Epic Games Store Free Games for September 2023
- Spelldrifter (September 7 - September 14)
- 911 Operator (September 14 - September 21)
911 Operator is the exact kind of game one would expect. It's all about being a 911 operator. It seems many critics didn't think that the game pulled this concept off properly, as 911 Operator is one of the lowest-rated free games ever given away through the Epic Games Store, sitting with an abysmal 58 overall rating. Despite the low review scores, Epic Games Store users may still want to give 911 Operator a shot, as they have no reason not to claim it and formulate their own opinion on the game.
As is typical with the Epic Games Store free games, 911 Operator will be free for exactly one week. On September 21, it will be removed from the Epic Games Store free games lineup and replaced with some other game, though it's impossible to say at this time what that game will be. Fans will find out next week, though, as the Epic Games Store announces the free games a week in advance.
