Epic has been on a roll with their free games for the holidays, and the next one for today is another banger. For the third day of free holiday games, Epic is giving away Blood West, a fantastic FPS that you need to try out.

Blood West

Blood West is an immersive stealth FPS where you will roam the barren lands and fend off undead horrors. And with multiple different scenarios to play through, perk-based character progression, and a great combination of western and eldritch monsters, this is a wonderful game to enjoy, especially if it's completely free!

The game is also rated Verified for the Steam Deck, and for good reason. It should run perfectly out of the box on the Steam Deck at 40 FPS, but with some changes, it can run higher. Ultimately, setting to 30 FPS will be the best for battery, but you should be able to enjoy it with ease at 40 or 45 FPS.

Blood West can be redeemed for free to keep on Epic until tomorrow (December 21st), so get it while you still can!
