According to a reputable leaker, the Epic Games Store free mystery game for Wednesday, December 20 is fighting game DNF Duel. The Epic Games Store free mystery game promotion is back, giving EGS users the chance to greatly expand their digital libraries. However, this year's Epic Games Store free mystery game giveaway is so far a little different from past versions of the event.
In previous years, the Epic Games Stores free mystery game promotion gave users a new free game every day. This year, the first free mystery game is available for an entire week. Until December 13, Epic Games Store users can snag Destiny 2: Legacy Collection, which gives them access to three of the game's expansion packs (Shadowkeep, Beyond Light, and The Witch Queen). Come December 20, Destiny 2: Legacy Collection will be swapped out for the next free mystery game, though its identity is still a secret.
Epic Games Store: A Comprehensive List Of Every Free Game It's Had To Date
Here's a list of all the games that have been made free on the Epic Games Store. You have until January 15 to get the current free game.
Epic Games Store users will have to wait until Wednesday, December 20 to know for sure what the next Epic Games Store free mystery game is, but a reputable leaker may have let the cat out of the bag early. According to Dealabs' billbil-kun, there are "high chances" that fighting game DNF Duel will be the Epic Games Store free mystery game for December 20. They cautioned that they don't have "definitive proof" that DNF Duel will be the next free game, so fans should take the claim with a grain of salt.
For those unfamiliar with DNF Duel, the game is a spin-off of the Dungeon & Fighter series. Developed by Arc System Works (of BlazBlue, Dragon Ball FighterZ, and Guilty Gear fame), Eighting, and Neople, DNF Duel first released in 2022 to mostly positive reviews. DNF Duel was even nominated for Best Fighting Game at The Game Awards 2022, though it ultimately lost to MultiVersus from Player First Games.
Epic Games Store Free Mystery Games
- Destiny 2: Legacy Collection (December 13 - December 20)
While Epic Games Store users wait to see if DNF Duel is truly the free Epic Games Store game for December 20, they will want to take note of a change to Destiny 2: Legacy Collection's availability. When Destiny 2: Legacy Collection was first revealed as the first Epic Games Store free mystery game, it was said that it would only be available until December 19. It seems that date was in error, as the Epic Games Store has been updated to confirm that Destiny 2: Legacy Collection is up for grabs until December 20. At that point, it will be replaced by next week's free game, whether that's DNF Duel as predicted by billbil-kun or another game entirely.
