Anyone interested in addingMetro 2033 Reduxto their Epic Games Store library can claim it now. Meanwhile, its addition serves as further evidence that theleaked list of Epic Games Store free games for December 2020is legitimate.Metro 2033 Reduxmeans that the leaked list is now six for six, and so Epic Games Store users can safely count on the rest of the games on the list being accurate as well.
According to the leaked list of Epic Games Store free games for December 2020, tomorrow’s free game will beTropico 5.Tropico 5will be followed byInside,Darkest Dungeon,My Time at Portia,Night in the Woods,Stranded Deep,Solitairica,Torchlight 2, andJurassic World Evolution. It’s a mix of smaller indie games and more well-known releases, with award-winning titles likeInsideandNight in the Woodsarguably the most significant of the rest of the lineup.
Even if the rest of the leaked Epic Games Store free games are incorrect, the Epic Games Store will still update tomorrow at 11:00am Eastern with a new free game for users to add to their collection. And looking ahead, Epic Games Store users should be able to expect even more free games once the promotion wraps up, asEpic Games releases games for freeon its store on a regular basis.
This is part of Epic Games' plan to get more people using the Epic Games Store launcher. Besides giving away free games,Epic Games has also accomplished this by signing controversial exclusivity deals, making some big games timed-exclusives for the Epic Games Store. Oftentimes this means that certain PC games don’t come to Steam for a year or more, which has understandably upset some members of the PC gaming community.
