The Epic Games Store has started giving away the next game. It’s a sci-fi title described by players as a curious mix of exploration and strategy, sometimes called a “bagel” in online chatter for its roundabout, looping feel. The promo runs until March 2, 7 p.m. Moscow time, but for audiences in Canada and the United States, the event translates to a time window that is easy to track in local schedules and calendars. Free games on major platforms often become talking points across gaming communities, and this one is no exception as players prepare to claim another free experience without spending a penny.
In this title, players are tasked with exploring abandoned starships using a fleet of drones. The control scheme is unusual: commands flow through a text-based command line, which adds a retro charm while demanding precise planning and quick decision-making. As progress is made, the encounters evolve in complexity. Dangerous creatures lurk on many ships, which means players must balance risk and resource management while uncovering the story scattered through derelict vessels. The ambiance blends quiet space horror with tense, methodical exploration, inviting players to think like engineers and tacticians at once.
The next free release is teased as the emergence of the industry, hinting at a broader future in which indie titles and experimental projects continue to find a wider audience through periodic giveaways. For fans who want to stay informed, following official channels and community hubs becomes valuable as a way to discover similar opportunities and discoverable gems.
You can track promotions and freebies in dedicated groups and channels, where the pulse of new drops is discussed. The community often celebrates unusual releases with humor and curiosity, especially when a title defies the standard shooter or action tropes and leans into strategy and atmosphere.
- Freebie: A visual-novel style experience is being offered on PC, which cannot be purchased on certain storefronts. It features unabashed, uncensored storytelling that some players will find surprising and memorable.
- Freebie: A bundle of three space-themed titles, valued collectively, will be distributed on PC. These games are marketed as a set awaiting access, not always available through traditional channels in some regions.
- Freebie: The cult classic TES 3: Morrowind is available again on PC, a title that sometimes disappears from shop shelves and digital catalogs but returns through limited-time promotions.
Overall, these kinds of promotions give gamers in North America a peek at the breadth of PC gaming, from indie experiments to long-loved classics. They encourage experimentation and a readiness to try something outside the latest blockbuster releases, highlighting how digital storefronts periodically refresh their catalogs with no-cost options.
End of the day, the ecosystem thrives on spontaneous giveaways that bring new players into contact with games they might not have otherwise explored. For some, these moments become a doorway to broader discovery—an invitation to expand the library without financial risk and to engage with a community that values sharing and conversation around fresh experiences.
Note: the promotion cadence and the availability windows are subject to change. Interested players should stay tuned to official channels and trusted community sources to confirm eligibility and timing. (VG Times)
