Another year wrapped up, another backlog of freebies claimed! 2025 has been another great year for FreeGameFindings, and before we jump into a new year of even more freebies and “I can't believe this is free?” moments, let’s take a look back at what happened this year.

Let’s start with the big picture. This year, 24,000 new subscribers joined FreeGameFindings, pushing us past the 400,000 subscriber milestone!
If you joined us in 2025: welcome! Whether you post, comment, or just quietly collect games, you’re part of what keeps our community awesome.

Visitors & page views:

Not everyone posts or comments and that’s perfectly fine. Many of you swing by, grab a freebie, and move on, and the numbers show it:

  • Over 2.2 million unique users visited FreeGameFindings this year
  • An average of 181,000 unique users per month

And as tradition dictates, December once again turned the subreddit into controlled chaos, as Epic’s daily freebies sent traffic through the roof with nearly 4 million page views in December alone, totalling 28.5 million total page views for this year.

How You Access FGF:

There are plenty of ways to browse Reddit, and you keep using all of them to access FGF. Here’s how the community split this year:

  • 60% on new Reddit (unchanged from last year)
  • 26% on mobile platforms (1% down from last year)
    • 12% Android app
    • 5% iOS app
    • 9% mobile browser
  • 14% staying loyal to old Reddit (1% up from last year)

Posts & Freebies Breakdown:

2025 was another fantastic year for free games.
A total of 215 different users submitted 1132 posts, averaging out to around 3 freebies every single day.

Here’s what was shared:

  • 750 free games
  • 141 in-game freebies
  • 90 free DLC
  • 132 PSAs
  • 19 other posts (FGF giveaways, Mod posts, etc.)

Now, let's talk about the places with the most free games. Steam once again takes the top spot thanks to external site giveaways, but here’s the full breakdown of free games posted per platform this year (including restocks):

Platform Free Games
Steam 376
Epic Games 135
IndieGala 80
Itch.io (without megathread) 54
Stove 37
GOG 20
DLsite 10
Xbox 3
Nintendo 2
Ubisoft 1

Top 10 Submitters:

Of course, none of this happens by magic. Someone has to actually find these freebies and some of you were clearly on a mission this year to share as many as you can find (possibly fueled by caffeine and alerts).

The top 10 submitters alone account for over 70% of all posts this year. And once again, u/MeguminShiro was on another level, contributing a staggering 33% of all posts by themselves.

Huge thanks to everyone on this list and to everyone else who shared even a single freebie!

Top 10 most upvoted posts:

Some freebies just hit different. As expected, Epic Games giveaways dominated engagement, pulling in lots of upvotes, comments, and views. Thankfully, GOG made sure this wasn’t a clean Epic sweep.
