Epic Games Store Reveals Next Free Games for July 9

The Epic Games Store has officially confirmed its next round of free games, giving PC players two more titles to add to their libraries at no cost. Starting on July 9, users will be able to claim Nova Lands and Tattoo Tycoon, replacing the current weekly giveaway.

The upcoming promotion marks the fifth and sixth free games offered by Epic during July 2026, continuing the company’s long-running strategy of releasing new free titles every Thursday.

Nova Lands and Tattoo Tycoon Free From July 9

Players will be able to claim both games between July 9 and July 16, with the giveaway beginning at:

  • 8:00 AM PDT
  • 11:00 AM EDT
  • 5:00 PM CET

Once claimed during the promotional period, both games remain permanently attached to your Epic Games Store account.

Neither Nova Lands nor Tattoo Tycoon has previously been offered for free on the Epic Games Store, making this the first opportunity for players to grab both titles without paying.

Current Free Games Still Available

Until the July 9 refresh, players can still claim:

  • River City Girls 2 (normally $39.99)
  • I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream (normally $9.99)

These titles replaced the previous giveaway of RollerCoaster Tycoon 3 Complete Edition and Voidwrought, whose promotion ended on July 2.
