It’s that time of year when we all love to spend time with family, eat as much as we can, and of course play video games. Epic Games shares that same vision and over the last few years, going back to 2019, have run holiday promotions, offering up to 15 free games to claim.
Although not yes officially confirmed by Epic Games, the festive holidays of 2022 are reported to be no different. According to a reputable leaker Dealabs user billbil-kun, a user who has accurately leaked past promotions across a number of platforms, the Epic Games Store promotion will be running from December 15th 2022 to January 10th 2023. Keep in mind, however, that at the moment, this is just a rumor!
