MOD: This list is wrong.

This list turns out to be not just unconfirmed but an incorrect list of Epic Games Holiday Sales free games. Posting unconfirmed / speculative offers is unhelpful for the community. Please check the updated guidelines — posting free games from Epic / Ubisoft during the current holidays sale before the day they have started is not allowed.

Please see here for current Epic Games freebies/deals. Feel free to use this post or existing deal posts for general discussions on the Epic Games 15 days of freebies.

Whoa!

These are perfect,
might go straight to my pile of shame.

Far cry 5, Andromeda, Origins and Borderland 3 would be those who I have not played and would never buy as they are too old list.
haha.
So it's perfect.

Thanks for the share OP!

  Well they don't do it for fun .
  Probably they are aiming to get some fans and hopefully buy some future games .
  Starting with this : Unwrap deals up to 75% off, but that’s not all
  Also look goods for the promotion side based on live action OP getting :)

    Don't worry, I've already had a word with him.
    
    He agreed to at least switch out Assassin's Creed Origins for Cyberpunk 2077. Sorry :(
- snackerjoe on 16/12/2020 - 08:57
  
  I only have a couple but even if I had all and paid for them I'd be happy others are getting them for free since it's an incredible deal (if true).
  - AngusD on 17/12/2020 - 08:19
    
    Yes, it's a great deal - like I said, good value for those who don't have them. I'd just be happier if it was a bunch of games that I don't already have rather than a bunch that I do already have.

    Because they might have a different selection of games that are equally as good if not better that I don't have?
    
    Jesus Christ, I'm not saying they shouldn't give away a bunch of free games, just that I, personally, would be happier if they were ones I didn't already have.
    
    If you tell me that you're just as happy to get free stuff you've already got instead of free stuff you don't already have then I'm going to call you a liar.

      If that is what you mean, then what you posted initially came out all wrong. You made it sounds like because you already have those games, you wish they are not freely available now for other people. That was just spiteful and selfish.
      - AngusD on 17/12/2020 - 08:15
        
        @edfoo: It was only spiteful and selfish if you lack basic comprehension.
        
        The deal here is not "15 free games on Epic Store". That was already posted last week https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/590119.
        
        The deal here is clarity around the specific 15 games that are supposedly being given away free.
        
        Why the hell would I, or anybody, object to stuff being given away free? This is OzBargain FFS. It's a good deal. I clearly said in my original post "GOOD VALUE FOR THOSE WHO DON'T HAVE THEM". Of course I'd rather it were 15 games that I don't already have, and so would you.

Borderlands and horizon make me really doubt it.

But I want to believe, and after some major giveaways like GTA, total war, plus the high standard of indie games… It's possible.

I'm going to go with "I believe" just because why not be an optimist for once?

There is no way this list is real. This is the list from last year:

December 19 – Into the Breach
December 20 – Towerfall Ascension
December 21 – Superhot
December 22 – Little Inferno
December 23 – Ape Out
December 24 – Celeste
December 25 – Totally Accurate Battle Simulator
December 26 – Faster Than Light
December 27 – Hyper Light Drifter
December 28 – Shadow Tactics
December 29 – The Talos Principle
December 30 – Hello Neighbor
December 31 - Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair

Notice how that real list from last year and this list are nowhere near the same realm of reality?

Why are fake fuzzy photos from some guy on Facebook now OK to be posted as deals?

  The deal is the 15 free games. The list is speculation and should be removed.
  - Payne on 16/12/2020 - 10:54
    
    Yep, and without the list, there isn't really enough detail to justify the post. Some of the $1 Tuesday eBay deals were removed for this reason.
    
    If OzBargain keeps on this path, businesses can just create spam posts for bargains that don't really exist, promising that they'll add the details later.
  - mangobango on 16/12/2020 - 16:18
    
    Yet Lysander made a post about it and was moved to the forums due to having insufficient info to be a bargain.

  Yes, this is clearly ridiculous. Unless Epic could somehow screw Apple by doing this then I don't see it happening.
  
  This would cost EPIC millions in fees to the rights holders. There is zero chance that this picture of a free games list with spelling mistakes is real.
  
  Step 1. Spend millions releasing top tier games for free
  Step 2. ….
  Step 3. Screw Apple?

  I think there will be about 3 bigger games (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, 31 December) and the rest of the games will be in the same category as the other games we have been getting throughout the year.

You guys are ruining the hope. OP has stated that its not an official source.

Epic has given away GTA, Civ 6 and Total War this year, so they are on a great track record to deliver something like this. You don't know that the list is fake until the 18th so lets not jump to judging first.

I think this is fantastic!

GOG.com, getting a bit of bad publicity because of Cyberpunk 2077 playing like a turd and not supporting more genders, are going to try and do one better, their list of upcoming free games is below:

18/12 - Legend of Zelda: BOTW [PC] - Nintendo have come to the party and ported this game to PC, free of course
19/12 - Cyberpunk 2078 - yes the sequel is already completed and will be out in just a few days and completely free of course
20/12 - The Witcher 4 - yep also ready and free
21/12 - Steve Jobs Simulator 2020 Gold Edition - includes bonus turtleneck DLC
22/12 - Assassins Creed State of Origin - special NRL licensed game, as a bonus Ray Warren will come to your house and commentate as you play (limited to first 5 downloads and must have stocked beer fridge)
23/12 - Metal Gear Solid - Psycho Mantis has been updated to check your GOG.com library and freak you out with more modern title guesses
24/12 - GOG.com will travel back in time and stop Rare selling out to Microsoft, a new and decent Rare game will appear on this date depending on your rules of time travel beliefs, may also assassinate Hitler (time permitting)
25/12 - Far Cry 3 - changed this to the best Far Cry, you should already have this free anyway, so have the day off
26/12 - SkiFree HD edition
27/12 - Servers are expected to crash on this day, so no game offered
28/12 - That game where you drive the car and hit people
29/12 - Spanish Inquisition - honestly nobody expected this
30/12 - Horizon Zero Dawn - sounds more like a cross between an energy drink and bad teenage vampire novel
31/12 - Hitmen 2 - similar to the Hitman series but you play the role of a woke woman and randomly assault strangers for being equipped with a willy
32/12 - Yes, they have invented a new day in December, and the entire GOG.com catalogue will then be available for you to download free-of-charge. Tip: add the games you want but don't bother downloading them, they are in your library forever from that moment

This list is still unofficial and has not been verified by an adult. Ask your parents before you call.

This one is the exception it seems because it includes an unconfirmed list of games.

These titles;
18/12 - Dying Light
19/12 - Resident Evil 7
20/12 - The Witcher 3
21/12 - Mass Effect Andromeda
22/12 - Assassins Creed Origins
23/12 - Metal Gear Solid
24/12 - The Evil Within 2
25/12 - Far Cry5
26/12 - Fallout 4
27/12 - Borderlands 3
28/12 - Monster Hunter World
29/12 - Dragon Age Inquisition
30/12 - Horizon Zero Dawn
31/12 - Ghost Recon Breakpoint
01/01 - Hitman 2

    I posted it last week and got removed because it was a dupe.
    
    If tonight the game is not Dying Light I think this post will get removed.
    
    I think others would of tried posting this?
