What is FreeGames?
FreeGames is a free email notification service that tracks the Epic Games Store free games program. Epic has been giving away free PC games every single week since December 2018 — hundreds of games worth thousands of dollars — and most people miss them simply because they forgot to check.
We fix that. Enter your email once, and we'll send you a notification every Thursday when new free games go live, plus a reminder 24 hours before they expire so you always have time to claim them.
How It Works
No account. No credit card. No nonsense.

Every Thursday when Epic drops new free games, you get an email with the game names, cover art, and a direct link to claim them in one click. We also send a 24-hour expiry reminder so you never run out of time.

Claim & Keep Forever
Click the link, add it to your Epic library, and the game is yours permanently — even after the free period ends. No subscription required to play it later.
