Deal | Epic Games Store: Overwhelmingly Positive-rated tower defense now available as first free game of 2026
Epic Games has now ended its Mystery Game program for the holiday season. As we have covered separately, the storefront decided to give away Total War: Three Kingdoms and Wildgate for a combined value of $89.98, assuming the pair's MSRPs. Now, Epic Games has returned with a new freebie that will last until January 15 at 16:00 UTC.
This week, Epic has decided to offer Bloons TD 6 (curr. $6.99 on Amazon) for free, as the video below makes clear. Typically, the storefront sells this title for $13.99. However, Steam regularly has the game on offer for as low as $0.99. Thus, this week's Epic Games' giveaway is not necessarily as generous as the storefront suggests.
Setting that aside, Bloons TD 6 maintains an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam from over 200,000 user reviews. A classic tower defense game, Bloons TD 6 has been praised for its complexity and depth of content. Additionally, many players remark how replayable the game is despite its apparent simplicity at first glance. Please note that this week's giveaway is available on Windows but not macOS. More details can be found on Epic Games' Bloons TD 6 store listing.
