The Epic Games Store is starting 2025 with a big giveaway. The first free game of the year is Kingdom Come: Deliverance, a medieval RPG that you can download for free until January 2nd at 11:00am ET/8:00am PT.
Released in 2018, Kingdom Come: Deliverance is an open-world game set in medieval Bohemia. It quickly became a fan favorite for its realistic world, challenging combat, and non-linear story.
This free offer is one of the best Epic Games Store giveaways in recent weeks, especially since the game’s sequel is coming soon.
Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 will be released on February 4th, 2025. The sequel will build on the story, combat, and world from the first game, making this a great time to experience the original for free.
Set in the heart of Europe, the game’s story begins with the death of Emperor Charles IV, which plunges Bohemia into chaos. You play as Henry, a blacksmith’s son whose village is destroyed by a mercenary raid. With nothing left, Henry joins a resistance to fight for the future of Bohemia.
The game features a massive open world, challenging combat, and a non-linear story where your choices matter. You can solve quests in different ways and face the consequences of your actions.
If you haven’t played Kingdom Come: Deliverance yet, now’s the perfect time to grab it for free before the sequel arrives next month.
