Hi, user4000 !!
To own a site with a custom domain on Wix, upgrading to a premium plan is the only option. Additionally, if the domain you want is already owned by someone else in the world, you cannot obtain the exact same custom domain. The only way is to wait for that person to release the domain. However, it is entirely possible for you to create a Wix account with a free domain and operate a free Wix site. 
I’ve faced something similar when planning a gaming site the free plan works for simple setups, but custom domains often push you to upgrade, especially if the domain is already taken. For example, when I set up ropeherroapk.com, I used a temporary subdomain to organize content and test everything before considering a premium domain.
If you’re building a gaming site on Wix, I’d recommend keeping the navigation simple and focusing on categories like platforms, genres, and game pages. I’ve also been working on a gaming site, ziperto.app, and found that a clean structure makes it much easier for users to find what they’re looking for.
