The Epic Games Store continues to give away a free game each week, and this week is another nice find with a price that can’t be beaten. Every Thursday at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, Epic offers at least one free PC game (and sometimes even as many as two or three). All you need to do to claim the free games is create a free Epic account and enable two-factor authentication. You have a week to add the freebies to your library before the new one(s) take their place. At this point, Epic has given away hundreds of free games, and there’s no sign that the program will stop any time soon. The company has also extended its freebies to Android devices, and you can claim a free game every week here as well. We keep this article up to date weekly to highlight both the current free games and next week’s offerings.

Current free game at Epic
This week, you can get the Platinum Edition of Civilization 6 for free from the Epic Games Store. While this entry in the long-running 4X turn-based strategy game series is quite old–it was first released in 2016–you are getting the definitive edition here as it includes numerous gameplay mechanics to substantially enhance the experience, alongside other extras like the Rise & Fall and Gathering Storm expansions.
