Each week Epic Games gives away free titles through its store, a strategy that has greatly helped Epic boost its user numbers for the store. This week's free titles are now available, including The Elder Scrolls Online and Murder by Numbers.
While it isn't always making headlines, The Elder Scrolls Online continues to be a popular MMO to this day, with a dedicated player base returning each year for new content. The game's latest expansion just launched in June, but if you'd like to get started, you can now claim the base game for free through Epic Games until the 27th of July.
The Elder Scrolls Online first released in 2014 and has only grown since. At this point, the game has a ton of expansions, with Zenimax Online typically dropping a new one every year. The most recent expansion, Necrom, just launched on June 5th. While the base game is free via the Epic Games Store, players will have to purchase the expansions afterwards. The game does not have crossplay with consoles, but if you claim the game through EGS, you will still be able to play with those who have the game through Steam or the direct launcher version.
Murder by Numbers on the other hand is a puzzle game from Mediatonic, the studio best known for Fall Guys. The game first released in 2020 and has very positive reviews on Steam. It is a simple detective story, in which players have to solve puzzles to find clues.
