Epic Games Store is once again treating its users to a free game, and this time it’s the thrilling Kill Knight. Like previous offers, this is only available for a short period. But if you add it to your collection before Sunday, December 29, at 10:00 am CST, it’s yours without spending a penny. This opportunity is part of EGS’s ongoing mystery game promotion that’s seen an impressive lineup of 11 games released so far, and that’s not the end of it!
Looking ahead, at least five more mystery games are set to be dropped, one each day from December 29th through to January 2nd. These will likely follow their current pattern by being available for just a day. But, the last game in this exciting lineup will remain free for a whole week. After this flurry of daily giveaways, Epic Games Store is expected to slip back into its regular routine of weekly free game offerings, leaving behind the suspense of surprise releases.
As we look forward to the final leg of this year’s mystery game blitz, it remains to be seen what other treasures Epic Games Store will reveal. In the meantime, claiming Kill Knight is a savvy move. Released to critical acclaim just a couple of months ago, this twin-stick shooter quickly impressed, earning an 83 on OpenCritic. It’s a title gamers won’t want to miss out on while it remains free.
The Epic Games Store has sweetened 2024 for its users by giving away treasures including The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria and Vampire Survivors to Control and Ghostrunner 2. The list of freebies has been fantastic, though not every unveiling has hit the mark with seasoned users. Take Control, for example. This absolute gem of a game made a return on Christmas Day; however, many longstanding users who already nabbed it in a previous offering hoped for something new.
That being said, it’s not too late for surprises! With a few more games still under wraps, fans of the Epic Games Store should keep their notifications turned on. Each game, be it a repeat or an unexpected surprise, adds to what’s been an exciting and generous holiday promotion. Whether you’re building your gaming library or discovering something new, this EGS event has had something for everyone, and the future looks bright with more deals on the horizon.
