Epic Games Store has had its upcoming free game offering leaked ahead of schedule. According to a reliable source, @billbil_kun, the storefront intended to feature The Falconeer as this week’s complimentary title, valued at $7.99.
However, plans seem to have shifted with @billbil_kun revealing that Floppy Knights, originally priced at $19.99, is slated to replace The Falconeer.
The leak comes despite Epic Games’ usual practice of revealing its weekly giveaways just before they go live, which typically occurs at 15:00 UTC. As of the time of publication, Epic Games Store’s listing still displays The Falconeer as the upcoming free game.

Floppy Knights, a game playable on Windows or Mac systems, is currently available for purchase on Steam at a discounted price of $4.99 until July 11. It boasts compatibility with machines released within the last decade, making it accessible to a wide range of gamers.
@billbil_kun’s leak suggests that potential buyers might benefit from waiting until after the current Steam deal expires to take advantage of Epic Games Store’s offer, provided the leak holds true.
