The next game being given away by Epic for the 2024 holidays is DREDGE, a game I would consider an essential #SteamDeck title. It is only free for 24 hours, so go claim it now and don't miss out:

were they? I didn’t see anything mentioned prior, but the email we got said it was exclusive. I was under the impression that them confirming full Steam Deck support with cloud saves and controller support was the exclusive.
