To kick off 2026, gamers can bolster their digital libraries with two major additions: a legendary entry from the Total War franchise and the high-octane action of Wildgate.
The Epic Games Store has officially launched its inaugural free giveaway cycle for 2026. This time around, the storefront is offering a double feature, allowing users to claim two distinct titles at no cost.
Total War: Three Kingdoms transports players to the tumultuous era of ancient China, where heroes rise and empires fall:
This great nation lies fractured and weary, desperate for a new sovereign and a unifying vision. Forge a path to ultimate power, unite China under your banner, and establish a legendary dynasty that will endure for centuries to come.
Also included in the EGS selection is Wildgate—a first-person PvPvE shooter featuring several distinct gameplay modes:
- “Artifact Scramble”: Teams must secure a mysterious relic and fight their way to an extraction gate, or simply eliminate all opposing vessels to claim victory.
- “Fleet Warfare”: Promoted as a massive cosmic conflict, this mode pits two teams of 12 against each other in grand-scale space battles.
- “Bounty Hunt”: An expedition-style mode focused on high-stakes exploration: “Your goal is to fill your cargo hold with plunder and escape before your ship is blown to atoms.”
You can add Total War: Three Kingdoms to your EGS library via this link, and Wildgate is available here. This dual giveaway is active until January 8, 2026, at 7:00 PM MSK.
