Summary
- Epic Games Store offers Kill Knight free for a limited time.
- EGS users have until Sunday, December 29 at 10:00am CST to claim it for their digital libraries.
- At least 5 more games are expected to be a part of the latest free mystery game promotion.
Epic Games Store users can now claim Kill Knight completely free of charge for a limited time. Counting Kill Knight, the latest Epic Games Store free mystery game promotion has so far given users a whopping 11 free games, and the thing is, there are even more on the way.
It’s always possible that plans will change, but for the time being, it seems that Epic Games Store users have at least five more free mystery games to claim as part of the latest promotion. A new Epic Games Store free mystery game is expected to drop on December 29, December 30, December 31, January 1, and January 2, with the last one expected to be available for an entire week. At that point, the Epic Games Store will presumably switch back to its usual free game giveaways, which means users can expect new freebies on a weekly basis instead of daily, and the “mystery” element will go away.

Kill Knight is undoubtedly one of the highest value Epic Games Store free mystery games released this go around, thanks to the fact that it’s a relatively new game, and it has high review scores. It will likely be well-received by Epic Games Store fans, especially after some of the free mystery games have left fans disappointed.
For example, there were some Epic Games Store users that were disappointed that the EGS Christmas Day free game was Control. While Control is an incredible game, it was already given away for free through the Epic Games Store in the past. Newer EGS users that missed out on the previous Control giveaway were no doubt happy about the second chance, but longtime users were understandably disappointed that the Christmas Day free game was a rerun. In any case, there are more Epic Games Store free games to look forward to before the new promotion is over, and so fans should keep an eye out for what’s next.
