Today's Gift from Epic Games Store is Bloodstained
The excellent metroidvania is available for free on the digital store

Epic Games Store continues its Christmas gift campaign, which, as a reminder, will allow all its users to receive about fifteen free PC games, by redeeming one per day. The title offered today on the digital store bears an author's signature: that of Koji Igarashi, the Japanese game designer who helped create the immortal Castlevania: Symphony of the Night.
Tuesday, December 23rd's Free Game
Symphony of the Night is a milestone in the metroidvania genre, and today's game can well be considered its spiritual successor: we are talking about Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, a title released in 2019. If you like the genre, we advise you not to miss it: you have until 5:00 PM on Wednesday to redeem it, on the Epic Games Store client or on the official website. If you want to delve deeper into Bloodstained, take a look at our review. The franchise will expand further in 2026, with a new chapter.
