Epic Games Store Reveals New Free Game and One More Offer for October 9

Gravity Circuit is the free game being given away on the Epic Games Store starting October 9th. As the third free game offered this month, the storefront is also providing a special bonus for Epic Games Store players who try out Albion Online.

From September 25th to October 2nd, Epic Games offered the side-scrolling action RPG Eastern Exorcist and the point-and-click adventure Jorel’s Brother and The Most Important Game of the Galaxy as free games. That seven-day offer has ended, and it’s been replaced with two new freebies: Nightingale and a $100 worth of in-game items for Firestone Online Idle RPG.

Now that the Epic Games Store’s October 2 giveaway is underway, they’ve announced their next promotion: you can get Gravity Circuit and the Rogue Journeyman Bundle for Albion Online with 100% discounts. These limited-time offers will become available on October 9 at 8am PT / 11am ET / 5pm CET. Epic Games Store users will have seven days to claim Gravity Circuit and the Albion Online bundle.

What Is Gravity Circuit?

Gravity Circuit, an action platformer created by Finnish studio Domesticated Ant Games, feels like a modern take on classic games such as Mega Man. It launched in July 2023 on consoles and PC, available through Steam and the Epic Games Store, and quickly earned high praise. OpenCritic gives the game its top “Mighty” rating, based on an average score of 86 and a perfect 100% recommendation rate. Players on Steam overwhelmingly agree, giving the action platformer “Overwhelmingly Positive” reviews after almost 2,000 impressions.

Everyone’s been raving about Gravity Circuit, and I have to agree – it’s seriously good! The controls are super responsive, the boss fights are intense, and I love how you unlock new gear that completely changes how you play. It takes the classic action platformer feel and gives it a modern spin. A lot of people are saying it gets better and better as you go, and I’m definitely feeling that. If you’re an Epic Games Store user, you’re in luck – they’re giving away this 2023 title on October 9th! It usually costs $16.99, so it’s a great deal and a perfect time to jump in.

Before next week’s sale begins, players on the Epic Games Store can now get Nightingale, a survival crafting game set in a Victorian world and playable with up to six friends. Epic Games is also offering a free bundle for Firestone Online Idle RPG, marking their second such giveaway in half a year. Similar to the bundle from April 2025, this new package includes items worth a total of $100.
