To encourage gamers to move over to its store, Epic Games is giving away one free game every single Thursday until June 11th during MEGA Sale 2020. Once you install the game, it’s yours to keep forever! In addition to some free PC games, you can also get up to 75% off across the entire store as well as a $10 coupon with every eligible purchase.
Considering this strategy worked last year, it only makes sense that Epic would continue to give away its games for free in 2020. If you didn’t manage to grab a free game last year, now’s your chance!
Even if you aren’t necessarily a fan of one of the games available on a particular week, it’s worth logging into your Epic Games account and adding it to your library. After all, a free game is a free game! If you’re too lazy to log in on your computer or you simply can’t access it, you can even claim your free game on your mobile.
To keep you up to date with the latest, we have listed all of the past, present, and upcoming free games available on the Epic Games Store.
Epic Games Store Free Game
Available from May 28 to June 4, 2020: Borderlands: The Handsome Collection
Epic continues to knock it out of the park by following up last month’s Civilization 6 with Borderlands: The Handsome Collection. This free bundle includes both Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel, Borderlands 2 and all of the bonus add-on content available for both games.
If you enjoy playing the first and second game in the series, we highly recommend picking up the third installment while it’s on sale (-50%).

Epic Games Store Free Upcoming Game
Available from June 4 to June 11, 2020: ARK: Survival Evolved
The very last free game available during MEGA Sale 2020 goes on sale in just a few days. According to recent rumours, the next (and last) free game on the Epic Games Store will be ARK: Survival Evolved.
Do note that this has not been 100% confirmed and therefore the free game available on June 4th may differ. That being said, past leaks have been very precise, so we look forward to seeing if the last prediction is accurate.
If it’s not, we’re eager to know what game Epic is giving away this time.

Never Miss out on a Free Game Again
I’m going to be honest with you: the first time I ever heard about Epic giving away free games was when they gave away the premium edition of Grand Theft Auto V earlier last month. It’s sad to admit, but I’m sure I’m not alone, which is exactly why we don’t want you to miss out on another free game ever again.
Fortunately, it appears as though Epic is going to continue to give away plenty of free games in the foreseeable future, so as long as you keep your eye on the Epic Games Store ( and this article), you won’t miss out on any more free games.
As we continue to hear more news, we will update this article so that you never miss a thing!
