Salt and Sanctuary looks to be the last daily giveaway then who knows? There still hasn't been an official announcement yet on the future of Epic freebies (although I'm hoping to force one today by pre-writing this so that Epic says something just to make this post immediately obsolete)

That's it for the daily freebies. Tomorrow is Thursday and there's going to be at least one more week long giveaway. It's a big one too, Tomb Raider: Definitive Survivor Trilogy (Tomb Raider 2013, Rise of, and Shadow of). Let's hope it's not the finale of Epic's extremely generous promotion.

Next week: Galactic Civilizations III (again). No official announcement yet but it looks like the weekly freebies are still going to be a thing.

Quick, make a game called "Fall Gods, Fall!", Epic will buy it. -
One year ago, Epic was teasing us by not officially announcing that the weekly giveaways would continue even thought they were offering a free copy of Galactic Civilizations III. Nothing has changed.
