Rockstar Games has announced a free upgrade option for Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V), enabling players to transition their game to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles without incurring additional costs. This complimentary upgrade will become available to eligible players starting June 18th.
Players who currently possess any physical or digital copy of GTA V on PlayStation 4, or the digital version on Xbox One, qualify for this free transition to the enhanced current-generation version.

The provision of these free upgrades occurs in the months leading up to the anticipated launch of GTA VI.
According to The Verge, this offers a significant benefit for players looking to experience GTA V on newer hardware without further expenditure.
