Epic has bought Quixel:

Epic will give full access to the Megascans when used in Unreal Engine.
As part of this, 10 free assets packs have been released on Unreal Engine Marketplace--more to come.

The programs Mixer 2020 and Bridge 2020 will also be free later.

Forgot to post about the Packt free week. It's already near it's end.

And though not free, Fanatical has a Unity Game Development eBook Bundle for $7.19 after the Black Friday coupon for 15 Packt books (downloads through Fanatical, not Packt).
