The Epic Games store is now open, featuring awesome high-quality games from other developers. Our goal is to bring you great games, and to give game developers a better deal: they receive 88% of the money you spend, versus only 70% elsewhere. This helps developers succeed and make more of the games you love.
The first games on the store are Hades by Supergiant Games, Ashen by Annapurna/A44, and Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek by tinyBuild, and they’re available now!
Hades is the rogue-like dungeon crawler from the creators of Bastion and Transistor. It is available in early access, with updates to come every month until full release later in 2019.
Ashen is an action RPG about a wanderer in search of a home. You can forge relationships in the game, inviting other players to join your camp - they might just help you succeed.
Hello Neighbor: Hide and Seek is the prequel to Hello Neighbor, the stealth horror hit. Find out what happened right before the events of the main game.
The store will also feature one free game every two weeks throughout 2019. Epic is funding these free releases so you always have something new to come and check out. The first free game will be Subnautica, available from Dec 14th to Dec 27th, followed by Super Meat Boy from Dec 28th to Jan 10th.
The Epic Games store will be growing throughout 2019 and beyond, as it opens up more widely to other games.

Subnautica is awesome ........
My son won't even finish his game because he gets too creeped out at the deep depths with some of the freaky creatures...
It is awesome. I've had a lot of jump scares in the deep myself. Even in the Titan sub I don't want to come close to the big nasty fuckers down there. Can't wait for the new biome.

I hope this roguelike fad dies down soon. I'm tired of seeing a dungeon crawler, rpg or arpg that is a "roguelike" or "roguelite". To me, that means "we've made frustratingly hard, very simplified, and the only way you'll progress is to play through the first stages of the game 50 times". I don't like doing the same things over and over.

My Epic account is linked to a defunct email provider, and it appears they still won't let you update your email. Seems like launching a store without that functionality is a bad idea, no?

Holy shit, they're giving away Subnautica for free??

I don’t know if I’ll buy much on it, but for small dev games, it’s a better deal for the devs, there’s no way to argue against that. The only game in that category that I’m interested in is Satisfactory, which has a very high chance of being on the Epic store when it launches.
