What’s one more copy between friends?
Rockstarhas announced a release datefor the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of what is arguably the company’s magnum opus:Grand Theft Auto V.The open-world crime epic — now one of the greatest-selling video games of all time — will bring its brand of mayhem to the next-gen platforms on November 11.
Originally released on August 10, 2025 for PS3 and Xbox 360,GTA Vwas an instant smash seller andhas continued to shift copies in its ensuing seven years, with an estimated 140 million units on the market.GTA Vtells the story of three very different hoodlums — Michael Townley, Franklin Clinton, and Trevor Philips — whose paths cross in a spiraling story of chaos, betrayal, and violence, all viewed with the series’ trademark satirical eye.
AlongsideGTA V, November 11 will see the world ofGTA Onlineopen up to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S players. The MMO — which has been a cash cow for Rockstar for many years thanks to a slew of paid expansions and microtransactions — will offer PS5 users their first three months of mayhem free of charge, before resuming its typical paid subscription service in February 2022.
Finally, Rockstar hinted that there were some “fun surprises” in store for the 20th anniversary of one of the single most influential release of all-time:Grand Theft Auto III. It is hinted that these surprises pertain specifically toGTA Onlineso, for now at any rate, it probably isn’t worth getting amped up for a full remaster/remake of the 2001 PS2/Xbox title.
