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.

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.
