The Epic Games Store Spring Sale 2026 is live with discounts up to 95% off across 2,000+ titles. From Borderlands 4 to Red Dead Redemption 2, here are the deals worth your attention.
The Epic Games Store Spring Sale 2026 kicked off on March 30 and runs through April 13 at 11 AM ET / 4 PM BST / 5 PM CEST. Over 2,000 games are discounted, with cuts reaching as high as 95%. Steam’s own spring sale already wrapped up, so if you missed that window or want a second shot at overlapping titles, this is your chance on a different storefront.
The Headline Deal: Borderlands 4 at 30% Off (With Fortnite Bonus)
Borderlands 4 is the sale’s biggest headline. Despite being a recent release, it’s already 30% off at $48.99. Even more notable: buying it through the Epic Games Store before September 12, 2026 gets you the Mad Moxxi Bundle in Fortnite, which includes a skin, back bling, and a pickaxe. This is part of Epic’s expanded “gift with purchase” Fortnite collaboration programme, which now covers around 40 games in 2026, including Resident Evil Requiem and Crimson Desert.
Deep Discounts on Proven Titles
The steepest cuts are on games that have already earned their reputations. Here are the standout deals:
| Game | Discount | Sale Price (USD) |
|---|---|---|
| Star Wars Jedi: Survivor | 90% | ~$3.99 |
| Dead Space Remake | 85% | ~$5.99 |
| Red Dead Redemption 2 (Ultimate) | 80% | $19.99 |
| Red Dead Redemption 2 (Base) | 75% | $14.99 |
| Alan Wake 2 | 70% | $14.99 / 15€ / £12 |
| EA SPORTS FC 26 | 70% | $20.99 |
| Cyberpunk 2077 | 65% | ~$13.99 |
| Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced | 50% | ~$19.99 |
| Kingdom Come: Deliverance II | 50% | ~$19.99 |
| Battlefield 6 | 40% | ~$41.99 |
| Borderlands 4 | 30% | $48.99 |
| ARC Raiders | 20% | $31.99 |
The Alan Wake 2 Deluxe Upgrade is also 70% off at just $6 / 6€ / £4.50 separately, which adds the story DLC and cosmetics. If you’ve been meaning to play Remedy’s survival horror, this is the best value it’s been at.
Recent 2026 Releases Already Discounted
A handful of games that launched this year are already seeing price drops. ARC Raiders, Embark’s extraction shooter, is 20% off, which is notable for a title still in its early months. MIO: Memories in Orbit, the critically acclaimed platformer that caught many off guard this year, is 20% off. The turn-based strategy title Menace sits at 25% off. None of these are deep cuts, but they’re meaningful if you were waiting for any price movement before buying.
Hidden Gems Under $5
Big sales are also the best time to grab smaller games at almost no risk:
- Ocean’s Heart (top-down RPG): 80% off, $2.99
- Donut County: heavily discounted, a quirky Katamari-like experience
- Monument Valley 2: optical illusion puzzles at a fraction of its usual price
- Biped 2: co-op puzzler, great with friends
These are the kind of games that disappear in the noise of a major sale but deliver outsized enjoyment per pound, euro, or dollar spent.
GTA V Enhanced at 50% Off: Worth It Before GTA VI?
Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced is half price. The specific relevance here: GTA VI is expected to arrive on consoles later this year, but there’s no confirmed PC date yet. If you want to revisit Los Santos or try GTA Online’s latest updates on PC, this is a solid entry point. At 50% off, the risk is low for a game that still has one of the most active online communities in gaming.
How Epic Rewards Add Extra Value
The Epic Rewards system is active during this sale. Every purchase earns you a percentage back as store balance, which you can apply toward your next buy. It’s not a coupon in the traditional sense (those tend to return during the Mega Sale in May), but it does stack meaningfully if you’re picking up multiple games. Buy three or four titles and the accumulated balance can cover a smaller indie game on its own.
The Fortnite Collaboration Programme
Epic has dramatically expanded its “buy a game, get a Fortnite cosmetic” initiative in 2026. Around 40 games now come with a Fortnite skin or accessory bundle when purchased through the Epic Games Store. Current participating titles include Borderlands 4 (Mad Moxxi Bundle), Resident Evil Requiem (Grace Ashcroft skin), Crimson Desert (Kliff skin), and Honkai: Star Rail (Stellaron Hunter Blade skin for eligible purchases). This only applies to Epic Games Store purchases, not Steam or console versions. If you play Fortnite, it’s a genuine differentiator for where you buy.
Things Worth Knowing
When does the sale end exactly?
April 13, 2026, at 11 AM ET / 4 PM BST / 5 PM CEST. Prices revert after that.
Is this better than the Steam Spring Sale?
It depends on the game. Many titles overlap between both storefronts, sometimes at slightly different discount levels. The Epic sale runs longer (two full weeks versus Steam’s typically shorter window), and the Fortnite bonuses plus Epic Rewards add value you won’t find on Steam. For some titles, particularly newer releases with timed exclusivity or Fortnite bundles, Epic is the better deal.
When is the next big Epic sale?
The Epic Games Store Mega Sale is expected around mid-May 2026. Historically, the Mega Sale has offered unlimited-use coupons (e.g., 25% or 33% off games above a certain price), which can stack with existing discounts for even deeper savings. If you’re patient, it might be worth waiting for select titles.
Should I grab Borderlands 4 now?
At 30% off plus the Fortnite Mad Moxxi Bundle, it’s the best value the game has hit so far. Reviews have been mixed to positive, so checking recent player feedback before buying is wise. The Fortnite cosmetic bundle alone has a perceived value for Fortnite players, which sweetens the deal.
Final Take
The Epic Games Store Spring Sale 2026 is one of the stronger seasonal sales this year, carried by genuinely deep discounts on proven games and the added pull of Fortnite collaborations. Whether you’re after a $3 copy of Star Wars Jedi: Survivor or looking to grab a recent release like ARC Raiders at its first discount, there’s real value across the catalogue. Check your wishlist, factor in Epic Rewards, and don’t sleep on the hidden gems buried below the AAA headliners. You have until April 13.
