Epic Games Store Unveils Free DREDGE For Holidays

Players can claim the acclaimed fishing horror game until December 25.

The Epic Games Store is spreading some holiday cheer with its latest giveaway, making available the acclaimed indie game, DREDGE, for free. Players can claim this captivating fishing adventure for just 24 hours, starting today, and celebrated as one of 2023's most impressive indie titles.

DREDGE, which encompasses elements of fishing with dark, Lovecraftian horror, is not just about casting lines and reeling fish. Rather, it takes players onto eerie waters where they not only collect their catch but also unearth unsettling secrets hidden beneath the surface. Available for free until December 25 at 11:00 AM EST, this game usually retails for $24.99. Players are encouraged to download and experience the blend of relaxation and tension it offers.

The game's mechanics are centered around exploring a mysterious archipelago, sailing through fog-laden waters, and selling catches to upgrade boats and equipment, all the more important as dangers increase significantly under cover of night. Each island immerses players with unique quests, characters, and frightful remnants from the past. With its overwhelmingly positive reviews on Steam, DREDGE has been recognized by critics and fans alike, launching it to the forefront of holiday gaming options.

Prominent figures within the gaming community have praised DREDGE as one of the standout releases of the year. “I love horror stories, but I have a hard time with traditional horror video games. DREDGE does a good job of balancing its spooky atmosphere and interesting story with urgency and relaxation,” noted one enthusiastic Steam reviewer.

While enjoying the holiday free games event, players are buzzing about what to expect next from the Epic Games Store. Over the course of the event, which spans until January 2, 2025, several more games will join DREDGE as holiday treasures. A leaker known only as billbil-kun hinted at numerous upcoming titles, creating anticipatory excitement among the gaming populace.

Analyzing the free game lineup reveals titles like The Lord of the Rings: Return to Moria, Vampire Survivors, and Astrea: Six-Sided Oracles. The next title is set to be revealed on Christmas Day, generating curiosity and speculation among eager players. Sources indicate the Christmas freebie may be something like Sid Meier's Civilization VI: Platinum Edition, drawing inklings from cryptic clues disseminated across gaming platforms—though fans remain skeptical as the emojis used in hints add layers of mystery.

While players await the next game with bated breath, the introduction of DREDGE has certainly garnered much attention. The unique mixture of relaxing gameplay and creeping tension found within DREDGE makes it stand out as the perfect game to explore during the holidays. It serves not only as entertainment but also as a potential conversation starter for friends and family gathered over this festive season.

The buzz generated around DREDGE is palpable. Its blending of fishing traditions with eerie exploration encourages players to plunge deep beneath the surface of the water, where each descent hints at new dangers lurking just out of sight. With fans likely to share their game experiences, players are eager to recount their adventures as they navigate haunting waters.

The Epic Games Store continues to impress gamers by providing popular titles for free during the holiday season, making it easy for both new players and seasoned veterans to join the fun. Yet, could this holiday season be the best one yet for gamers, or will excitement dwindle as the days pass? Overall, claiming DREDGE is not just about playing for free; it’s about immersing oneself within another world, battling darkness and cherishing adventures like no other.

To all the gamers out there, don’t miss out! Dive headfirst and explore the haunting yet enticing waters of DREDGE. This holiday season features thrilling opportunities for all, appealing to adventurers and thrill-seekers alike!
