Get a Thrilling Detective Game Free on Epic Games Store!

The weekly giveaways event on the Epic Games Store has just been updated. The previous offer of Two Point Hospital has been replaced by The Operator, a detective-themed puzzle game created by Bureau 81. As is customary, you have a week to add the latest title to your Epic Games Store collection permanently. 

Released in 2024, The Operator features a narrative that places you in the role of a new employee at the Federal Department of Intelligence (FDI), where your duties involve analyzing evidence, verifying facts, and solving a series of enigmatic crimes using the agency's state-of-the-art investigative tools.

You will be tackling various crimes, from murders and disappearances to cyberattacks, all while utilizing the agency's specialized software console to sift through evidence and personal information. As the narrative unfolds, a conspiracy revealed by another hacker presents the FDI in an unexpected manner.

Players who take advantage of The Operator being free on the Epic Games Store for a limited period should anticipate a gameplay experience lasting around three to five hours. The shorter duration corresponds to a playthrough that covers just the main storyline, whereas the longer duration reflects a completionist path. This marks the first occasion that The Operator has been offered for free on PC or any other platform. It remains uncertain when such an opportunity will arise again.

The giveaway for The Operator on the Epic Games Store is currently live and will continue until June 26. When it is not being offered at no cost, the game retails for $13.99, but PC gamers can secure it for free during this seven-day period. Another PC title will be introduced as the next giveaway on the same day this offer concludes. As always, utilize our comparison tool to discover the best prices for your upcoming favorite games.
