The Epic Games Store is wrapping up its May 2025 free game giveaways with two very different titles: Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands and Limbo. Both games are now available to claim for free until June 5, giving PC players one week to add them to their libraries before the next wave of mystery games arrives.

Epic Games Store Free Games

Since May 8, the Epic Games Store has shifted from its usual weekly reveal format to a mystery game model, keeping the identity of each free title under wraps until it officially goes live. So far, seven mystery games have been offered this month, with Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands and Limbo marking the final pair. Two more mystery games are set to be revealed on June 5, continuing the storefront’s summer push for user engagement.

Borderlands Meets Fantasy in Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands

Released in March 2022, Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands spins the looter-shooter chaos of Borderlands into a fantasy setting inspired by tabletop RPGs. Framed as an in-universe game run by Tiny Tina, the campaign introduces players to a world filled with swords, spells, and explosive weapons, all presented with the franchise’s trademark humor.

The game holds a “Strong” rating on OpenCritic, averaging a score of 78 with a 76% recommendation rate from critics. While it doesn’t quite reach the acclaim of Borderlands 2, it’s generally viewed as a fun, creative offshoot that stands on its own. This is the first time Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands has been free on the Epic Games Store platform, joining past franchise giveaways like Borderlands 3, The Handsome Collection, and Tiny Tina’s Assault on Dragon Keep.

Recommended Requirements:

  • Operating System: Windows 10 (latest service pack)
  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 5 2600 or Intel Core i7-4770
  • Memory: 16 GB RAM
  • Graphics: AMD Radeon RX 590 8GB or NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB
  • Storage: 75 GB available space

Limbo Brings Back Indie Classic Vibes

In contrast to Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, Limbo presents a minimalist, monochromatic experience focused on puzzle platforming. Developed by Danish studio Playdead and released in 2010, the game has been praised for its atmospheric design and subdued storytelling. Limbo has been recognized with multiple awards and is often cited as one of the most influential indie games of its time.

This is not the first time Limbo has been available for free on the Epic Games Store. It was previously featured as a free-to-play title in July 2019. Its return provides another opportunity for users to experience the game’s distinctive style and gameplay.

Recommended Requirements:

  • Operating System: Windows 7 SP1 and above
  • Processor: x64 or x86
  • Memory: 4 GB RAM
  • DirectX: Version 10
  • Storage: 600 MB

What’s Next for the Epic Games Store

Epic’s mystery game promotion isn’t ending with these two. Starting June 5, the store will unveil two new mystery games as part of the continuing weekly rollout. While there's no early info on what those titles might be, recent weeks have seen a mix of genres and sizes, ranging from high-profile releases to cult classics.

The strategy remains consistent: keep players checking back each week and continue building the Epic Games Store library with notable, varied titles. Whether you're into chaotic shooters or atmospheric indies, the store’s free game giveaways remain one of the best ongoing promotions in PC gaming.
