Civilization 6 and all its DLC is free right now but you'll have to be quick
Death Stranding, Marvel's Spider-Man, Alan Wake 2, and others have been discounted in the Epic Games Store Summer Sale, which includes a notable freebie too. The Epic Games Store might not be as popular as its rival Steam, but it is surprisingly generous when it comes to free games. The platform has been dishing out free games every week for around five years now. Over this past month alone, it has given out the likes of Sable, Two Point Hospital, and Backpack Hero. For the latest freebie, Epic is targeting strategy fans, with Sid Meier's Civilization 6. Best of all, it comes with all the expansions and DLC. The platinum edition of Civilization 6 is completely free right now on the Epic Games Store until Thursday, July 24, 2025 at 4pm BST. This edition comes with both expansions, Rise And Fall and Gathering Storm, along with all six DLC packs. Developed by Firaxis Games, the 2016 sequel is widely considered one of the best entries in the series. If you're unfamiliar (and as the name implies), the game involves developing your own civilisation in a race to defeat opponents, whether through military prowess, technological superiority, or cultural influence. It's a good way to test your interest in its recent sequel, Civilization 7, which came out in February this year across PC, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and recently Nintendo Switch 2. Sign up to the GameCentral newsletter for a unique take on the week in gaming, alongside the latest reviews and more. Delivered to your inbox every Saturday morning. Although so far most fans would agree that Civilization 6 is still the better game, especially with all its DLC. Once this offer expires next week, the next free game on the Epic Games Store will be Legion TD 2, a multiplayer tower defense game. More Trending This isn't the only bargain currently on the store. Epic is hosting a summer sale right now, which runs until July 31, 2025. Some highlights include Alan Wake 2 for £15.99, Marvel's Spider-Man Remastered for £24.99, and Death Stranding: Director's Cut for £14.39. Elsewhere, Assassin's Creed Shadows is 25% off at £44.99, while EA Sports FC 25 is a whopping 80% off at £11.99, ahead of the series' next entry. If you're in the market for a bargain in the console space, many deals from Amazon Prime Day are still ongoing and Sony is hosting a massive summer sale on the PlayStation Store.
