Wow, not one but three Tomb Raider games are now free on the Epic Games Store with the offering of The Tomb Raider Trilogy and you now have 24 hours to grab them before the Epic Game Store returns to its more regular one-game-a-week offering. It’s been a lot of fun. We are glad you joined us on this page in your hundreds of thousands over the last fortnight.

Tomb Raider, Rise of the Tomb Raider and Shadow of the Tomb Raider round off an amazing giveaway fortnight. All games must be individually claimed, so there’s a bit of clicking to be done over the next day.

The games are:

  • Tomb Raider GOTY
  • Rise of the Tomb Raider: 20 Year Celebration
  • Shadow of the Tomb Raider: Definitive Edition

The Epic Game Stores seems to be struggling, for us at least, at the moment so if you are having similalr issues claiming the games, it might be worth checking back in an hour or so.

And that is that 15 days of free games came to a close for another year. See you next Christmas we suppose 🙂

We have had the first batch, but what do Epic Games still have in store for us over the remaining days?

As widely speculated from the recent leak, Shenmue III was confirmed as the first game to hit the freebie shelves and was then followed up another 14 great games – see below for the final list.
