Microsoft is set to enhance the Xbox Game Pass lineup by adding Rockstar Games' blockbuster, Grand Theft Auto 5, and the newly updated GTA 5 Enhanced to Game Pass for PC on April 15. This exciting announcement, detailed in an Xbox Wire post, marks the highlight of the Wave 1 April 2025 offerings, coming just weeks before its launch. The PC version of GTA 5 on Game Pass will feature the recently released Enhanced update from early March, promising an upgraded experience for gamers.
In this latest update, dubbed Oscar Guzman Flies Again, players can explore new dimensions of gameplay by taking to the skies from the McKenzie Field Hanger in Grapeseed. This update introduces new arms trafficking missions, an array of new aircraft, and much more, ensuring that both new and returning players have fresh content to dive into.
The return of GTA 5 to Game Pass after its previous departure is highly anticipated. However, for many dedicated GTA fans, the news is bittersweet. The GTA 5 Enhanced update, released on PC on March 4, brought new vehicles, performance upgrades at Hao’s Special Works, animal encounters, and enhanced visuals. Despite these additions, the update has led to Rockstar's worst-reviewed title on Steam due to ongoing issues with account migration, affecting players' ability to transfer their GTA Online profiles to the new version.
Newcomers to the world of Los Santos should find the transition smooth, but returning players hoping to migrate their accounts to the Enhanced version may face challenges. The account migration issues remain unresolved, leaving many fans in limbo.
