It seems like the leaks were right. You can now get GTA V: Premium Edition for free over on the Epic Games Store. In the first few hours that it came out, Epic's servers became overwhelmed and no one could get on. Luckily, it seems like that has now (mostly) passed and you can now claim this awesome free game. This isn't the standard edition though, but the Premium Edition. It gets you not only access to the story and Online, but it also gives you $1,000,000 in Online around a week after you start playing it to help you out. That's really cool!
Claiming this free games also gives you a $10 coupon for the Epic Games Store which combined with their current Mega-sale... you can get some really really good deals on games this week!
That's not all though.
It seems like Epic will be giving away another great AAA game next week in the form of another mystery game. We have no idea what game it'll be, but it'll most likely be another great game as the lesser known indie games aren't usually listed as a "mystery game".
What do I think the next Epic game will be?
If I had to guess, I'll say The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.
The reason I say this is because it's currently on sale for just $14.99 and with the $10 coupon you can buy it for just $4.99. It's really cheap as is, but it's a game that many people enjoyed and it's an older game having come out in 2015. It meets their kind of criteria for what we could expect. Maybe I'm wrong though. Only time will tell.
Damn, I can't even open Epic right now.
These people are crazy with their giveaways.
Yeah it's pretty crazy. It'll probably be like this again next week when they release their next big free mystery game. Luckily, I was able to find a window when it was working to claim mine, but since I already owned the game, it won't really benefit me much but it's free so why not lol.
You do have an entire week to claim it so no need to worry if you can't get it today due to their current server issues.
Can't wait for that next one. Need that dopamine blast lol
Right after posting that comment, I retried and it let me through, but on some different server probably because the language was non-understandable. But I knew enough after claiming so many free games of where to navigate to. And finally, bagged it.
Gotta get dat free stuff no matter what amirite
Very nice! Yeah, I'd read some reports that some users were getting redirected to working servers even if they were in different languages. I was just playing GTA Online a bit this past week trying to get back into it, but now it'll be a bit crazy to see how packed GTA's online servers are after this happened lol.
That's exactly what I was thinking, so many users. Good for GTA too.
I just posted about this as well... I really hope that you are right about the next game being Witcher 3
