The Epic Games Store free game for Thursday, November 21 is Beholder. Every Thursday at 10:00am CT, Epic Games Store users are treated to new freebies. The current freebies are some of the most substantial that Epic Games Store has given away all year.

From now until November 21, Epic Games Store users can claim Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Snakebird Complete, with the latter coming as a surprise bonus free game. Castlevania Anniversary Collection consists of eight games in total, giving EGS users access to classics like Castlevania, Castlevania 2: Simon's Quest, Castlevania 3: Dracula's Curse, Super Castlevania 4, Castlevania: The Adventure, Castlevania 2: Belmont's Revenge, Castlevania Bloodlines, and Kid Dracula. Snakebird Complete, meanwhile, is a well-received puzzle game. All together, this means that Epic Games Store users technically have nine free games they can claim right now.

Epic Games Store users can snag Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Snakebird Complete while they wait for next week's freebie. On Thursday, November 21 at 10:00am CT, Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Snakebird Complete will be cycled out of the Epic Games Store free games lineup and replaced by Beholder. Beholder is set in a totalitarian country where players play as the manager of an apartment building whose goal is to spy on their tenants. Players are tasked with digging up dirt on their tenants, which they can then report to the State or keep in their back pocket for blackmail purposes. Player choice shapes the narrative, with multiple endings to see.

Castlevania Anniversary Collection (November 14 - November 21)
Snakebird Complete (November 14 - November 21)
Beholder (November 21 - November 28)

Beholder earned mostly positive reviews at the time of its original release and has a "Very Positive" overall rating from Steam users. Beholder takes an average of six hours to beat, and its unique premise definitely helps it stand out. Some may find getting a single game underwhelming after getting a total of nine titles in the latest batch of free games, but it's hard to argue with free.

Assuming the Epic Games Store sticks with its established patterns, chances are good that users of the platform will soon have many other exciting free games to add to their libraries. Unless plans change, the Epic Games Store free mystery game promotion is expected to make a comeback in December. If it's anything like previous iterations, the Epic Games Store free mystery game promotion will start in mid-December and run until early January. Users will be able to expect a new free mystery game daily instead of weekly, and typically, these titles are higher profile than usual. Time will tell, but in the meantime, Epic Games Store users can claim Castlevania Anniversary Collection and Snakebird Complete right now with Beholder free to claim from November 21 to November 28.
