Epic Games free games list: What free games are on the Epic Games Store right now?

Plus a list of all previous free games on the Epic Games Store

What free games are on the Epic Games Store right now? Since it launched in late 2018, the Epic Games Store has become known for giving away one or more of its games each week for free. Not just to play, but to own. Forever.

We think that's something quite special, and worth celebrating. It's also well worth you logging into your Epic account every week or so and adding the new week's free game into your library even if it's not the kind of game you feel like playing. After all, you might change your mind, and it costs you nothing to pick it up and own it forever.

Below we'll highlight which is the currently free game on the Epic Games Store, and which free game is coming up next week. We'll also give you a rundown of every permanently free game on the Epic Store, and every game that has ever been made free as part of Epic's weekly deals, dating all the way back to December 2018.

Below this scene, small birds travel through tunnels cutting between green ground with skull-faced flowers growing in it.

Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms (free June 22-29)

This official Dungeons & Dragons strategy management tie-in game is a treat for fans of the D&D multiverse. While the base game is F2P anyway, claiming during this period will also net you the EGS-exclusive Wulfgar's Legends of Renown Pack (worth $100, apparently).
