After over two years, the wait is finally over for PC players of Grand Theft Auto V. A major update scheduled for March 4 will bring the PC version up to speed with the PS5 and Xbox Series versions released in 2022. The best part? This update is free for all current players, and your progress in both GTA Online and the Story mode will seamlessly transfer without any extra steps required.
The bulk of this upgrade targets GTA Online, introducing a wealth of content that was previously exclusive to console players. PC gamers will now have access to all these exciting additions. Additionally, the GTA+ subscription service, which offers perks like accelerated profit collection from in-game businesses, will now be available on PC. Rockstar Games has also stepped up their game by enhancing anti-cheat measures to ensure a fairer playing field.

Alongside the new content, the update will introduce significant graphical enhancements, though this comes with a catch: system requirements will increase. Players with hardware that can't meet these new demands can opt to continue playing the older version, which will still receive support from the developers. However, it's important to note that there won't be any cross-version support, meaning players on different versions won't be able to play together. Keep this in mind when deciding whether to upgrade.
