The Epic Games Store has been giving away free games for a while. For the most part, they’ve been indie gems. As of the last few weeks, Epic has switched things up, giving away AAA games like GTA V and Civilization 6. The newest free game continues that trend as Epic has decided to give away Borderlands: The Handsome Collection.

The latest free game on the Epic Games Store is none other than Borderlands: The Handsome Collection. Included in the collection are two Borderlands games, Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.
When it’s not on sale, Borderlands: The Handsome Collection is valued at $59.99, so getting it for free is a pretty good deal. Borderlands: The Handsome Collection will be free on the Epic Games Store from now until June 4, giving you a full week to redeem it and add it to your Epic library.
Once a free game has been added to your Epic library, it’s yours to keep forever. Even if you aren’t the biggest fan of Epic and the Epic Games Store, it’s worth it to collect these free games.
When Epic gave away GTA V, many gamers noted that while they don’t support Epic or the Epic Games Store, they noted that they weren’t going to turn down a free copy of GTA V if Epic wanted to give it to them.
With Epic giving away big games over the last few weeks, we’re curious what the next free game will be. We’ll find out on June 4, and will be sure to let you know as soon as we know.
Until then, what do you think of Epic’s latest freebie? Are you planning to grab a copy of Borderlands: The Handsome Collection, or are you holding firm in not using the Epic Games Store? Let us know in the comments below.
