Here’s a list of all the games that have ever been made available for free on the Epic Games Store.
From now until Wednesday, January 1 at 10:00am CST, Epic Games Store users can claim Sifu completely free of charge. Sifu is a challenging beat ’em up game with a unique gimmick where death means the main character comes back to life, but older than he was before. Each time they come back to life, players are more powerful than they were before, but they have less health. Eventually, this will cause them to die permanently, and they will have to start the game over. Sifu is an award-winning game and generally considered one of 2022’s best new releases, so getting it for free through the Epic Games Store is a steal.

Sifu being so popular and having been out for a couple of years already means that there may be many PC gamers that have already played it, but those that have yet to do so will definitely want to jump on the opportunity to grab the game for free. Sifu is a fantastic game, after all, and being able to play it for free is a great opportunity. And if someone already owns Sifu or doesn’t vibe with it for whatever reason, the good news is that there are at least two more free mystery games to look forward to before this iteration of the promotion is over.
According to the leaked Epic Games Store free mystery game schedule, a new free mystery game will be given away on January 1, and then the final one will come on January 2. The January 2 Epic Games Store free mystery game is expected to be available for a full week instead of just a day. It will bring an end to the mystery game giveaways, with the Epic Games Store expected to go back to business as usual from that point on.
