Or... Epic is just getting hammered! :P

People couldn't redeem the fallout trilogy a few days ago so I'm not surprised.
Or... I know how 505 handle these things by what they did with Control... only the regular version is actually free:

Free: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/death-stranding

Not Free: https://store.epicgames.com/en-US/p/death-stranding-directors-cut

I guess that Helix was lucky enough to get the Director's Cut by looking at the library...

Snagged the DC as well as the OG versions. Let's hope they forget about me when they start taking it back.

Managed to get the regular version.
Anyone played both versions? Platinumed the original on ps4, but might be willing to give the upgrade a buy, and try it out on a gpu with rtx.

I knew about that as well but like I said, you couldn't redeem the Fallout games when they went free a few days ago so it wasn't necessarily a 505 problem! :P

I managed to get the DC version go through at 16:19, when did they swap it out?

It's still in my library for now at least, so I've claimed the standard version now just incase they do pull it as I have DC on PS5 anyway.

Gotcha.
Even if I've already Platinumed the OG game on PS4 and the Director's Cut on PS5 as well, I'm still mad I didn't managed to get the DC on PC, I tried for 15 minutes but couldn't let it work, rip.

I'll give the game another chance. I rented it from the library on PS4 and it didn't click that much back then. Now I have this and a Steam Deck. If I like it enough I'll just buy the DC version for Steam.

Well, despite having the email to prove that i claimed it, Death Stranding is not showing up in my library. Was gonna install it and nothing shows up.

Anyone came across the same bug?

In the top left of your library, there is a small circle icon (two arrows pointing at each other). Click that to refresh and see if it appears.

Same thing happened to me, this fixed it.

Didn't download it yet, but I noticed yesterday that the EGS "Get" button didn't change into a "In library" button (as would usually be the case) when I first managed to claim the game. I got the email and it showed up in the account transactions, so I figured it was successfully claimed but not yet synced with the purchase/claim part of the web service. And now everything looks correct on my end (including being available for download in the launcher).

What the hell is wrong with EGS? Seems like no recent games, including Death Stranding (and my purchase of the Director's Cut), are showing in the library. I guess the servers are still borked?

Have you tried the solution I gave above?

Refresh icon fixes this every time for me.

Ah, I'm sure it'll resolve itself. If it's showing in your transaction history, you've got it.

Thanks for reminding me about the transaction history on the website. Took a look there and all's good, but started getting really concerned since my library in the app, when sorted on "recently purchased", showed fucking Dungeons 3 and Ghostbusters, lol.

It's just screwy because of the load. I've went through this same anxiety yesterday when I couldn't find it in library lol. EGS always seems to give me some kind of headache whenever I log in...
