If you want to know which Epic free games will be available each week, make sure to keep checking this article every few days, as it will list each title as soon as it becomes available in the EGS marketplace for free.

Cat Quest 2 and Orcs Must Die 3 are free on the EGS now. Cat Quest 2 takes a similar approach to its predecessor with one simple addition. You can now play with a friend as each of you take the role of a cat and a dog. Sticking to the theme of co-op Orcs must Die 3 takes a fun Tower Defense approach where you and your friends shall slay a horde of Orcs.
