Epic Games Store is ending its annual holiday promotion with a pair of free titles for PC gamers. Following a 15-day streak of daily free game giveaways, the digital storefront is offering both Total War: THREE KINGDOMS and Wildgate for a limited time, concluding the campaign on January 8th. This continues a strategy by Epic Games Store to attract and retain users through regular, no-cost game offerings-a growing trend in the competitive gaming market.
These are the first free games on the platform this 2026
Epic Games Store is wrapping up its holiday giveaway campaign, offering gamers a final chance to claim free titles. The digital storefront, known for its regular free game offerings, has been distributing daily mystery games throughout the holiday season, allowing users 24 hours to download a title at no cost. The platform has given away a total of 15 games, and is now concluding the promotion with two additional freebies.
Today, Epic Games Store revealed Total War: THREE KINGDOMS as the sixteenth free title, now available for download. Players can claim the game until January 8th at 5:00 PM (Spanish peninsular time). Once added to an Epic Games Store account, the game remains permanently accessible to the player. This model of free game distribution has become a key strategy for attracting and retaining users on the platform, a growing trend in the competitive PC gaming market.

Total War: THREE KINGDOMS immerses players in the epic conflicts of ancient China, a period defined by heroes and legends. The game combines empire building, political maneuvering, and conquest with impressive real-time battles. Players can choose from a roster of 12 legendary warlords and strive to conquer the realm.
Wildgate, the last free game in Epic Games Store’s holiday promotion
Following the fifteenth holiday gift from Epic Games Store, Wildgate is now also available for free, a multiplayer PvPvE shooter with three distinct modes. In Artifact Brawl, the first team to secure the artifact and escape through the Indomitable Gate, or eliminate all opposing teams, wins. Fleet Battle pits two massive teams of up to 12 players against each other in relentless, action-packed combat. For a more relaxed treasure-hunting experience, players can embark on a Scavenger Hunt to recover treasures and escape with the loot before being eliminated.
