Rockstar's revamped Grand Theft Auto 5, launched on Steam in March, hasn't exactly received a warm welcome. The "Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced" edition boasts a mixed user review rating on Steam, with only 54% of the 19,772 reviews registering as positive. This is a stark contrast to the original GTA 5, which held a "very positive" rating before being delisted at Rockstar's request. In fact, this Enhanced edition currently holds the dubious distinction of being the lowest-rated GTA title on Steam, trailing even Grand Theft Auto III – The Definitive Edition at 66% positive reviews.
This free upgrade for PC players includes features previously exclusive to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of GTA Online, such as Hao's Special Works upgrades, new vehicles, animal encounters, and GTA+ Membership access. Improved graphics and faster loading times are also touted. Existing GTA 5 PC owners can upgrade and migrate their Story Mode and Online progress.

However, the account migration process is proving problematic for many players, fueling much of the negative feedback. Numerous "most helpful" reviews cite failed migrations, exemplified by error messages like: “The GTA Online profile associated with this Rockstar Games account is not eligible for migration at this time.” This has led to significant frustration, with players expressing anger at the potential loss of hundreds of hours of gameplay. Comments range from disappointment to outright rage, with some players vowing to stick with the legacy version until GTA 6's release.
Despite these issues, GTA 5 Enhanced remains incredibly popular on Steam, peaking at 187,059 concurrent players since launch. This success, however, hasn't quelled concerns about the upcoming GTA 6 PC release, with some fearing that these issues might foreshadow similar launch problems for the highly anticipated sequel.
AnswerSee ResultsCurrently, GTA 6 is slated for a Fall 2025 release on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S only. A former Rockstar developer recently attempted to explain the delayed PC release, urging patience from PC gamers. Further news includes Take-Two's response to concerns about GTA Online's future after GTA 6's launch, and their lawsuit against PlayerAuctions for unauthorized GTA 5 content sales. Finally, Rockstar's recent acquisition and renaming of Video Games Deluxe to Rockstar Australia rounds out the recent news.
