GTA 5 PC Update for March 4 Brings Current-Gen Console Features; Oscar Guzman Flies Again Mission Now Live in GTA Online
[summaraize]
GTA 5 just got a massive update on PC, which finally brings the game’s version up to par with the next-gen update released exclusively on PS5 and Xbox Series a few years ago.
This update has more, though. Now available on all platforms is a brand-new GTA Online mission, Oscar Guzman Flies Again.
GTA 5 Free PC Upgrade Adds Next-Gen Enhancements
For those who own GTA 5 on either Steam, Epic Games Store, or the Rockstar Launcher, you’ll be glad to know that the next-gen update is finally available on PC. The update is entirely free for those who own the game and include the following features:
- Ray tracing features only available on PC such as ambient occlusion and global illumination — plus ray traced shadows and reflections first debuted on consoles
- Support for AMD FSR1 and FSR3, and NVIDIA DLSS 3
- Faster loading times using SSD and DirectStorage on supported devices and configurations
- Enhanced support for higher resolutions, higher aspect ratios, and higher framerates
- DualSense® controller support, with adaptive triggers
- Enhanced audio with support for Dolby Atmos and improved fidelity of speech, cinematics, and music
All I can say is it’s about damn time, and I’m glad to finally see these features (and more) arrive on PC after so many years.
Elsewhere, GTA: Online also received an update on all platforms, bringing the following new content:
