The Epic Games Store free games rotation continues, and the latest update delivers a strong penultimate batch for September 2025. While players can currently grab three games worth over $60, the next lineup dropping on September 18 at 15:00 UTC includes a standout award-winner alongside a serene cult classic.
The current Epic Games Store free games bundle is live now
Right now, users can snag Ghostrunner 2, The Battle of Polytopia, and Monument Valley 2 for absolutely nothing. These games span cyberpunk action, minimalist strategy, and meditative mobile puzzle design, making this one of the more diverse bundles in recent months.
This trio remains free until September 18, after which Epic will swap in its final batch of the month.
Pico-Pal is a Game Boy Color-style handheld with a 1:1 IPS screen, RP2350B chip, and Wi-Fi, launching soon on Crowd Supply.
Project Winter leads next week’s free game duo
Starting September 18, Epic will feature Project Winter, the multi-award-winning social survival game from 2019. Set in a snowy, hostile environment, players are split between survivors and traitors. While survivors scramble to repair equipment and gather supplies, traitors work to sabotage them, often through well-timed deception and sabotage.
Project Winter thrives on teamwork, distrust, and betrayal, making it a natural hit with fans of games like Among Us or Deceit. The game currently sits at an 87% positive rating from over 4,700 Steam players.
What to expect from next week’s Epic Games Store free games:
- Project Winter ($9.99) – Survival + social deception
- Samorost 2 ($4.99) – Hand-drawn point-and-click adventure
Samorost 2 offers a slower, stranger pace
In contrast to Project Winter’s tension, Samorost 2 delivers a more calming experience. Originally released in 2009 by Amanita Design, this hand-drawn point-and-click game follows a gnome on a mission to rescue his kidnapped dog. It’s visually rich and musically soothing if narratively sparse.
Currently rated 88% positive on Steam, the game is praised for its whimsy and mood, even if it’s a bit short.
With these two free games landing soon, the Epic Games Store free games program continues to cater to a broad range of tastes just in time for the September finale.
