Game Rant: Epic Games Store Free Titles Aren’t Available for All

Unfortunately, not all of the allegedly free Epic Games Store titles will be free to play for players all over the world. There’s no use crying over spilled milk, so the store has released some updates and news concerning the issue.

Region Plays a Pivotal Role

The region plays a role in whether or not you’ll receive certain games for free. Before you panic that some games aren’t available in your country, remember that some of your games might not be available in other regions. For one, countries like Taiwan, Argentina, South Korea, and Mexico may be affected. So, regions where the game isn’t being sold on the storefront will be affected. For future reference, just confirm the availability of the game in your country. 

The Affected Games

Games like The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos, Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realm, and Hunter: Call of the Wild were affected. These games are highly rated by the gaming community. So, plenty of players have been looking to snag one for free. For one, The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos is a turn-based, tactical RPG with clumsy heroes with unique skill sets.

Epic Games Store Is Continuing the Generosity So Far

Epic Games Store is adding even more games to the list as the months of 2023 roll by. Even as we speak, not all of these games are free on Epic Games Store anymore.

Epic Games Store Rivals Are on the Prowl for More Market Share

While Epic Games Store doesn’t have the right to market its games in certain regions, other platforms and consoles can. Some games, like The Dungeon of Naheulbeuk: The Amulet of Chaos, are available on Steam in the same region that Epic Games Store doesn’t offer the exact game. So, don’t forget that developers have the choice to market their games through different publishers and marketers.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Why Does Epic Games Say a Game Is Unavailable?

Epic Games will say a game is unavailable if it’s being updated. After updating the game, you’ll be able to play it. Also, games might not be available when the store itself is being updated or during server downtimes. If the issue persists, restart the Epic Games Store app to troubleshoot it.

What Happens if Your Account Is Banned on Epic Games Store?

Suspensions are different from permanent bans because they’re temporary so players will only be suspended for a specified period. You can call it a temporary ban if you want. However, a permanent ban means the player’s account has been blacklisted from Epic Store Games. This means players can forfeit all purchases, accounts, store and in-game balances, and other achievements if the store bans their account.

Can Epic Games Store Unban Players?

Yes, in certain cases, Epic Games Store will unban players who are innocent of all the complaints and reports from other players. But to unban yourself, it’s probably good to know why Epic Games Store bans players. The list of reasons why your account can be banned includes:

• Use of racial, sexual, and hateful slurs.
• Inappropriate behaviour will also lead to a ban.
• Cheating in any form. Whether via software usage or otherwise will also lead to a ban.
