Nice, was waiting to play this on PC to finish this, but never really wanted to spend money on it since I could technically play it on Xbox One via gameshare. Now I'll get some mods and and it'll run and look way better. Thanks epic.

Got em all myself since they started and only bought one, Borderlands 3. Was well after launch and I just couldn't wait, and had some friends playing so I pulled. Don't regret it, loved the game from start to finish.

Smart as hell.

A new batch of people to pour money into the MTX, but they get a great game for free.

I don´t think they expect to be getting mtx money from this, they are sending GTA Online to die, cheating is not that bad right now, but after the giveaway, will certain be in every server, Epic probably paid an absurd amount for it, game still top 15 in global top sellers on Steam.

GTA5 on PS3 was the first game in the series I ever finished. Really enjoyed it! Friend at 2K sent me a PC code back around launch and I played it a little bit to check out the performance differences, which was significant. Even though I already have it for PC, I think this is a cool freebie!

I'm quite pleased: I played it on PS3 and while it was amazing for the time, I saw the upgraded PS4 version and later on PC, I though I'd like to play it again, but prettier. This is good.

I always put off GTA V because I much prefer Saints Row and its character creator, but maybe I'll finally try.

gnarly, they're really pulling out the big guns

Giving RDR2 would be pulling big guns not giving away 5 year old game that is sold everywhere for 10$ on sale and 30$ regularly.


Also fair warning to everyone who gets game for free on Epic store, GTA Online is full of cheaters that can compromise you and your accounts and things will only get worse with this giveaway. If you can stick to your friends.

Or go into the world of private RP servers with FiveM. I mean GTAV is the #2 game on twitch by viewership and the vast majority of that is people playing on RP servers.

The Server I play on can have 256 people online per server. Server 1 is Los Santos and the GTAV map. Server 2 which is database Linked is Liberty City GTAIV map in the GTAV Engine. So people can go back and forth between cities etc

hmm tempted to actually redeem this one since I can probably just use Rockstar Launcher in the future

Eh most people just want to have fun and not do RP. That is why it is big issue, especially now that cheaters can get free accounts.

well i won't buy any game there anymore and the reason i bought D2 and WD2 becouse the pricing in Uplay in € and in Epic is much cheaper for me
and Star wars was 13$ and i haven't played yet

Only bought Borderlands 3 with that coupon discount only costed about £16 plus you got Fortnite free borderlands bundle skin with it if you purchase through EGS
yeah i think there's a lot of people only Use the store for free Games like myself and even i didn't play them

What's shitty about it? It's a perfectly fine launcher. Perhaps one day you might try it and see how OK it is.

Since it's going through Rockstar services, I assume online works between Steam/EGS?

Also, I'm interested in doing heists with friends. Are they available straight away or will I need to buy something more or grind levels?

Normally you need to do a big grind to get an expensive apartment, but if this is the Premium Online Edition as the article suggests, it comes with all you need to start a heist.

I feel like I should claim this because what a deal but also I've never had interest, and then I'd own GTAV and it's fun to be able to say you don't own GTAV, lol

I wish I could transfer my PS3 online character, he's loaded with millions of credits. Though, what would you even do with credits? I remember just trying to order hits on random people from my apartment and being bored of it.

Nice. I have 3 copies of GTAV already, and I'll still take this one. If it's free, I want it.

Nice! Shall grab this when it unlocks. Originally played it on PS3 and always held off getting on PC for that reason.

Looks like I might play GTAV at last then. It being free was the only way that was going to happen lol.

Now to clear some space on my hard drive ....
