GTA 5 Enhanced Edition Joins Xbox Game Pass PC in 2 Weeks

Microsoft has announced that Rockstar Games' iconic title, Grand Theft Auto 5, will be making its way to Xbox Game Pass, while the enhanced version of GTA 5 will be available on Game Pass for PC starting April 15. This exciting news was shared via an Xbox Wire post, highlighting the game as the marquee title for the Wave 1 April 2025 lineup.

The PC version of GTA 5 on Game Pass will feature the newly released Enhanced update, which Rockstar introduced in early March. This update brings a host of new features to the game, including the latest addition, Oscar Guzman Flies Again. This update allows players to take control of the McKenzie Field Hanger in Grapeseed, engage in new arms trafficking missions, and pilot new aircraft, adding fresh excitement to the gameplay experience.

The return of GTA 5 to Game Pass after its previous removal is highly anticipated. However, the excitement is tempered for some fans, particularly those eager to play the Enhanced version on PC. Released on March 4 as a free update, the Enhanced version introduced new vehicles, performance enhancements at Hao’s Special Works, animal encounters, and visual improvements. Despite these additions, the update has faced criticism, becoming Rockstar's worst-reviewed title on Steam due to ongoing issues with account migration, which prevents players from transferring their GTA Online profiles to the new version.

New players diving into the world of Los Santos for the first time should have a smooth experience. However, those looking to migrate their existing GTA 5 Online accounts to the Enhanced version may encounter difficulties, as the account migration problems persist.
