The Epic Games Store has made City of Gangsters and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider free to claim, while revealing that next week's free game will be Recipe for Disaster. Thursdays are always an exciting day of the week for Epic Games Store users, as that's when they get new free games to add to their collections while also getting a preview of what they can expect from the digital storefront next week.

The Epic Games Store free games for February 2 to February 9 are the aforementioned City of Gangsters and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider. City of Gangsters is a management game where players run their own criminal empire. It earned mixed reviews from critics. Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, meanwhile, earned much more positive reviews. A standalone expansion pack for Dishonored 2, Dishonored: Death of the Outsider is easily one of the highest profile Epic Games Store free games of 2023 so far.

Both City of Gangsters and Dishonored: Death of the Outsider are free to claim until February 9 at 10:00am CT, at which point they will be replaced by Recipe for Disaster. Recipe for Disaster is a restaurant management sim that first launched last year. Unfortunately, there aren't enough reviews to properly gauge Recipe for Disaster's critical reception, but it received two positive reviews and two negative reviews when it first released, so mileage may vary.

City of Gangsters (February 2 - February 9)
Dishonored: Death of the Outsider (February 2 - February 9)
Recipe for Disaster (February 9 - February 16)

Recipe for Disaster is free for Epic Games Store users to claim from February 9 to February 16, at which point will be replaced by the next Epic Games Store free games, whatever they may be. Epic Games Store users should be clued in on the free games for February 16 once Recipe for Disaster is made free on the ninth, assuming that the digital storefront sticks to the pattern it's established with its free games.

Some Epic Games Store users may be disappointed that Recipe for Disaster is seemingly the only free game coming next week. After all, the Epic Games Store was on a streak of giving away two free games every week, so some may have expected that to continue. That being said, there's a chance that Recipe for Disaster will actually be joined by another free game next week that just hasn't been revealed yet. While fans certainly shouldn't get their hopes up, there have been multiple instances where the Epic Games Store has surprised users with an unannounced free game, so it's entirely possible that will happen next week.
