As we know, every week, the Epic Games Store will always distribute free games to its fans. The game itself is arguably less popular, but that doesn’t mean it’s a bad game.
You see, there’s nothing wrong with claiming the game, even if we don’t play it. What’s more, the Epic Games Store will also occasionally share popular games, such as Red Redemption, GTA V, and the like that were previously gone.
So, with this Free Games Weekly Update (List) article, I hope you always know what games are currently free and which are coming. So, if you already understand what this article was made for, follow this week’s free game.

Those were the weekly free games provided by Epic Games that you can claim right away. However, for those who want to claim against the free games above, the method is straightforward. You just need to enter your Epic Games account into the service. Now, find the game you want to claim, and done.
Usually, you need a few minutes to make a claim against this game because the servers are busy. However, you don’t need to worry again now. Also, the difference now is that we need to verify the captcha if we want to claim the free game. This is quite reasonable, considering that so many people use bots to claim games for free. So, Epic Games felt that it was quite disturbing and became this verification feature.
