The Holiday Giveaway Returns
Epic officially confirmed that the holiday promotion began on December 11 with Hogwarts Legacy as the first free game. The action role-playing title set in the Wizarding World was one of the most commercially successful games of 2023, making its inclusion a major highlight. Hogwarts Legacy remains free to claim until December 18 at 10:00am CST, after which the store is expected to begin its daily mystery game cycle.
Leaked List of Possible Upcoming Free Games
A list that reportedly originated from Chinese social media platforms outlines a full schedule of free games running from December 11 through December 31. Epic Games has not verified the accuracy of this list, but similar leaks have appeared in previous years, some of which later matched the official lineup.
If the leak is accurate, the lineup would feature a broad mix of AAA blockbusters, strategy games, narrative-driven titles, and well-known indie releases. This balance closely mirrors the structure of Epic's previous holiday promotions.
Final Thoughts
For now, Hogwarts Legacy is the only confirmed free game, and the rest of the holiday lineup remains a mystery. The leaked list offers an interesting preview of what could be coming, but players will need to wait for each daily reveal starting December 18 to know for sure. Until then, the Epic Games Store holiday promotion continues to build anticipation as one of the most watched seasonal events in PC gaming.
