The mystery Epic Games Store free game for the week of May 20 to May 27, 2021, turns out to be none other than a free NBA 2K21 copy.
Many fans speculated endlessly when the free game of the week turned out to be a mystery game. Usually, players get to see what the next free game will be in the Epic Games Store. However, Epic Games sometimes decides not to reveal the game and leave fans wondering. This brings a lot of attention to the store. Epic Games previously used the same strategy to give away big games such as Civilization VI and GTA5. This time, the mystery game turned out to be Take-Two Interactive's NBA 2K21, the latest in the NBA 2K series.
The free game giveaway comes just in time for the NBA Playoffs. This year's playoffs play-ins are in full swing, where we saw the Lakers beat the Warriors in the first round. While hope's not yet lost for the Warriors, they will have to beat both Memphis Grizzlies and win to clinch a spot in the playoffs. Fans who can't wait for the game can play out their fantasy matchups with their NBA 2K21 free copy in the meantime.
