Epic Games users have already claimed 7 free games. Here’s the list of previous giveaways:

• The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria – A survival and exploration game set in the iconic world of Middle-earth.

Currently, you have the opportunity to claim Control, an action-adventure game set in the enigmatic and ever-shifting "Oldest House," headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Control (FBC). Players take on the role of Jesse Faden, the Bureau’s newly appointed Director, as she uncovers the mysteries of the FBC and battles a malevolent force known as the Hiss. The game’s non-linear exploration, set in a brutalist architectural marvel that defies the laws of physics, is paired with a dynamic combat system. Jesse wields the versatile Service Weapon and gains supernatural abilities by interacting with Objects of Power—ordinary items imbued with paranormal energy. Inspired by the SCP Foundation, the game blends paranormal intrigue with a "new weird" narrative style.

Praised for its innovative storytelling, atmospheric design, and cutting-edge visuals—including early use of real-time ray tracing – Control was a critical and commercial success. Combining elements of Metroidvania exploration with fast-paced combat and strategic upgrades, the game has sold over 4.5 million copies by 2024. Its legacy includes multiple expansions, a crossover with Remedy's Alan Wake, and plans for a sequel and a co-op spin-off. Control continues to captivate players with its deep lore, immersive environment, and groundbreaking approach to game design.
