A deleted tweet suggests that GTA V will be the next free game on the Epic Games Store.
If you head over to the Epic Games Store site, you can see a mystery game window, which we’re set to learn more about later today. However, after rumours swirled yesterday, a deleted tweet from the Epic Games Store Twitter account all but confirmed that GTA V will be today’s mystery game.
Luckily, Twitter user Wario64 caught the tweet before it was deleted, and you can see the advertisement in full below. According to the tweet, you’ll be able to grab the game for free until May 21, and keep it forever.

GTA V is already available on PC via Steam and the Rockstar Games Launcher. It’s not clear just yet what additional content the game will arrive with – we’ll be sure to hear more about that when the news is revealed officially later today.
This follows the news from late April which saw GTA V leave Xbox Game Pass, being replaced by Red Dead Redemption 2 on May 7. If you’re looking for a reason to get into GTA V some seven years after its release, check out our review, where we called it a “preposterously enjoyable, landmark game.”
