Epic Games Store Makes 2 PC Games Completely Free This Week
The Epic Games Store is offering two free games to PC users this week as part of its rotating free game promotion. The selection includes a contemporary horror shooter and a classic indie title.
Sker Ritual is a cooperative horror shooter designed for solo or online multiplayer sessions with up to four players. The game employs a round-based format combined with roguelike-style progression, where players unlock upgrades and special abilities called “Miracles” granted by Celtic gods between rounds. This progression system draws similarities to mechanics found in other popular titles like Hades. The game has accumulated nearly 4,000 Very Positive reviews on Steam, indicating strong reception from the player community.
Home is a pixel art horror game originally released in 2012. The inclusion of this older indie title makes it available to a broader audience through the free promotion, potentially introducing the decade-old game to players who may have missed its original release.
Both titles will be available at no cost during the promotional period. Epic Games’ free game initiative remains a core strategy for driving user engagement and platform growth, with the company regularly rotating free titles to encourage storefront visits and user retention.
