As the court battle between Epic Games and Apple rage on, a new batch of unsealed documents revealed that Rockstar Games’ Grand Theft Auto 5 (also called GTAV, GTA5) was one of the biggest free draws for the Epic Games Store. In total, seven million people created Epic Game Store accounts to grab the game for free, a figure that also coincides with one of the largest spikes in GTA5 sales revenues ever since the game’s initial release way back in 2013.
