Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced Becomes Rockstar’s Lowest-Rated Game in Steam History

The Steam release of Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced faced a considerable backlash from players. Numerous technical issues and difficulties transferring progress to GTA Online fueled widespread dissatisfaction.

This negative sentiment was clearly reflected in overwhelmingly critical Steam reviews, dramatically impacting the game's rating. For a brief time, it even held the dubious distinction of being the lowest-rated Rockstar Games title on Steam.

While the rating has since improved slightly (currently at 50.59%), it remains the second-lowest rated Rockstar game on the platform, just above L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files (49.63%). This unfortunate ranking underscores the significant challenges developers face when releasing enhanced versions of established games.

The negative feedback highlights the crucial need for meticulous attention to technical details and seamless player transitions, particularly for a game as iconic as Grand Theft Auto 5. Rockstar Games is actively working on improvements, but the initial reception serves as a stark reminder of the high expectations surrounding their popular franchises.
