This week, Breathedge and Rival Stars Horse Racing are being offered to players for free as part of the Epic Games Store’s weekly free games campaign. Users who add the games to their libraries during the campaign will be able to keep them permanently.
Breathedge combines resource management in space, base building and solving mysteries with a humorous survival adventure. Rival Stars Horse Racing, meanwhile, is built around breeding and training horses, preparing them for races and developing a farm. To claim the games, users need to sign in with an Epic Games account and complete the process from the relevant pages using the “Install” or “Add to Cart” options.
Why it matters
This campaign gives users who want to try new games the opportunity to experience two different genres without making a purchase decision. Breathedge’s focus on survival and resource management in space, and Rival Stars Horse Racing’s focus on horse breeding and farm development, show that the offer is not aimed at a single player profile. The fact that users who add the games to their accounts during the campaign period can retain permanent access gives them the opportunity to return later, unlike a short-term chance to play. However, since the announcement does not specify the exact date when the campaign will end, interested users need to complete the process within the stated period; signing in with an Epic Games account is also required for access.
