Epic Games Store’s daily giveaways continue through the rest of the year
The Epic Games Store’s latest free mystery game has been revealed. Until 11 a.m. EST on Dec. 21, Blood West will be available to claim for free at Epic.
Blood West is a horror-tinged immersive shooter with stealth elements. You play as the “Undead Gunsligner” and roam the Wild West killing other undead abominations. Reviewers have compared it to STALKERexcept you fight eldritch horrors instead of… Okay, well, STALKER‘s enemies aren’t technically eldritch, but they are horrors.
Typically, we know what game Epic is giving away a week in advance. However, during the holiday season, Epic literally wraps the game in mystery; the thumbnails on the Epic Games Store just show an image of a wrapped holiday present (complete with a bow on top). In 2024, the Epic Games Store gave away more than a dozen games in the two weeks leading into the new year, many of which were terrific, including Dredge, Controland Sifu.
If you want to pick up the Epic free game, all you need to do is log in to the Epic Games Store and claim it. The free mystery games are free for 24 hours, and reset each day at 11 a.m. EST, when the next mystery game will be revealed. We’ll be updating this story regularly as new games cycle in and out of availability.
For context, here’s a list of games the Epic Games Store has made free in December 2025:
- Eternights (Dec. 19)
- Jotunnslayer: Hordes of Hel (Dec. 18)
