Leaked Lineup of Free Games

The Epic Games Store free game for January 3 to January 4 is A Plague Tale: Innocence, which was previously leaked. Part of the fun of the Epic Games Store free mystery games is being surprised with each new game, and while the games that made up this latest version of the promotion were mostly kept secret, the lineup has since leaked and let fans know what to expect from the rest of the free games.

The Epic Games Store free games for January 2024 leak accurately revealed Escape Academy, 20 Minutes Till Dawn, and now A Plague Tale: Innocence, so chances are good that the leaked game for January 4 is accurate as well. According to the leak, Guardians of the Galaxy will be the final free Epic Games Store mystery game and will be available for a full week instead of the usual one day, meaning it will be up for grabs from January 4 to January 11.

A Plague Tale: Innocence

Epic Games Store users will find out soon if Guardians of the Galaxy is the next free game, but for now, they can focus on the latest offering. From January 3 to January 4 at 10:00am CST, A Plague Tale: Innocence is free for Epic Games Store users to add to their collections. A Plague Tale: Innocence launched in 2019 to mostly positive reviews and should make a great addition to one's Epic Games Store library.

A Plague Tale: Innocence is a grim action-adventure game about Amicia de Rune and her brother Hugo as they try to survive encounters with deadly soldiers and massive swarms of vicious rats. A Plague Tale: Innocence earned particular praise for its story, and it was followed up by A Plague Tale: Requiem in 2022. A Plague Tale: Requiem earned even higher marks than its predecessor, so any EGS users that come away impressed by A Plague Tale: Innocence should definitely consider picking up Requiem.

It's probably not a coincidence that A Plague Tale: Requiem is currently on sale on the Epic Games Store for $22.49, down from its usual asking price of $49.99. Perhaps the hope is that Epic Games Store users will be tempted to complete their Plague Tale collection after snagging A Plague Tale: Innocence for free. In any case, the Epic Games Store Holiday Sale continues until January 10, so users have some time to make a decision.
