After over two years of anticipation, PC gamers can finally rejoice as Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) is set to receive a major update on March 4. This eagerly awaited update will align the PC version closely with its console counterparts, specifically the PS5 and Xbox Series versions that debuted in 2022. The best part? All current players will receive this update at no additional cost, with seamless transfer of progress in both GTA Online and the Story Mode, requiring no extra action from the player's side.
The lion's share of this upgrade is dedicated to GTA Online, introducing a wealth of content previously exclusive to console players. This includes the much-anticipated GTA+ subscription service now available on PC, offering a range of perks like accelerated profit collection from in-game businesses. Rockstar Games has also fortified the game's anti-cheat measures to ensure a fairer gaming experience for all.

Alongside new content, the update will enhance the game's graphics significantly. However, this comes at the cost of increased system requirements. Players with hardware that can't support the updated version have the option to continue playing the older version, which Rockstar will keep supporting. It's important to note, though, that there will be no cross-version play, meaning players on different versions won't be able to play together. This is a crucial consideration for those planning to dive back into the world of GTA V.
