UPDATE (Dec 13):
It seems that they might not be doing the daily free games as expected, as the next free game is available in 7 days from the Dec 13 one (available on Wed, Dec 20). Based on the following information, they say there will be 17 free games available during the Epic Games Store Holiday Sale.

On this Epic Games Store Holiday Sale page [epicgames.com], it states the following in different places on the page:
"We want you to have the happiest of holidays for 2023, so we've put together the most festive sale. It has thousands of discounted games, limitless 33% Epic Coupons, an Epic Rewards boost to 10%, 17 free games, and free cosmetics for everyone."

"The event runs from today (Dec. 13, 2023) 11 AM ET (4 PM GMT / 5 PM CET), to Jan. 10, 2024 11 AM ET (4 PM GMT / 5 PM CET) Read about the highlights below!"

"17 free games! The Epic Games Store Holiday Sale 2023 is full of free games for the duration of the sale, and the first one has just gone live! Head to the Epic Games Store Free Games page to find out all the details."
The Free Games page [epicgames.com] at the bottom now states the following:
"Giveaways are redeemable, free of charge, from December 13, 2023 at 11am EDT and will end on January 10, 2024 at 11am EDT. Giveaways are available to new and existing players and are available only in countries where the specific title and Epic Game Store are both offered. All giveaways are either redeemable in-game, or directly on the Epic Games Store and are redeemable only once."
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ORIGINAL MESSAGE:
It appears that Epic Games [epicgames.com] may start another year of daily free mystery games for approximately 15 days in the latter half of December. The first free mystery game will be revealed on Wednesday, December 13 (11am ET, 10am CT, 9am MT, 8am PT).

These are usually only available for 24 hours, so set a reminder so you don't miss them. In the past, this ran from Dec 15-29 in 2022 and from Dec 16-30 in 2021.

Note that this is unconfirmed but is expected based on prior years and the fact that the next free game is a wrapped mystery game that starts on a Wednesday instead of the normal Thursday. There are also articles out there talking about it. If you normally check on Thursdays, you'll miss the first one.

Game Listing:
If you purchase something through a post on our site, Slickdeals may get a small share of the sale.

Featured Comments

Death Stranding was one of them. They mistakenly let the Director's Cut out for free for the first lucky few who claimed right away, most likely a mistake on Epic's part. After that, it was the base standard edition for everyone else.

I remember Bloons TD6 being one that I didn't scoop up, and later bought on Steam, and then later later Epic had it for free again haha
Epic Games gives one or two free games every week throughout the year. This is a special daily freebie that is expected to start on Dec 13. Go to the link in the post (or the Epic Games home page), log into your account, and you'll see the free games in the section that currently shows GigaBash & Predecessor with a mystery game showing for Dec 13. That's where the limited-time free games show up. There are other games that are always free-to-play on that page as well, but look for the ones that are temporarily free. Make sure to claim the games while they're free, and they'll be added to your game library to keep.
Move over Yule log, time for more back log.

Quote from j1dopeman :
VAC isn't kernel-level so they are not the same. It is indeed becoming widespread for competitive fps but that doesn't make it any less concerning. Read the comments on EA's version at Ars to see how some people feel about it:
https://arstechnica.com/gaming/20...nts-page=1 [arstechnica.com]

Battleye further forces you to disable a security setting that's used to block these sorts of intrusions by malware (core isolation, stack protection). This has been the case for months.

There are also numerous reports as you can see in their faq about it killing applications that have nothing to do with cheating.

Most gamers probably don't care about disabling their pc security settings and couldn't care less about what's running on their pc interfering with other apps but a lot of people do care.
I'm honestly not interested in random user comments. The article you linked to says the anticheat software only runs when the game is running. It's true that there are false positives sometimes. I've had problems having Citrix running, but you only need to shut down these false positive programs when you want to play your game.
Anyways, I'd rather have a kernel level anti cheat program than play with people with auto aim and wall hacks.

There have been a little over 400 games giving away.
I think I missed one or two weeks, but that's about it.

Quote from jonny4 :
It shouldn't be a money thing either because I am under the impression any Windows 7 and Windows 8 product key should activate a Windows 10 or 11 install. I mean this worked for me last year to upgrade my Windows to 11 Pro.
Some of us have peripheral devices that were sort of expensive which do not run past Windows 7 due to non-upped drivers and legacy connections. I still have a system with 7, although it's not my main system.

Quote from Ns3v3n :
I just did this last night, I added the base game to epic and then the legacy edition. Once it starts to download it will download destiny 2 on epic launcher. If you use Steam, you won't be able to access the legacy edition from Epic so I activated cross save feature so my characters are available on all the platforms. After that I uninstalled the game on Steam since I don't need it to be both platform (and to delete 100gb on Steam). Started destiny 2 on Epic and my characters and stuff were there with the new edition. Hope this helps; it was a little confusing. Oh, if the game doesn't launch on Epic, you will need to go delete the epic launcher cache, after that it will delete. Google how to do so online, it's pretty simple. Enjoy.
I don't even know if this is worth the hassle... but thank you so much for explaining the process.

The original post was predicting the daily freebies to begin on Dec 13 (which was a prediction in several gaming forums/threads), as the Dec 13 freebie was the first gift-wrapped one, and the freebie went live one day sooner than normal. It seems that it doesn't start until Dec 20. When this deal post was converted by Slickdeals Admin to a Frontpage deal, it was changed to focus only on the Dec 13 freebie (Destiny 2: Legacy Collection). That might be where the confusion came from. So set a reminder for Dec 20, which is also a Wednesday.
