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 PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions released in 2022, and it's completely free for all current players. Your progress in both GTA Online and Story Mode will seamlessly transfer—no extra steps required.
The most significant improvements are in GTA Online, where a wealth of previously unavailable content for PC players is being added. The GTA+ subscription service will also launch on PC, offering various perks such as significantly accelerated business profit collection. Rockstar Games has also bolstered anti-cheat measures for a fairer gaming experience.

While the update delivers substantial graphical enhancements, it also raises the system requirements. Players with hardware that can't handle the updated version can continue playing the older version, which will remain supported. However, it's important to note that cross-version play will not be supported, meaning players on different versions won't be able to play together.
