Upcoming Epic Games Store free games lineup expands with Rainbow Six Siege-like shooter

In-game content for Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realms and Felix the Reaper are currently being given away by the Epic Games Store. When these two went live, the storefront announced that it plans to give away two free games from November 13 to November 20, 2025.

However, with a recent update, Epic Games Store has added a third free game to the upcoming giveaway lineup. It's Zero Hour, a tactical first-person shooter developed by Bangladeshi studios Attrito and M7 Productions. It was released on Steam in 2020, and since then, it has received over 16,000 player reviews.

Among all of them, 78% are currently positive, making Zero Hour gain the "Mostly Positive" rating on Steam. Regarding the game itself, the core multiplayer mode is an online 5v5 team-based play. As many notes, this round-based mode feels a lot like playing Rainbow Six Siege.

But then again, there are players who would argue that Zero Hour is less "arcadey" and more realistic than Rainbow Six Siege (Elite Edition for PS5 curr. $14.88 on Amazon). Nonetheless, this upcoming free game on Epic Games Store also has co-op PvE missions, which put the players against AI. However, as the AI enemies are not robust, this mode is regarded as the least engaging of the two.

There are over 15 maps in Zero Hour, all of which are fictional locations that are inspired by real sites in Bangladesh. Players also get to play with over 20 weapons and 15 utility gear.

Zero Hour usually costs $9.99 it's not on sale, and it will be available as a free game on November 13. This addition makes the total value of the upcoming giveaway stand at $56.97. Check out the video below to learn more about this surprise freebie.
