The year-end Epic Games Store: Holiday Sale might come back

The Holiday Sale on the Epic Games Store is rumored to return this year. The Epic Games Store Holiday Sale was a huge hit, with free games every day for three weeks. These include acclaimed titles like the Tomb Raider Trilogy, Control, and Prey, to name a few. A user on Dealabs, Billbil Kun has informed on the platform that the Sale’s set to come back “somewhere between December 15, 2022 and January 10, 2023.” While Billbil Kun has previously been correct about such “leaked’ information, nothing official on the same has yet been announced by Epic Games. Regardless, Christmas is a time for cheer and joy, with multiple sales going around everywhere. So we might as well expect one on the Epic Games Store too. In the meantime, don’t forget to check in for the ongoing Black Friday Sale.
