Epic Games Store’s second giveaway of October 2025 is live, and this week’s lineup blends high-energy action with a hefty dose of MMO style. Both freebies are available from October 9 to October 16, ending at 15:00 UTC. Once the window closes, a new set of offers will take over, so don’t wait if either title catches your eye.
The headliner is Gravity Circuit, a critically praised 2D action platformer from Domesticated Ant Games. Launched in July 2023, it’s earned around 2,000 reviews on Steam with a standout 95% positive rating. You play as a super-powered robot on a mission to save the mechanical world from a rogue army, and the gameplay shines where it counts: responsive, silky-smooth controls and a heavy focus on close-quarters combat. A slick grappling hook steals the show, letting you slam foes, set up stylish combos, and swing across levels with satisfying momentum. While many love its combat depth and old-school flair, some players found the story a bit vague and certain segments a touch repetitive. Normally priced at $16.99, the game also offers full controller support, making it an easy pick for couch play.
The second freebie is the Rogue Journeyman Bundle for Albion Online, a content pack packed with cosmetic skins valued at over $50. First introduced with the Rise of Avalon update, this bundle adds visual flair to one of the most enduring sandbox MMORPGs on PC. Albion Online, which launched in 2017 as a free-to-play title, is known for its open-world design and classless character system—your abilities are determined by the gear you equip, encouraging experimentation and unique builds. The game enjoys a healthy player base and a generally positive reception, though some reviews mention that combat can feel sluggish at times, and the presence of pay-to-win elements remains a sticking point for part of the community.
Both offers are available for a limited time, from October 9 through October 16 at 15:00 UTC. If you’re looking for a fast-paced action platformer with a throwback vibe or want to deck out your character in a long-running MMO, this week’s Epic Games Store freebies are well worth adding to your library before the deadline.
