This week’s free Epic Games Store title has been confirmed

This week’s free Epic Games Store title has been announced.

Confirming an earlier leak, Giants Software’s Farming Simulator 22 is now free to claim on Epic’s PC marketplace until May 30 at 8am PST / 11am ET / 4pm BST / 5pm CEST.

Farming Simulator 2022 is normally priced at $29.99 / £17.99 on the Epic Games Store.

“Take on the role of a modern farmer and creatively build your farm in three diverse American and European environments,” reads an official description of the game, which has a score of 76 on review aggregation site Metacritic.

“Farming Simulator 22 offers a huge variety of farming operations focusing on agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry – now with the exciting addition of seasonal cycles!”

Rather than revealing upcoming giveaways a week in advance like it normally does, Epic is currently giving away “mystery” games over the course of the Epic Games Store Mega Sale.

The promotion, which is running for four weeks until June 13, kicked off with Dragon Age Inquisition – Game of the Year Edition.

The Epic Games Store gave away 86 free titles in 2023 (down from 99 in 2022). These games had a combined worth of $2,055, and users claimed nearly 586 million free titles (down from 700 million in 2022), according to Epic.
