Epic Games Store Unveils This Week's Free Titles

Jun 05, 2025 11:07 PM

This week on the Epic Games Store, players can now claim Arkane Studios' critically acclaimed game, Deathloop, for free. This stylish first-person shooter, set on the mysterious island of Blackreef, challenges players to eliminate eight key targets before a time loop resets the day. Alongside Deathloop, the store is also offering Ogu and the Secret Forest, a hand-drawn adventure packed with puzzles and charming characters. Both games are available for download until June 12, after which they will be replaced by Two Point Hospital, a beloved simulation game.

What is Deathloop about?

Deathloop is an action-adventure game where players find themselves trapped in a time loop, needing to assassinate eight distinct targets on Blackreef Island before the day resets. Players must navigate through varied environments while avoiding being hunted by a rival assassin, making strategic choices to escape the loop.

Deathloop was initially released in September 2021 and has garnered significant acclaim for its unique gameplay mechanics and immersive storytelling. As part of the same universe as Arkane's Dishonored series, it features similar style and design elements, giving fans an engaging experience that combines exploration, combat, and puzzle-solving. This release on the Epic Games Store allows a new audience to experience its innovative gameplay without any cost.

Free Deathloop on Epic Guess my backlog just got bigger, but hey, at least I can finally see what all the time-loop hype’s about without spending a dime. Ogu looks like the perfect palette cleanser after all that assassin chaos too.

Epic Games Store dropping Deathloop for free is a huge win—Arkane’s time-loop chaos deserves way more players diving in. Also, Ogu’s hand-drawn charm is a sweet bonus for anyone craving something cozy between all the shooting.
