After over two years, Grand Theft Auto V on PC is finally getting a major update, bringing it largely in line with the console versions. Mark your calendars: March 4th is the day! This update incorporates features from the native PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions released in 2022. Best of all, it's a free upgrade for all current players, with seamless transfer of progress in both GTA Online and Story Mode – no extra steps required.

The most significant improvements are in GTA Online, where a wealth of previously unavailable content for PC players is now being added. The GTA+ subscription service will also launch on PC, offering perks like significantly accelerated business profit collection. Rockstar Games has also bolstered anti-cheat measures for a fairer playing experience.

Expect noticeable graphical enhancements with this update, but be aware that this comes with increased system requirements. Players with hardware unable to meet the new specifications can continue playing the older version, which will remain supported. However, it's important to note there will be no cross-version support; playing together across different versions will not be possible.
