GTA 5: Here is how to get the game for free on Windows

Epic Games has teamed up with game publisher Rockstar Games to offer its flagship AAA game, GTA 5 for free. We have already covered the details that Epic Games revealed around the offer including the length of the sale. To recap, GTA 5 is available for free on the Epic Games Store on Windows-powered devices. This offer will go on for a week and then conclude on May 21. As part of the offer, Epic Games is selling GTA 5 Premium Edition. This edition comes with a $1,000,000 bonus in GTA Online as part of the Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack.

The company also confirmed that buys will be able to keep the game for good after the deal expires. This deal is part of the usual free game of the week on the Epic Games Store. For context, the company offers one game for free every week. This time it happens to be the extremely popular GTA 5. It is also interesting to note that players may not be able to purchase the game for free, immediately. This is because the Epic Games Store seems to be facing some issues due to “high traffic”. These problems are likely due to the interest around the game.

Epic Games Store acknowledged the problems on its official Twitter handle asking users to practice patience. However, one week is enough time for the company to fix the issues. Considering that the game store, Epic Store launcher is not as popular as Steam, we made a helpful, short guide. This will help you to navigate around the Epic Store to purchase, download, and install GTA 5 for free. Let’s get started.
