They are still going with the free games? I thought they were only supposed to last a year?

we’re extending our weekly free game program throughout 2020. Every single week, come back to claim your game. Once claimed, it’s yours to keep forever.

They can't possibly be making money doing this.... but it must be working if they're extending it, right?

I mean.... no one would think... we didn't get a return on all this spend, so let's do it for longer, right? Right?

Giving the stuff away isn't making them money directly but it is getting people to use the store and it's all still being bankrolled by Fortnite.

Horace is now free...

I quite enjoyed Aztez - quick and easy to pick up, and good for a few hours.

I still cannot get over the fact Kingdom Come is free. That is great
