Epic Games Store Free Games List for 2021
The Epic Games Store has taken the world by storm in late 2018. Free Games have been an integral part of the company’s DNA. This trend will likely continue through 2021. Epic’s generous approach allows you to easily access many great titles, some of which can take many hours. It also draws more users to its store by helping to establish large libraries of titles.
Over the past year, the offerings included indies (both popular and obscure) as well as AAA releases such Elite Dangerous, Civilization 6, and even GTA V, which notoriously shut down the storefront’s servers. In 2021, the Epic Games Store will offer free entry to the list. These games include players managing and building dino parks as well as a rogue-lite adventure. Here’s the Epic Games Store list of free games for 2021.
In the past, Epic Games Store offered one or more free games each week. Epic confirmed that Epic will continue this practice through 2021. To add these games to your library, you will need an EGS account. Once you have created your account, you can go to the store page for the game and follow the same steps as when you purchased it.
While you won’t be charged for the game, you will need to add it to your library during the free week. If you do not get the game, there are a few other ways to get it at a discount throughout the year through the Epic Games Store. Although some of these freebies have been given away multiple time, this is not a reliable method.

Jurassic World Evolution

As you pursue specific traits, you can not only place buildings, manage staff and manage finances, but also bioengineer your dinosaurs. You’ll be able to observe how the dinos behave in their natural habitats and when they are sick or endangered. Make sure you have strong fences to keep them inside.
Crying Suns

Crying Suns takes inspiration from works such as Foundation and Dune, and you take on the role of a commander of a space fleet exploring what remains of an empire that has fallen. The title’s 300+ story events help to explain its mysterious universe better, but tactical battles as well as procedural generation keep each run fresh.
Star Wars Battlefront II Celebration Edition

Star Wars Battlefront II Celebration Edition contains all content from the base game, as well as any subsequent free updates. There are also a wide range of cosmetic items that can be purchased with in-game credits. The game’s grind and ability to tie power progression to loot boxes quickly made it a cult favorite at launch. However, many people now consider it a worthy successor. It is also one of Star Wars’ best-sounding and most beautiful ways to experience the franchise. It’s free and available on Epic Games Store.
Galactic Civilizations III
Get Free from Epic Games Store: January 21-January 28
Galactic Civilizations III a 4X strategy board game that uses a proven sci-fi premise is well worth the effort. You decide the fate of humanity and the alien factions around it as humanity learns that it is not the only one in the universe. The story campaign guides you through the history of each faction, while the sandbox maps can accommodate up to 100 opponents and offer a range of layouts, worlds, and challenges. There are many paths to victory, including military, political and technological. However, regardless of which route you choose, you will need to build a strong economy and fleet, create hypergates to facilitate travel, and perhaps even try your hand at espionage.
Dandara: Trials of Fear Edition

Dandara – Trials of Fear Edition puts you in the role of a heroine who fights to restore freedom to the world of Salt. Dandara is able to jump over walls, floors and ceilings to defy gravity.
