Epic Games has kicked off 2026 with a fresh round of freebies, and this week comes with an unexpected twist for mobile players. The company’s latest giveaway is now live, and while many people assumed the mobile offer would mirror the PC selection, Epic has gone in a different direction.
On PC, this week’s free game is Bloons TD 6, a popular tower defense hit widely praised by players. It’s available to claim until January 15, giving fans plenty of time to add it to their library before the offer ends.
But on Android and iOS, Epic isn’t handing out Bloons TD 6. Instead, the Epic Games Store mobile giveaway features Bouncemasters, a casual arcade game that’s earned strong player ratings and is designed for quick, satisfying sessions. The concept is simple and addictive: you launch cartoon penguins as far as you can across different maps, aiming for maximum distance and the perfect run.
What keeps Bouncemasters interesting is the mix of timing and loadout choices. Success depends heavily on hitting your penguin at just the right moment, and you can switch between different bats, each with its own unique feel and performance. That small layer of strategy adds replay value, especially for players who enjoy improving their timing and pushing for better distances.
Epic notes that the combined value of this week’s free titles is $4.98 when redeemed together. To claim the mobile free game, you can add it to your library through the Epic Games Store mobile app while the promotion is active.
