Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced: A Decade of Visual Evolution

Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced Edition, Rockstar's next-gen update for PC, has finally arrived. This release boasts significant graphical improvements and new features, including full DualSense controller support, promising an enhanced experience for PC players.

Key enhancements include ray-traced reflections, redesigned vehicles, and numerous smaller visual refinements. GameV, a popular YouTube channel, recently released a side-by-side comparison video showcasing the graphical evolution over the past 12 years. The improvements are most striking in low-light conditions, such as rainy nights or shadowy areas, where ray tracing and global illumination truly shine. Under bright sunlight, the differences are less noticeable.

Despite a strong launch—peaking at over 187,000 concurrent players on Steam, exceeding the standard edition's recent peak of 184,000—player reception has been mixed. The game currently holds a 56% positive rating on Steam. Many players question the update's value, citing relatively subtle visual enhancements. Further criticism targets DualSense controller issues and glitches related to transferring characters from the original GTA Online. While some players report successful transfers, others continue to experience persistent bugs.
