It's A Kind Of Magic With This Week's Epic Games Store Freebie

The Epic Games Store continues to give away a free game each week, and this week is another nice find with a price that can't be beaten. Every Thursday at 8 AM PT / 11 AM ET, Epic offers at least one free PC game (and sometimes even as many as two or three). All you need to do to claim the free games is create a free Epic account and enable two-factor authentication. You have a week to add the freebies to your library before the new one(s) take their place. At this point, Epic has given away hundreds of free games, and there's no sign that the program will stop any time soon. We keep this article up to date weekly to highlight both the current free games and next week's offerings.
Current free game at Epic

This week you can pick up Mages of Mystralia, an adventure game full of puzzles, customizable magic spells, and challenging boss fights.
Next free game at Epic

Next week you can grab Them's Fightin' Herds, a 2D fighting game featuring a roster of adorable animals. While they might look like they've stepped off the set of an episode of My Little Pony, these critters are not to be messed with as they're out for cuddles and carnage.
