When is GTA 5 coming back to Xbox Game Pass?

GTA 5 is coming back to Xbox Game Pass on April 15. If you haven’t purchased the game yet and were looking forward to hitting the streets of Los Santos again on your Xbox or PC, you only have a little more than a week to wait at the time of writing.

For PC players, Microsoft and Rockstar Games have arranged a bonus as w🍬ellౠ.

Which GTA 5 edition can PC players play using Game Pass?

Rockstar has confirmed that you can play both the GTA V Enhanced and Legacy editions with PC Game Pass. You can even try the latest ဣfeatures, such as Hao’s Special Works Vehic𝔍les and more.

Both Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass Standard subscribers can access all console and PC editions. If you’re already playing GTA 5 Enhanced on Steam, you can check out our guide on how to get Hao’s Special Works car upgrade.

And in case you missed it, you can check out our guide on the difference between GTA 5 Enhanced and Legacy PC versions.

What online features can you access with GTA 5 Enhanced on PC?

According to the , “Everyone playing GTA V Enhanced on PC will have access to new vehicles and modifications, Chameleon Paints, and a bunch more, all in Hao’s Special Works.”

Naturally, if you play the Legacy version instead, you’ll miss out on these special features.

Is there a date when GTA 5 will be leaving Game Pass?

At the time of writing, no, Microsoft hasn’t confirmed an official date for the game leaving Game Pass.

However, the last time this game and Red Dead Redemption 2 were playable using Microsoft’s subscription system, the titles stayed for about six months before being rotated out of the roster. So it’s reasonable to expect a similar time window for GTA 5‘s second stint here.

If things go according to plan, by the time GTA V leaves Game Pass, you could very well be enjoying GTA 6 on your Xbox or PS5.
