The fourth free mystery game from the Epic Games Store for Holiday 2025 is now available, but time is running out to claim it. Once it disappears, the storefront will unveil its fifth free offering, sparking speculation that a major AAA title could be next.
Whispers among gamers point to Detroit: Become Human as a strong possibility. Currently priced at $9.99 on Steam and Humble Bundle, the game isn’t discounted within the Epic Games Store itself, leading some to believe it might be included in the platform’s planned giveaway of 17 free games this holiday season.
However, a previously leaked list claiming to reveal the full lineup of free games has been debunked, casting doubt on the likelihood of further AAA releases. This has led many to think that Hogwarts Legacy, the first free mystery game, may be one of the few high-profile titles Epic Games Store has in store for this event, with the remaining games being indie or AA titles.
A different theory gaining traction in online discussions suggests the fifth free game could be a repeat offering. This idea is supported by the fact that the fifth free game from 2020 through 2023 was a re-release. The reveal is scheduled for December 21, 2025, at 16:00 UTC—just a couple of hours away.
