After over two years of anticipation, PC players of Grand Theft Auto V are finally set to receive a major update that aligns the game closely with its console counterparts. Mark your calendars for March 4, as this update introduces features that were initially exclusive to the native PS5 and Xbox Series versions released in 2022. The best part? All current players will enjoy this upgrade at no extra cost, with their progress in both GTA Online and Story Mode seamlessly transferring over.
The lion's share of the upgrade is dedicated to GTA Online, bringing a wealth of content previously inaccessible to PC players. This includes the introduction of the GTA+ subscription on PC, which offers numerous perks such as accelerated profit collection from in-game businesses. Rockstar Games has also enhanced anti-cheat measures to ensure a fairer gameplay environment.

Alongside new content, the update promises significant graphical enhancements. However, be prepared for an increase in system requirements. Players with hardware unable to support the updated version can continue playing the older version, which will still receive support from the developers. It's important to note, though, that there won't be any cross-version support, so playing across different versions won't be possible. Keep this in mind when deciding which version to stick with.
