The annual inventory dump (until 8th of January 2026) on the Epic Games Store is less about holiday cheer and more about the cold mathematics of moving digital units. For those of us tracking the daily Mystery Games, which recently tossed out heavy-hitters like Hogwarts Legacy and Disco Elysium, the current sale is the final mathematical correction of the year. The mystery continues, but the storefront has effectively become a high-stakes clearance rack where the raw percentages finally favor the consumer.

The AAA Market Correction

High-profile releases from the 2024 and 2025 cycles are seeing early price collapses as publishers scramble to meet end-of-year targets. We see titles like Alan Wake 2 and Dying Light 2 Stay Human – Reloaded Edition sitting at 70%, a significant drop for software that still carries a high level of technical polish. Even the much-discussed Star Wars Outlaws and Assassin’s Creed Mirage have hit that same 70% floor, signaling a desperate need to inflate player numbers before the next fiscal quarter begins.

Meanwhile, the latest entries in perennial franchises like EA SPORTS FC 26 and EA SPORTS Madden NFL 26 have already reached a 60% discount, proving that the annual sports cycle is a race to the bottom once the initial launch window closes. For those looking at the newest bets, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, ARC Raiders, and Borderlands 4 are holding steady at 20%, offering a minor reprieve for early adopters who missed the initial window.

Seeing software like Suicide Squad hit a 95% discount is a grim autopsy of a failed project, essentially offering the title for the price of a coffee. However, the real value for a cautious buyer lies in the 60-80% brackets where polished experiences like Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3 are sitting at price points that actually respect your bank account. Take the 20% rewards and run, but don’t expect the industry to stay this vulnerable forever.

The Big 2024 Newcomers

The most notable part of this sale is the aggressive pricing on very recent releases. Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, which has been praised for its immersive realism and full Czech dubbing, is already at 50% off.

If you are after a unique RPG experience, Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is currently 20% off and even includes Czech subtitles. Other major newcomers on sale include Battlefield 6 at 30% off, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered at 33% off, and the psychological horror of Silent Hill f at 40% off.

Catching Up on the Classics

The discounts keep climbing from there. Cyberpunk 2077, which has become a masterpiece after its recent updates, is 55% off. For horror fans, Alan Wake 2 is a steal at 70% off. If you’re looking for a budget-friendly pick Hogwarts Legacy is available for a fraction of its original prices.

A Massive Catalog to Browse

The sale is far from limited to these headlines. Deep discounts are also live for Astro Bot, Baldur’s Gate 3, Space Marine 2, and Star Wars Outlaws. Whether you’re hunting for a 100-hour epic or a casual co-op game, this is likely the best time to buy before the new year.

PC gamers, take note: Epic Games has kicked off its annual Holiday Sale with a stunning move, offering the full base version of Hogwarts Legacy for free to claim this week. This massive AAA title, which normally retails for $59.99, can be added permanently to your library at no cost.

This unexpected gift is available for a limited time, running from its announcement until Thursday, December 18th, 11 AM ET. If you’ve been waiting for the optimal moment to jump into the Wizarding World, this is it.

The Wizarding World ARPG

Developed by Avalanche Software, Hogwarts Legacy is an open-world action RPG set in the 1800s, long before the events of the famous book series. This means you get to experience an entirely new era of the magical school while still exploring familiar grounds.

As a late enrollee to the fifth year at Hogwarts, you create your own witch or wizard and define your own legacy. Players will:

• Learn Spells and Potions: Attend classes, master a vast array of offensive and defensive magic, and mix essential concoctions.
• Explore a Massive World: Beyond the halls of Hogwarts, explore the Forbidden Forest, Hogsmeade Village, and the surrounding Highlands.
• Uncover Ancient Secrets: Dive into a compelling original storyline that sees your character holding the key to an ancient secret tied to a dangerous Goblin Rebellion.

This title allows for unparalleled immersion, letting you sort into your preferred House (Gryffindor, Slytherin, Hufflepuff, or Ravenclaw) and make choices that determine your moral path—a truly expansive role-playing experience for any fantasy enthusiast.

Pro Tip: Grab a Free Fortnite Cosmetic

As an added bonus for the Epic ecosystem user, playing at least two hours of Hogwarts Legacy before the December 18th deadline will automatically earn you the Chocolate Frog Back Bling cosmetic in Fortnite. It’s a sweet piece of enchanted flair to wear on the island while you work on your magical studies.

Don’t let this massive giveaway pass you by. Claim your copy before the offer expires next week.
