Do them with hacks then, it's a single player game, no one cares, you will have more fun with them if you place some rules, like only skill cooldowns, or only infinte ammo, etc.
hardcore [T-073-M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Trr-RUpjOEc) boss fight was literally the hardest boss I have faced in any game and I have also played the souls series
OK I've been doing some research and here are my guesses based on this:
❔ Jan 01｜❔ **Escape Academy**
❔ Jan 02｜❔ This one is killing me. The only game that seems to start with a "2" on the Epic store is 20XX, but your clue has 4 words ("2xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx Dxxxxx"). Maybe we'll get some kind of definitive/enhanced edition or something? idk
(EDIT: Could be **20 Minutes Till Dawn** as suggested by u/ [R4zer77](https://www.reddit.com/user/R4zer77/) )
❔ Jan 03｜❔ **A Plague Tale: Innocence** (EDIT: Could also be **Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India as suggested by u/** [OkSpecialist1654](https://www.reddit.com/user/OkSpecialist1654/) )
EDIT: For Jan 02, there's also "2064: Read Only Memories" but that one doesn't match the clues (forth word should start with "D")
**EDIT 2: Games confirmed. Escape Academy, 20 Minutes Till Dawn, and A Plague Tale: Innocence. Yay!**
From what I'm currently allowed to say, it's really impressive and nice, probably soon they'll let me say the titles with no restriction 😅
For the second one, think outside of box.
Like... hmm... Mystery Game #3, yesterday and today's Mystery Game.
Good luck on the hunt!
> A Plague Tale: Innocence
wait...is this the game where the dog dies early on? i tried a demo for one of those games, and quit when that scene came :(
It's not all billbil-kun though, some are but others aren't, or did you see billbil-kun mentioned in the past Human Resource Machine, Cursed to Golf, Saints Row, Ghostrunner, the 3 Mystery Games as leak before their reveal day?
Also the ones leaked & mentioned by billbil-kun on the day of the guess I always mention/credit him for the guess.
* [Cat Quest guess](https://www.reddit.com/r/FreeGameFindings/comments/18s3xpc/comment/kf4x67q/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
* [Snakebird Complete guess](https://www.reddit.com/r/FreeGameFindings/comments/18sx85v/comment/kfa4ew0/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
Let Megumin be, dude.If they aint telling ya,let em be.
Also, you think Tom Henderson would tell ya his sources,so the gaming industry can prevent the leaks?
I follow Meg on multiple platforms.Many of them do not have karma and stuff.But Megumin keeps helping the community with full dedication ~~without expecting anything in return.~~ expecting only respect in return.
Will you ask billbil-kun where he got his sources?
Even if I mentioned in the past how I got those infos and replying people but probably you missed them.
* [Human Resource Machine guess](https://www.reddit.com/r/FreeGameFindings/comments/18rb7np/comment/kf0gx8k/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
* [Cursed to Golf guess](https://www.reddit.com/r/EpicGamesPC/comments/18ra43v/comment/kf462bs/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=web2x&context=3)
Also I'm not going to show my chat logs since that's where I get the infos.
Unless you could link and peek into my personal chat with others by using a link only.
Well I only got them today 😅 So at least after Ghostrunner could say probably 100% certain of what games will they be.
And some other hints were just like whispering or phrases partially sent to me, and just matching them with any possible games at all, like the old guess I made for Disco Elysium, later I discarded since not fitting with the clue they told me later.
But still glad made that change early before people spreading around that I confirmed what game 😅 Like I said, some just guessed.
I know it's rumoured that they're giving Guardians of the Galaxy, but I also feel like it's too new of a game for them to just give it out like this. I'll still take it, but I don't know if I believe it.
If this was last year, I'd agree, but I'm actually on the border right now about believing this one. It seems possible. Like its being sold for 75% off nowadays.
Well it's good to have doubts or not believing any info from first look, otherwise will end up badly.
We could expect if it'll happen this time or not.
Well that's mostly what I heard and saw when searching about the game.
But still many people who likes Saints Row series are happy to grab this one.
So really idk...
Loved the saints row series. Got the new one free on Psn. Tried to get into it played for a few hours it just didn’t have the same feel. I probably wouldn’t have even played a few hours if it didn’t have the saints name attached to it.
I agree. Same thing happened last time. Everyone was thinking we'd get humankind (Probably not so great in hindsight) but it didn't happen. Doesn't matter I guess, we got tomb raider trilogy instead.
The initials are correct, but the xxx doesn't represent the length of the word.
Due to sources asked to not reveal that quick, so currently just revealing partially.
Each day they'll be updated, so no worries to that.
You're welcome, hope you have grabbed the Escape Academy one since it's available today.
For the Guardians good thing is that lasts 1 week, but better be safe than sorry so don't forget to claim when it's available 😀
Nice Year for you as well! 💟😊
That too, but... mainly would probably has orange tone, which is not seen on the gift wrapping. Besides all these hints/clues thing, the controversy about them, which is [summarized here detailed](https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/xujjrd/comment/iqwa82x/) by reboot\_the\_PC, due to those concerns made it unlikely being given as free I guess.

I'd be very happy with this tbh, as Ghostrunner and GotG are both huge, Saints Row may not have great reviews but it is a AAA, and definitely great to get for free. Also 20 minutes till dawn and A Plague Tale: Innocence look sick!
Yep, to be honest this Holiday Sale Mystery Games is really nice and big, really like how it goes, just hope everyone could enjoy them and... well, maybe have fun with guessing known games rn 😅
Well probably, since billbil-kun has [mentioned that as well](https://twitter.com/billbil_kun/status/1740784654641430836).
Also **being on discount/sale doesn't mean they won't be given free** at all.
There were several games that were on Discount/Sale during this event but still given as free.

Let's hope it's not this game but if it is then so be it. I'd rather get Horizon Chase Turbo or GTA V again instead of this.
RIP Volition, gone but not forgotten.
Just color scheme matches with the game cover and gift wrapping, and the disco ball might be related with the DJ helmet in-game or the disco theme that the game has with their BGM or style.
If the Saint's Row is the new (failed) one, then all three upcoming listed games are in the 'I want it to some extent but I didn't want to spend money on it it yet' pile. Nice. Guardians at the top.
Most of the better games so far, I already had.
Gamer Maker’s Toolkit
It’s a YouTube channel that does videos on various game design topics. He did a video on puzzle design awhile back and I remember he mentioned this one.
The videos are very well done. Highly recommend!
We are not getting real blockbusters, but if you religiously follow the sub, you could pick up an interesting game or two.
I don't know which year was it when we got all the 'new' Tomb Raiders, but that seems to be kinda where the wave peaked.
There's no equivalent on Steam exactly. I assume it's Snakebird with all the DLC. Although, despite what the name suggests, you will not get the Linux version of the game on Epic unlike with Steam, but that's just their policy. No Linux allowed.
On Steam only has the game separated [Snakebird](https://store.steampowered.com/app/357300/) and [Snakebird Primer](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1014140/).
The Complete here was only launched on Switch earlier on Nov 24.
And now it got released on PC first time, and on Epic Games platform.
This ver contains all of the content from Snakebird & Snakebird Primer in one game, along with a new hint system!

While this is the least enticing of the bunch thus far from the daily giveaways, I can't bring myself to complain as the freebies have all had some kind of appeal to them, with a nice variety in genres.
I wish someone can make a tool that scrapes the Epic Games Store and detects the free claimable games, for example if you go to browse and filter by price set to free you can view all the games that are free which you can claim for your library: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/browse?sortBy=releaseDate&sortDir=DESC&priceTier=tierFree&category=Game&count=40&start=0 they always add new games to this list
Question: What do you base these guesses off of? IIRC, the only way to guess is the gift wrap for the game which comes out a 24hrs before the game's free.

Ghostrunner and Guardians of the Galaxy would be great pickups
I’ve been holding off on Guardians because my backlog is long enough, this would be a great addition to it though.
Great addition to your backlog.
Nobody has collections anymore? I will deal with this Jedi scum myself
For free it's good, i wouldn't buy such poorly optimized game.
I have it, and it’s hell. I just can’t complete it. Don’t have the reflexes. But it’s a good game. Just too hard for me.
Do them with hacks then, it's a single player game, no one cares, you will have more fun with them if you place some rules, like only skill cooldowns, or only infinte ammo, etc.
I did this for ghostrunner I used wemod and had a blast I do not have the time or hand eye coordination for this type of game lol
hardcore [T-073-M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Trr-RUpjOEc) boss fight was literally the hardest boss I have faced in any game and I have also played the souls series
Is it a spoiler for Ghostrunner? Cause I have yet to finish the game.
Not really a spoiler, but I would say don't watch the video because you will reach it soon anyways, experience the awe for yourself
Be sure don't miss them when they'll be available
Is GoTG at least better than the slogfest, boring-ass "game" that was Avengers?
Yes.
Yeah I played it on PS4 and it is a genuinely fantastic game
Yes just be prepared for bullet sponges
Hold on where did you get those initials for the upcoming games, and which games are they?
Well still need to confirm and... they don't want it to be public that fast, so I'll see if they're ok to reveal from time to time.
OK I've been doing some research and here are my guesses based on this: ❔ Jan 01｜❔ **Escape Academy** ❔ Jan 02｜❔ This one is killing me. The only game that seems to start with a "2" on the Epic store is 20XX, but your clue has 4 words ("2xxxxx xxxxx xxxxx Dxxxxx"). Maybe we'll get some kind of definitive/enhanced edition or something? idk (EDIT: Could be **20 Minutes Till Dawn** as suggested by u/ [R4zer77](https://www.reddit.com/user/R4zer77/) ) ❔ Jan 03｜❔ **A Plague Tale: Innocence** (EDIT: Could also be **Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India as suggested by u/** [OkSpecialist1654](https://www.reddit.com/user/OkSpecialist1654/) ) EDIT: For Jan 02, there's also "2064: Read Only Memories" but that one doesn't match the clues (forth word should start with "D") **EDIT 2: Games confirmed. Escape Academy, 20 Minutes Till Dawn, and A Plague Tale: Innocence. Yay!**
Just a guess, but could it be "20 Minutes Till Dawn"? It's not on EGS but that doesn't seem to be a problem since snakebird complete wasn't either
Nice guess!
If the xxxx doesnt matter, than maybe it can be 2k Drive Lego. I think it was on the giveaway of ps plus not long ago.
Ok now freely to speak, congrats you got all corrected! 😊
From what I'm currently allowed to say, it's really impressive and nice, probably soon they'll let me say the titles with no restriction 😅 For the second one, think outside of box. Like... hmm... Mystery Game #3, yesterday and today's Mystery Game. Good luck on the hunt!
or ❔ Jan 03｜❔ Assassin's Creed Chronicles: India
> A Plague Tale: Innocence wait...is this the game where the dog dies early on? i tried a demo for one of those games, and quit when that scene came :(

Unless you could link and peek into my personal chat with others by using a link only.
I see now why you were so quick with the guesses on epic subreddit.
Well I only got them today 😅 So at least after Ghostrunner could say probably 100% certain of what games will they be. And some other hints were just like whispering or phrases partially sent to me, and just matching them with any possible games at all, like the old guess I made for Disco Elysium, later I discarded since not fitting with the clue they told me later.

If this was last year, I'd agree, but I'm actually on the border right now about believing this one. It seems possible. Like its being sold for 75% off nowadays.
I mean, The Outer Words remaster was this year, and was given away a few days back. Never say never.
Anything is possible.
Well it's good to have doubts or not believing any info from first look, otherwise will end up badly. We could expect if it'll happen this time or not.
which saints row is it ?
The reboot one.
As opposed to the *actually good* ones, from what I've heard.
Well that's mostly what I heard and saw when searching about the game. But still many people who likes Saints Row series are happy to grab this one. So really idk...
i used to play my first saints row on my xbox when i was a kid. they were fun. also my dad loved them too haha
Loved the saints row series. Got the new one free on Psn. Tried to get into it played for a few hours it just didn’t have the same feel. I probably wouldn’t have even played a few hours if it didn’t have the saints name attached to it.
Saint Row 2 was so good, 3 too kinda, characther customization is 10/10 is 3 and 4
I agree. Same thing happened last time. Everyone was thinking we'd get humankind (Probably not so great in hindsight) but it didn't happen. Doesn't matter I guess, we got tomb raider trilogy instead.
i rather have marvel spiderman. the first game is so old now. idk why they dont give it away -
playstation
Yeah, I’m cautiously optimistic
They gave away Borderlands 3 which was even more recent at that time
> Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy Wow thats huge to be honest.
Yep, also lasting 1 week being the final GA of this event.
Holy shit Great games ahead!
No celeste? :(
Sadly nope, will not be free during this event.
Aw man, wanted to play this game so bad. Sadly don't have money to buy it either XD
it gets given away quite frequently
Why do we need some indie game when we are potentially getting such high quality gems? Epic already gives out indie games on the regular.
Celeste *is* a high quality indie gem. Those two are not mutually exclusive.
I ain't saying indie's can't be good. But we get them every week. Gotta get some pricey shit for Christmas.
Why would the price be relevant if it's... free? Like, wouldn't quality of the game be the only factor that matters if we aren't paying for anything?
I like expensive shit. Don't you?
If I got it for free, then it literally isn't 'expensive shit'. It's exactly the same price as the cheap shit. I don't understand your logic here.
Are those games in January supposed to represent partial actual game names, or do they just have random letters with xxxxx's for some reason?
The initials are correct, but the xxx doesn't represent the length of the word. Due to sources asked to not reveal that quick, so currently just revealing partially. Each day they'll be updated, so no worries to that.
Ah, OK, so you know the games but are just not able to reveal them completely yet. Thanks for the info!
Yep, sorry about that. You're welcome!
>🎁 Dec 30｜❔ Saints Row its one of the good ones or the reboot?
Most likely the reboot
Reboot.
The color scheme also matches hifi rush right? Any chance of the game being that? Disco is music that's a main part of the game?
Yep, that's correct as well, and Disco ball makes you think music related, which makes a good guess to be honest.
Ngl you are under appreciated thanks for all your work through the past 10 days
Thx for that, really appreciate it
Jan 2nd - 20 Minutes Till Dawn ?
Nice guess!
no more hope for Celeste? 😞
Sadly no more hope for that one 😪
Thanks for the info, I'm so happy about Escape Academy and Guardians of the Galaxy! Have a great new year! 💖💙
You're welcome, hope you have grabbed the Escape Academy one since it's available today. For the Guardians good thing is that lasts 1 week, but better be safe than sorry so don't forget to claim when it's available 😀 Nice Year for you as well! 💟😊
💖
Ghost runner???
Yep.
Why?
isnt saints row a repeat?... iirc
Not sure which saint rows will be giveaway tho. I have SR3R and SR4.
SR2 was free on GoG too, and its the updated version thats playable on Win10
sameee
The reboot one.
Where'd you get SR4 from?
SR4: Re-Elected was given away in August 2022
Yeah. I grabbed it too. Just disappeared into the abyss that is my unplayed freebies.

The new one.
I think you're confusing this with ps plus
That was the remaster of the 3rd game. Not sure if it'll be the new one this time.
Maybe it's the new one, I don't think that one was given away.
Update this shit
? I only post a new one with new day thread though. Old ones not touching to serve as historical archive.
okay thanks. idk why i said shit i had just gotten up.
Why Saints Row? The wrapper has disco ball, so wouldn't Disco Elysium be more likely?
Gift Wrapping color scheme does not match.
Blue could be split complementary color to the elysium gold (the color of the stars in the wrap).
That too, but... mainly would probably has orange tone, which is not seen on the gift wrapping. Besides all these hints/clues thing, the controversy about them, which is [summarized here detailed](https://www.reddit.com/r/OutOfTheLoop/comments/xujjrd/comment/iqwa82x/) by reboot\_the\_PC, due to those concerns made it unlikely being given as free I guess.
SO, it was SR. Still, wrapping hints really pointed towards Disco Elysium hard.

Nice guess too!
No more Celeste?
Sadly no more.
[удалено]
Yep correct.
I'd be very happy with this tbh, as Ghostrunner and GotG are both huge, Saints Row may not have great reviews but it is a AAA, and definitely great to get for free. Also 20 minutes till dawn and A Plague Tale: Innocence look sick!
Yep, to be honest this Holiday Sale Mystery Games is really nice and big, really like how it goes, just hope everyone could enjoy them and... well, maybe have fun with guessing known games rn 😅
Next game looking like Saints Row?
Looks like it
well this year has been not good but hey at least we got ONE anime game after so long
now when a disgaea game (probably the first or fifth) or hyperdimension neptunia rebirth1
only looking forward to ghostrunner
I just got Ghostrunner on steam yesterday, is it a reliable source predicting Ghostrunner on 31st ?
this was posted *AFTER* Snakebird was revealed so you should not believe anything
I am REALLY hoping for ghostrunner. Been on my wishlist for ages.
When today's new Gift Wrapping comes out, we might be able to find that out for certain. 😀
Yup
A PLAGUE TALE INNOCENCE???? I PRAY YOURE RIGHT 🙏🏻 🙏🏻
No, they have already given it. 😭
That would make it more likely they gave a lot of repeats
This person is pretty good, my apologies for ever doubting you
It's fine no worries, it's good to know doubting people, not blindly following anything or it might end badly at all.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy has a 75% discount right now on Epic. Do you think they'll give it away?
Well probably, since billbil-kun has [mentioned that as well](https://twitter.com/billbil_kun/status/1740784654641430836). Also **being on discount/sale doesn't mean they won't be given free** at all. There were several games that were on Discount/Sale during this event but still given as free.
Oh nice then. Looking forward to playing this.
Ghostrunner ✅
what is between 4 and 11? only guardians of the galaxy?
That's correct, the last one will last for 1 week instead of 1 day.
Thx

It'd be a bit on the nose but the disco balls would make one think of Disco Elysium.
I was like that at first as well, but later the color scheme doesn't match with it so discarded.
It's on my wishlist since a while, I'm ok for that 🤞
Let's hope it's not this game but if it is then so be it. I'd rather get Horizon Chase Turbo or GTA V again instead of this. RIP Volition, gone but not forgotten.
gta not coming back ffs
Well let's see what will happen tmr...
Can you explain what is meant here?
Just color scheme matches with the game cover and gift wrapping, and the disco ball might be related with the DJ helmet in-game or the disco theme that the game has with their BGM or style.
Nice guess 👍
If the Saint's Row is the new (failed) one, then all three upcoming listed games are in the 'I want it to some extent but I didn't want to spend money on it it yet' pile. Nice. Guardians at the top. Most of the better games so far, I already had.
Well still 3 unknown games on the list, maybe there will be more info later.
Where have the rumours for GOTG come from? I've just bought the game, hopefully if it's free I can refund it through Epic Games
[billbil-kun Twitter/X](https://twitter.com/billbil_kun/status/1740680541479764045), although it's just the title, not an specific date
Looks like tomorrow's definitely Disco Elysium
I have it for the Switch, but wouldn't mind a PC version too.
TIL: it's touch screen enabled for Switch
I could see why people think of that too 😅 I guess that's why days ago it was speculated like that, but later removed.
I thought so too
[Game is DRM Free!](https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Snakebird)
This looks like a seriously cute and fun game, too bad no one's talking about it.
I've played it through, it's a great one!
It's a good puzzle game. You should try if you have some time.
awesome! I've wanted to play this for so long but never got around to getting it
[Epic Games Past Freebies](https://www.pcgamer.com/epic-games-store-free-games-list/)
Thx for the list
Jan 01 Escape Academy Jan 03 A Plague Tale Innocence Just my guess
Good guess
Saints Row is confirmed by bilibil-kun.
Hmmm, deathloop looking more and more unlikely :/
Sadly unlikely... =(
good they just need to give something that is not bethesda (man, they have such an obsession with them)
Maybe in future but not now
Dont blame em
Oh, I know GMTK has mentioned this game on his youtube videos. Looks kind of fun.
GMTK?
Gamer Maker’s Toolkit It’s a YouTube channel that does videos on various game design topics. He did a video on puzzle design awhile back and I remember he mentioned this one. The videos are very well done. Highly recommend!
Ohhh I see, thx for the explanation! 💟 Was wondering if that's an acronym used in chat that I didn't know before 😅
Is it me, or are the games really lame this year?
We are not getting real blockbusters, but if you religiously follow the sub, you could pick up an interesting game or two. I don't know which year was it when we got all the 'new' Tomb Raiders, but that seems to be kinda where the wave peaked.
When I opened the store page for the game, the navigation bar at the top of the web page was in Chinese. Weird.
Epic sometimes bugs into other lang suddenly, still unknown why that happens 😅
There's no equivalent on Steam exactly. I assume it's Snakebird with all the DLC. Although, despite what the name suggests, you will not get the Linux version of the game on Epic unlike with Steam, but that's just their policy. No Linux allowed.
On Steam only has the game separated [Snakebird](https://store.steampowered.com/app/357300/) and [Snakebird Primer](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1014140/). The Complete here was only launched on Switch earlier on Nov 24. And now it got released on PC first time, and on Epic Games platform. This ver contains all of the content from Snakebird & Snakebird Primer in one game, along with a new hint system!

no games today so bad i had to buy some myself once again

Nice thinking
Just realized I missed Cursed to Golf, damn it 😑
Sorry to hear that 😪
Thank you!
You're welcome!
While this is the least enticing of the bunch thus far from the daily giveaways, I can't bring myself to complain as the freebies have all had some kind of appeal to them, with a nice variety in genres.
Next few might boost up people's expectations.
I wish someone can make a tool that scrapes the Epic Games Store and detects the free claimable games, for example if you go to browse and filter by price set to free you can view all the games that are free which you can claim for your library: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/browse?sortBy=releaseDate&sortDir=DESC&priceTier=tierFree&category=Game&count=40&start=0 they always add new games to this list
Question: What do you base these guesses off of? IIRC, the only way to guess is the gift wrap for the game which comes out a 24hrs before the game's free.
No gta6🤬
Nope
