If it's not GTA V it's probably a big game.
Epic tweeted this May 7th:

And then proceeds to add a countdown in the free games section:

Would be an asshole move to not give a big game after all this hype.

imagine it's Fortnite with some new Season-Pass for all of us ^^

Still don't think it's GTAV but maybe something nice.
Maybe some Mafia game with the remaster around the corner or outer wilds or obervation with the exclusive deal running out.

It seems too good to be true. I hope it's true, so I can finally try the famous GTA Online that everyone was and is talking about, even today.

Probably a bad translation. In russian its "A mystery game"

I think you are right, why they would translate in into polish with different meaning.

GTA 5 is still in steam's top sellers. So it is doubtful that it will be given for free even for seprate launcher.

I wish to get GTA Liberty City Stories and Vice City Stories on Epic for free - that would be a way better than GTA V :)

That would be nice. Bought them (Green Pepper) and couldn't get them to run because it kept asking for my Microsoft Live Account and couldn't connect to the servers :/

As the owner of a copy of gta v, I can only say if that is true, it sounds like releasing a horde of trolls. There're already tons of idiots (in a generous calculation, one for every four players), this just can multiply them to the infinite.
It different to the operatio of CA and Sega with Shogun II, that put a big bag of blood in the dead multiplayer of the game
PD: GTA V it's a enjoyable game with random people, but specially with friends... even with your idiots friends Xd

It's been removed but I can confirm that it did say that GTA V will be available on the EGS till the 21st.

This was a BIG slip up as it was tweeted way too early. Now the question is will it actually launch on the EGS. These types of slip ups can cause a studio/publisher to change their mind, although I think it's a slim possibility it will actually do that.

Sometimes I wonder if these "accidents" are /really/ accidental, or if it's stealth marketing. Tease a 'secret" game, then let the news "slip" and suddenly everybody's talking about it.

That's definitely possible. This is something that would generate a large amount of buzz in gaming news.

GTA V is the 4th most popular game on Steam with a peak of 190k players in the last 30 days on Steam according to Steam Charts for GTA V and about 80k people playing this moment. Adding GTA V to the EGS for free will definitely bring in the masses to Epic's store.

I still think it's not 100% confirmed. It's kind of too good to be true.

Nice! I wanted to buy GTA V but not at the price R$tar was asking on.
Here's what I'll do: Claim on Epic Store, connect with R$tar social account; Install and play using that. Un-install Epic Store.
Win, Win, Win!
