Epic Games Store Drops a Beloved Beat ’Em Up as a Free Mobile Download

Epic Games Store has a surprise mobile giveaway: Double Dragon Trilogy is free on iOS and Android for a limited time. The offer runs from October 9 through October 16, 2025, and ends at 15:00 UTC.

This classic beat ’em up bundle brings three arcade legends to modern devices:
– Double Dragon (1987)
– Double Dragon II: The Revenge (1988)
– Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone (1990)

Originally re-released in 2013, the collection preserves the series’ pixel art and chiptune style while adding modern touches like a music toggle between remixed and classic tracks. You can play in two modes: Arcade mode for chasing high scores, or Story mode with level-by-level progression and achievements. It’s the same side-scrolling action that helped define the genre in the late ’80s.

Some players have noted the touch controls can feel a bit stiff, so a compatible mobile controller may enhance the experience. Normally priced around $3.49 on Google Play and $2.99 on the App Store, grabbing it free this week is an easy win for retro fans. Epic Games Store also has two PC freebies live right now, adding even more value to this week’s lineup.

If you love classic arcade brawlers or want a nostalgia hit on the go, claim Double Dragon Trilogy before the offer expires on October 16 at 15:00 UTC.
