Epic Games continues its streak of killer freebies with Rockstar’s best-selling action-adventure game.
Every Thursday at 8 am PT, video game and software developer and publisher Epic Games offers players a new free game available via the Epic Games Store. Past freebies include popular titles such as Subnautica, The Messenger, Kingdom Come: Deliverance, and Steep just to name a few.
This week Epic Games is offering its biggest free download yet: Grand Theft Auto V. Originally released on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 back in 2013 followed by the PC in 2015, GTA V has since gone on to become one of the highest-grossing video game titles of all-time, due in no small part to Rockstar’s GTA Online service and lucrative microtransactions, referred to in-game as “Shark Cards.”
In 2019 modders began experimenting with a variety of VR solutions for the game, and in early 2020 creator, LukeRoss00 released an update to his R.E.A.L mod which addressed many of the existing issues present in competing for VR mods, including VR support for cut scenes, crucial fixes to the universal FOV, and other graphical improvements that bring the entirety of the GTA V experience to VR headsets.
So, interested in hitting the virtual streets of Los Santos in your SteamVR or Oculus headset? Download the Epic Games Store launcher and claim your free copy before May 21st. You can head here to learn more about how to download and install the R.E.A.L. VR mod.
What is 360 VR Video?
360 video is a video that is recorded in all directions at the same time with multiple cameras. The videos are stitched together either internally in the camera or externally using special software.
It then forms one spherical video that is controlled by the viewer, enabling them to look up, down, right or left at their discretion.
Is 360 Video Virtual Reality?
I want you to be the judge.
