Where It All Began: Free Game Giveaways

The world of PC gaming has been forever changed by Epic Games’ weekly free game giveaways. Gamers eagerly anticipate these drops, which can easily pad out their libraries with nostalgic classics and hidden gems. This strategy not only draws attention to Epic’s store but also positions it as a competitor against established giants like Steam—despite some criticism regarding its lack of features.

Expanding to Mobile: What to Expect

Fast forward to the present: Epic Games has decided to take this winning formula to mobile devices. Following an announcement at the Seattle Unreal Fest, the publisher revealed that free game giveaways would launch on its mobile storefront for both iOS and Android in Q4 2024. This move is particularly targeted at the European market but signals Epic Games’ commitment to expanding its reach.

A Win for Gamers and Developers Alike

General Manager Steve Allison shared insights that illuminate the dual benefits of this program. The free games initiative, paired with the introduction of third-party apps, is poised to provide valuable content for players and stimulate rapid growth for developers. As Allison put it, “We’re gonna have some awesome stuff for players that will also be awesome for developers because it’ll help us scale really quickly.” With this ambitious plan, Epic Games is not just looking to enhance the player experience; they aim to reshape the landscape of mobile gaming as we know it.
