When the Death Stranding giveaway went up, there were so many players interested in getting the game that the server crashed, leaving many unable to claim it. The free games for December 27 & 28 have been leaked. Thus far the biggest treat was Death Stranding: Directors Cut, but even more giveaways are coming, and it seems like the next two have leaked. The Epic Games store was mostly unavailable for most people for several hours after the announcement, but it seems to now be up and running, with just small slowdowns here and there as players rush to grab their free games.Just like last year, the Epic Games Store 15 Days of Christmas has been a big hit with gamers.

Epic Games is offering 15 days of free games this year, starting on December 15th, and continuing every day through December 30th.

Hideo Kojima’s Death Stranding is currently downloadable and save-for-ever, at no charge, but make sure you act quickly if you want a copy, since offers will only be around for a couple of hours longer (8 am Pacific/11 am Eastern on December 26). We're currently investigating an issue that may cause players to be unable to login to Epic Games services. Death Stranding is free through the end of Christmas day on the Epic Games Store, and the other new title is coming December 26th while the promotion continues. The game was offered free of charge in their Christmas promo, leading to hundreds of thousands of downloads. That is still a great deal, and owners of the base game can get the directors cut for only $6, taking advantage of the Steam Christmas sale going on.Įven better, an error initially appeared to be offering Death Strandings directors cut and more recent DLC free, not Death Stranding. For Epic Games Store users who wanted a directors cut version of Death Stranding, but missed out on its initial free availability, the update is currently 40% off and costs only $6. That means that everyone who has an Epic account can now head over to the site and get their hands on their own copy of the highly-acclaimed Death Stranding. The proper version of Death Stranding is available now, servers are no longer completely down, and logins are locked down for an increasing number of Epic Games Store users. The best thing that is priced at anything is a free one, and impatient gamers proved this to be true as The Epic Games Store experienced server crashes and technical issues all through Christmas and afterward when the platform offered Death Stranding for free.

The surge in Epic Games Store users looking to pick up Death Stranding for free has led to a few curious issues for the storefront.
