The headline naming Bloons TD 6 is from May 13, 2026, and does not describe this week: TechWiser lists Bloons TD 6 as an earlier January 8–15 giveaway. Amazon Prime Gaming’s October offers use different redemption channels, and the exact titles available to claim on October 8 should be confirmed on Amazon’s live listing for your region.
Epic Games Store’s free PC games this week
TechWiser lists Out of Sight and TerraScape as free to claim from October 8 through October 15, 2026, with the offer ending at 8:00 a.m. PT on October 15. Epic’s official free-games page confirms the weekly giveaway cadence and says new PC and mobile offers arrive each Thursday; the captured official page does not show the specific game names, so check the live store listing before claiming.
- Out of Sight — listed by TechWiser for the October 8–15 claim window.
- TerraScape — listed by TechWiser for the October 8–15 claim window.
Both titles are Epic Store offers, not a statement that each game can be played through every PC storefront. Check the product page for platform support and any account or regional conditions.
What about Amazon Prime Gaming’s October titles?
Prime Gaming offers are separate from Epic’s weekly giveaway and can arrive throughout the month. Beebom’s October 6 report names Doom (2016) through GOG and Five Nights at Freddy’s: Into the Pit through Epic among October’s announced games. It also describes rewards distributed through services including the Epic Games Store, Microsoft Store, Amazon Games App, GOG, and Legacy Games.
#1 Best Overall
- Compatible with Windows and Android.
- 1000Hz Polling Rate (for 2.4G and wired connection)
- Hall Effect joysticks and Hall triggers. Wear-resistant metal joystick rings.
- Extra R4/L4 bumpers. Custom button mapping without using software. Turbo function.
- Refined bumpers and D-pad. Light but tactile.
That report does not establish a definitive pair of Prime games claimable on October 8, and availability or deadlines may vary by region. Open Amazon Luna’s live Prime Gaming listing and check each reward’s claim status, expiry, and redemption destination. A GOG or Epic code/reward is not the same as a title available only to stream through Luna; keep claimable PC rewards separate from Luna’s streaming catalog.
How to claim the games without mixing up the offers
- For Epic: Open the Epic Games Store Free Games page, sign in to the Epic account you want to use, and confirm the active game cards and deadline. Select each game and complete its checkout at the listed free price.
- For Prime: Open Amazon Luna’s Prime Gaming listing while signed into an eligible Amazon account. Confirm that the reward is available in your region, note the expiration date, and follow the displayed claim or code instructions.
- Check where the reward goes: Link or sign in to the named destination account—such as Epic or GOG—if the offer requires it. A claim tied to one storefront should not be assumed to appear in another library.
- Confirm what you claimed: Check the destination library or account and review its terms. A successful claim does not mean every title is immediately playable on every PC, and continued access depends on the relevant store and account terms.
Why the Bloons TD 6 headline is outdated
The MacMyths article carrying the supplied headline is dated May 13, 2026, and is not a reliable guide to the October 8 offers. Its reference to Bloons TD 6 should not be read as this week’s Epic giveaway: TechWiser places that game in an earlier January 8–15 listing. The current Epic titles identified for October 8–15 are Out of Sight and TerraScape.
