The current-gen version will be available on Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5, but may not benefit from many of the next-gen capabilities. While the Xbox Series X will not improve frame rate, it will improve loading times alongside every game on Xbox Series X. It seems players may have to wait until 2021 to experience the full next-genGTA 5enhancements on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X.

Rumors suggest that the enhanced version ofGTA 5will retail at full price with no free upgrade. However, a leak from French Retailer Micromania suggests that PS4 users will receive afree upgrade to theGTA 5PS5 version. Unlike Microsoft, Sony does not directly offer free upgrades, but developers have offered free upgrades for games likeAssassin’s Creed Valhalla,Dirt 5,Horizon Forbidden West, and more. Most cross-gen games are offering free upgrades, so Rockstar will likely offer the free upgrade at risk of receiving backlash from fans.

GTA 5will be available on next-gen consoles using backwards compatibility, but according to the rumors will not look any different. However, PC players are using mods to preview what a next-gen enhanced version may look like. A recentGTA 5mod utilizes ray-tracingand ambient occlusion to make the graphics much better. The mod renders the environment more realistic, and if the next-gen enhanced version can utilize Xbox Series X ray-tracing, it will be a massive improvement upon the 30 FPS cap it will supposedly have on launch day.

GTA 5is one of the most played game of all-time, so many are watching the game’s transition to next-gen closely. Combined with the anticipation ofGTA 6, there are high expectations for Rockstar heading into 2021.

Grand Theft Auto 5is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One. PS5 and Xbox Series X versions are in development.
