Epic Games Store Debuts Free Game Program and Third-Party Deals

Epic Games Store Mobile Gets a Massive Upgrade

The Epic Games Store mobile app is undergoing a significant transformation. This update includes the addition of nearly 20 third-party games and the highly anticipated launch of their free games program for Android globally and iOS within the European Union.

This expansion brings a wave of new titles to the mobile storefront, highlighted by the inclusion of Epic's popular free games program. This month's free offering is Dungeon of the Endless: Apogee, available until February 20th, followed by Bloons TD6.

A key focus of this update is cross-platform integration. Users can now seamlessly access their Epic accounts and game libraries across both Android and iOS devices. An automatic update feature ensures game libraries remain current.

A Strategic Move

Epic Games' commitment to its mobile storefront is evident. While facing competition from established platforms like Steam on PC, the introduction of free games on mobile presents a compelling strategy for attracting users. Their developer-friendly revenue-sharing model remains a significant differentiator in their ongoing dispute with Apple.
