There’s a buzz in the gaming world as Orcs Must Die! 3 is now up for grabs at no cost on the Epic Games Store, but only for a short period. Enthusiasts have until 10:00am CST on Monday, December 30, to claim their free copy. This is part of Epic’s festive giveaway event, and there are four more mystery games lined up for the season.
Throughout December, the Epic Games Store has been in a generous mood, offering a slew of different games. Just yesterday, they featured Kill Knight, a fresh isometric shooter that launched earlier this year. The line-up has been quite diverse, including gems like Control, Ghostrunner 2, and Dredge. Control has been the only repeat gift until now from the Epic’s holiday bonanza.
Currently, anyone can nab Orcs Must Die! 3 without spending a dime. Originally hitting the market in 2020, this game was warmly received and holds a commendable 77 on OpenCritic. Although the expansions aren’t part of the freebie, they’re discounted by 50% for those interested. Keep in mind, the clock is ticking to claim Orcs Must Die! 3 for free—head to the Epic Games Store before it disappears on December 30 at 10:00am CST.
