Epic 免费游戏：1 月 16 日重磅登场！

Escape Academy, a highly-rated escape-room style puzzle game, is the Epic Games Store's free game offering for January 16th, 2025. This marks the fourth free game giveaway for the EGS in 2025 and, based on its OpenCritic score of 80 and 88% recommendation rate, is currently the highest-rated free game offered so far this year.

This free offering lasts for one week, from January 16th to January 23rd, replacing Turmoil in the EGS lineup. Developed by Coin Crew Games, Escape Academy challenges players to hone their escape room skills as students at the titular academy, training to become "escape room masters." The game, originally launched in July 2022, supports solo play, online multiplayer, and split-screen co-op, receiving widespread praise for its well-implemented co-op mode.

Interestingly, Escape Academy was previously offered as a free game on the EGS on January 1st, 2024, but this giveaway provides a full week of access, making it especially convenient for Xbox Game Pass subscribers, as the game is slated to leave the service on January 15th.

January 2025 Epic Games Store Free Games:

• January 1st: Kingdom Come: Deliverance
• January 2nd-9th: Hell Let Loose
• January 9th-16th: Turmoil
• January 16th-23rd: Escape Academy

The game's positive reception extends beyond critical acclaim, boasting "Very Positive" Steam reviews and high ratings on PlayStation and Xbox stores. Following the Escape Academy giveaway, the EGS is expected to announce its fifth free game of the year on January 16th. Players who enjoy the main game can also purchase two DLC packs, Escape From Anti-Escape Island and Escape From the Past, individually for $9.99 each or as a Season Pass for $14.99.
