another nice find with a price that can’t be beaten. Every Thursday at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, Epic offers at least one free PC game (and sometimes even as many as two or three). All you need to do to claim the free games is create a free Epic account and enable two-factor authentication. You have a week to add the freebies to your library before the new one(s) take their place. At this point, Epic has given away hundreds of free games, and there’s no sign that the program will stop any time soon. We keep this article up to date weekly to highlight both the current free games and next week’s offerings.
Current free games at Epic
This week, you can grab Empyrion: Galactic Survival and Outliver: Tribulation. First released in 2020, Empyrion is a sci-fi open-world survival game where you’re tasked with constructing massive capital vessels, establishing planetary settlements, and building space stations in the cold depths of space. Outliver: Tribulation combines African mythology with souls-like and survival-horror gameplay elements to create a supernatural third-person experience. As Bolanle Gboyega, a soldier on the run from insurgents, you’ll fall into a strange realm full of trials and tribulations.

Next week, you can grab Invincible Presents: Atom Eve and Kardboard Kings: Card Shop Simulator. The first Invincible game combined comic book art with a visual-novel style of gameplay, and follows the matter-manipulating Atom Eve on her journey to become a hero. There are several crucial decisions to make in this short game, and it has a cool soundtrack by Canadian electro-pop duo Milk and Bone.
