This isn’t the first time Epic Games has given away games for free, and it won’t be the last, either. This has been going on for years, and sometimes, the free games are an absolute steal.

This time around, you have the opportunity to get your hands on Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts and Football Manager 2024. The former was released in 2019 and has a price tag of $13.94, so it isn’t that surprising to see it being offered with a 100% discount. However, Football Manager 2024 isn’t even a year old and goes for $59.99.

It is rare to see such games go for free, but we’re not complaining and are happy to add them to our library of games we might never play. So, collectively, you’ll save $73.93 and have till September 12, 5:00 PM, to avail of this offer. If you have a Steam Deck and are wondering if you can play Epic Games on it, we’ve got you covered.
