The Epic Games Store is kicking off 2025 by offering Kingdom Come: Deliverance as its first freebie of the year. If you’re keen on grabbing this medieval action-RPG, make sure to do so before January 2. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Kingdom Come: Deliverance pop up on the Epic Games Store’s free list; it was also available at no cost back in 2020.
Epic Games’ latest mystery promotion has been quite generous, dishing out 15 free games so far. The excitement began with The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria—a survival game offered from December 12 to December 19. After this, Epic Games switched gears to daily giveaways. Following The Lord of the Rings was Vampire Survivors on December 19, with a fresh free game being introduced every day through December. The final mystery release of 2024 was the action-packed Sifu. As 2025 rolls in, there are still a couple more free surprises to come.
Currently, gamers can snag Kingdom Come: Deliverance, renowned for its realistic depiction of medieval times. Initially launched in 2018 to mixed reviews, the game has since garnered a “Very Positive” rating on Steam. It’s available free for a limited time—up until January 2 at 10:00 am CST—after which a brand new mystery game will take its place.
Here’s a recap of the games that have graced the Epic Games Store for free recently:
– The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria (Dec 12 – Dec 19)
– Vampire Survivors (Dec 19)

As of this writing, the final game in this mystery parade hasn’t been revealed. The lineup so far has been a mix of everything—from indie gems to major blockbusters—and even included some titles making a comeback. Kingdom Come: Deliverance is one of those reruns, first offered free back in 2020. Loyal users of the Epic Games Store might feel a twinge of disappointment if they find this title already sitting in their libraries. However, those who missed out last time will be thrilled to finally add it to their collection, especially with the anticipation surrounding Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2’s upcoming release.
