Epic Games Store is ending the year with a massive holiday surprise: the hit open-world RPG Hogwarts Legacy is completely free for a limited time. The game, which sold more than 34 million copies worldwide, normally retails for $59.99—but until December 18 at 5 PM (CET), you can add it to your library at no cost and keep it forever.
The announcement dropped during The Game Awards 2025 on December 11, and the demand was so explosive that Epic’s servers were overloaded within minutes. If you’ve never stepped into 19th-century Hogwarts, this is the perfect moment to grab one of the biggest gaming successes of the decade.
How to Claim Hogwarts Legacy for Free
Claiming the game takes less than two minutes:
- Go to the Hogwarts Legacy page on the Epic Games Store
- Log in to your Epic account (or create one if you don’t have one)
- Click “Get”
- The game is instantly added to your library—permanently
Even after the promotion ends on December 18, the title will remain yours forever.
⚠️ Important: Because of the massive surge in traffic, Epic is experiencing login issues and store errors. If the game shows as “Unavailable” or fails to load, simply try again later. You’ll have plenty of time to claim it before the deadline.
