Grand Theft Auto V Coming this Fall to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC

 

Today we're proud to announce that the critically-acclaimed and record-breaking Grand Theft Auto V is coming this fall to PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.

Grand Theft Auto V will take full advantage of the power of the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC with across-the-board graphical and technical improvements to deliver a stunning new level of detail. Increased draw distances, finer texture details, denser traffic, and enhanced resolutions all work together to bring new life to the cities, towns, deserts and oceans of Rockstar North?s epic reimagining of Southern California.

Switch between the interconnected lives of Michael, Trevor and Franklin as they embark on a series of heists across Los Santos and Blaine County in the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover.

The new generation upgrades also extend to Grand Theft Auto Online, an ever-evolving Grand Theft Auto universe. Rise through the criminal ranks by banding together to complete Jobs for cash, purchase properties, vehicles and character upgrades, compete in traditional competitive modes, or create your own content to play and share with the Grand Theft Auto community.

All new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations will also be available for the PlayStation 4 system, Xbox One and PC with much more to come. In addition, the current community of players will have the ability to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC.

 

Grand Theft Auto V for PC will also feature a video editor designed for advanced movie-making.

Really?  Why is that? 

The 3D GTA series have always been intensive on the respective consoles.

 

I personally expect the PS4 to run this at 900p @ 30 fps and the Xbox One to run it at 720p @ 30 fps.

GTA 5 Xbox One's technical improvements revealed

 

"Enhanced resolutions", you say, Rockstar?

 

Rockstar has shed a little more light on the Xbox One version of Grand Theft Auto 5, which was announced overnight. Are you a fan of "detail"? Because there's a "stunning new level" of the stuff in GTA 5 for the next generation Xbox, apparently.

 

According to a release, the game boasts "across-the-board graphical and technical improvements", such as "increased draw distances, finer texture details, denser traffic, and enhanced resolutions work together to bring new life to the cities, towns, deserts and oceans of Rockstar North's epic reimagining of Southern California".

 

You can expect "the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover". Details! There's just no telling where they'll end up in GTA 5.

GTA Online reaps the same benefits, obviously, plus a few of its own. Sign in, and you'll be able to tap into "all new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations". Players will be able to transfer their Xbox 360 (or PS3) saves to the new game.

Check out the trailer below to see all these enhancements in action.

Is it too soon to ask what the systems will be able to do?  

 

 

1080p for BOTH PS4 abd Xbox one?

 

Possible, though also suspect this is similar to Watch Dogs, as in just a jazzed up version of previous generation versions. So 900p/792p or something like that for PS4/X1. Will look better than PS3/360, but if you want the absolute finest than PC for sure. Though with that you run the risk of Rockstar's impeccable PC release quality record....

 

Who knows, maybe i'm wrong and they did more to rebuild it for PS4/X1. There's no doubt in my mind those two can run GTA V in 1080/60p, unless Rockstar insist on some crazy lighting effects and specular this and that :D

They have pre orders up already so the specs should be out there somewhere. Kind of weird to have pre orders and not let people know what they're getting themselves into.

 

None of the pre order sites have specs though.

 

Hopefully the reqs aren't as insane as Shadow of Mordor. But unlike Shadow of Mordor this game kind of looks like those sort of reqs might make sense.

 

Edit: I found this but I have no idea if they are official.. seems like it's mostly speculation.

And idea what the PC spec requirements for this is going to look like?

 

Maximum 4GB VRAM :D

I still remember creating this text file and trying all of the combinations until one worked heh heh

The changes would have to be incredible for that, considering the Xbox 360 and PS3 both ran it at 720@30FPS

You're forgetting this isn't a direct port, they're increasing the visual fidelity a lot.

Not to be a downer or a cynic, saying this with pure kindness - please don't get your hopes up too much. PC will look much better than any console version, but don't expect worlds apart, really. You know this to be true! :/

How is game save stuff going to work? I am bit confused about it.

Will it just be PS3 to PS4 and Xbox 360 to Xbox One, or will I be able to take my progress from my Xbox 360 to my PS4?

Its online saves only, so you can take it from 360 to PS4 if you wish. It supposedly gives you the option of bringing your save over from a previous one linked to your socialclub account.

Does it work both ways, do you know? Can you make progress on the One version on GTA online and then carry on playing one the 360 version?

Am I missing something?  This video has been posted on here and on Reddit.  Where does it say anywhere what system that footage is taken from?  

 

The Source of the article is an xbox page, but the video doesn't say it's just xbox one. 

 

Same video was shown during Sonys E3 conference and it said at the end it was all PS4 footage. So I can only assume that, but this video does seem to be just a marketing ad to say it's coming.

I dont know 100% but id say no. Im pretty sure it will be a one off upgrade from one last gen to current gen

This is kinda my gut feeling too.

 

This is a must have buy for me (not sure which system yet). I absolutely love exploring the map and the increase in graphic quality along would be enough to make me purchase.

    • Zed 1.7.2 has landed with updated OpenCode models, bug fixes and other improvements by David Uzondu Zed 1.7.2 recently landed on the stable release channel, bringing a host of AI-related features including automatic context compaction and settings-based skill management, along with other things like better Markdown preview rendering and custom git commands in the graph view. Starting with the AI stuff, the developers introduced "/compact", a command that basically summarizes your conversation history on demand. This tool prevents your active chat window from hitting token limits by compressing older parts of the dialogue into a brief overview. In addition to that, the team relocated skill management to the settings UI, improving how the application communicates errors regarding those skills, and updated the OpenCode model roster to support DeepSeek V4 Flash, MiniMax M3, Qwen 3.7 Plus, and Nemotron 3 Ultra Free. External agent users can also monitor context window cost metrics and delete individual sessions directly from their history. Right-clicking ref labels in the git graph now opens a context menu that runs different actions against selected targets, kind of how VS Code does it. Here are some of the bug fixes this new release brings: The active agent fails to auto-select when creating a new git worktree. A scrollbar unexpectedly appears on wrapped code blocks in the agent chat. Collapse indicators for project headers appear when performing sidebar searches. Bracketed ellipsis title prefixes fail to show the ellipsis icon properly. Project icons render incorrectly in the recent projects picker. Diff hunk controls appear inside non-editable commit view multibuffers. The software update button hangs indefinitely on the downloading stage. Restoring an agent terminal in a remote project triggers a sudden crash. Splitting a pane that contains an active commit view causes a crash. Linux Wayland freezes when trying to read the clipboard from laggy external apps. Zed is a "newish" code editor trying to break the massive stronghold VS Code has on the developer community. Funny enough, the editor was created by former GitHub employees who worked on the Atom text editor (which Microsoft killed in 2022, several years after it bought GitHub). The project officially hit version 1.0 back in April, introducing platform parity for Windows and Linux alongside deep support for DeepSeek-V4-Pro.
    • 26H2 absolutely will support ARM Windows just not on devices that came with 26H1. This is evident by the fact I am running 26H2, which on my MacBook Neo and Surface Pro 12 (inch), within a VM.

    • The FIFA World Cup is not US centric.
    • It’s amusing how Microsoft is pushing IT admins as if this was a major, game-changing update. In reality, it’s just an enablement package that bumps the build number, which is disappointing compared to the more substantial 22H2 and 24H2 releases. Technically, 25H2, 26H1, and the upcoming 26H2 are essentially the same, differing only in support schedules. They could have included the Windows K2 improvements here, but chose not to. The era of Windows being in the backburner continues, and this 26H2 release feels like an afterthought. Shame, Nadella, shame.
