"GTA 5 Enhanced Edition Hits Xbox Game Pass for PC in 2 Weeks"

Microsoft is set to bring Rockstar Games’ iconic Grand Theft Auto 5 to Xbox Game Pass, with the enhanced version of GTA 5 making its way to Game Pass for PC on April 15. This exciting announcement was made through an Xbox Wire post, spotlighting the game as the headline act in the Wave 1 April 2025 lineup. The inclusion of the PC version with the latest Enhanced update, which was released in early March, adds an extra layer of allure to this announcement.

According to the official Xbox description, regardless of the platform you're playing on, you'll have access to the newest update, Oscar Guzman Flies Again. This update allows you to take control of the McKenzie Field Hanger in Grapeseed, engage in new arms trafficking missions, and pilot new aircraft, adding fresh dimensions to your gameplay experience.

The game’s reintroduction to Game Pass marks a significant moment, especially since it had been previously removed from the service. While this return is a cause for celebration, it's not without its challenges. The PC version of GTA 5 Enhanced, which became available on March 4, introduced a slew of new features including vehicles, performance upgrades at Hao’s Special Works, animal encounters, and visual enhancements. However, it also became Rockstar’s worst-reviewed title on Steam due to persistent account migration issues affecting GTA Online profiles.

New players diving into Los Santos for the first time should have a smooth experience. However, those looking to migrate their existing GTA Online accounts to the Enhanced version may encounter difficulties, as these issues remain unresolved.
