Rockstar Games is preparing to launch “GTA VI” later this year, but before the new game debuts, the studio has taken the lead in bringing a very sincere update policy to players who are still active in “GTA V”. Rockstar officially announced today that players who own the PlayStation 4 or Xbox One digital version of “GTA V” launched in 2013 will be able to upgrade to the current generation console version for free without paying the original $40 upgrade fee.

In addition to the upgrade policy, Rockstar also simultaneously announced that “GTA Online” will launch a new “Coates Center Heist” event. This content will lead players and teams to infiltrate a well-known gallery in Pacific Cliff with the goal of stealing priceless international art. This type of large-scale robbery mission has always been one of the core gameplays of GTA Online, and this update also shows that Rockstar continues to invest resources in maintaining the popularity of the previous game before the launch of “GTA VI”.
Although the attention of players around the world has gradually turned to the next generation of “Grand Theft Auto VI”, Rockstar has obviously not slowed down the pace of updates to “GTA V” and “GTA Online”. According to current information, “GTA VI” is expected to be launched on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S platforms on November 19, 2026. As the launch time of the new game is approaching, this free upgrade will undoubtedly allow more players to return to Los Santos before entering the next generation, and welcome the new chapter of the series with the best image quality and performance.
