Free computer games: here’s what is now available to download

Everyone loves free stuff. And if you have a gaming computer, you can always find a game or two that you can download for free from a digital store window. Honestly, it is one of the best benefits of playing games on a computer. The only problem is that it can be difficult to keep track of what free games are available at any given time. We thought we would make it easy for you. Every time you can download a free computer game at one of the major online stores, you will highlight it below. All you have to do is check back regularly to make sure you are getting the free computer games you deserve so richly.

Free games from Epic Game Store

For years and years, Steam seemed unstoppable. It was the store window for computer games. How can any business compete with such a entrenched power station? The answer is: by offering tons of free, high quality games.

Anyone with an Epic Games Store account can download at least one free game from the online retailer each week. These are many benefits and one that you should take advantage of weekly if you like free games. And who does not?

Free Games from Amazon Prime Gaming

Amazon Prime members get a bunch of free computer games every month. Granted, you have to sign up for Prime, which costs money, but if you’re already a member for the free delivery or Prime Video, you might as well take advantage of the free games every month. Prime members also get items in the game in all sorts of titles, ranging from Destiny 2 and League of Legends to Red Dead Online and Star Wars Squadrons.

Unless you really like indie titles, it’s probably not worth signing up for Prime just to get the free games. Prime’s free computer games are usually not as big or well known as Epic Games Store. But if you are already a Prime member for the many other benefits, there is no reason not to look at what is offered each month.
