Epic Games Store’s holiday celebration keeps rolling forward, and today’s free title is one that fans of gothic action and Metroidvania adventures will immediately recognize. Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is the latest giveaway, bringing its haunting atmosphere, stylish combat, and intricately designed castle straight into players’ libraries at no cost.
Considered a modern spiritual successor to classic Castlevania, Bloodstained puts players in the role of Miriam as she battles demonic beings, absorbs powerful shard abilities, and uncovers the secrets lurking inside a sprawling gothic fortress. Built under the creative direction of Koji Igarashi, the game delivers everything fans expect from the genre: exploration, meaningful upgrades, challenging boss fights, and a moody world that constantly pulls you deeper in.

This giveaway once again highlights Epic’s commitment to offering genuinely worthwhile titles during the holiday period rather than simple filler. Whether you’ve been curious about Bloodstained since launch or you just love a well-crafted Metroidvania, this is one you absolutely shouldn’t skip.
