For now, Rockstar seems content in driving more value out of the eight-year-old GTA 5 and its online-only counterpart GTA Online that has grossed billions of dollars in microtransactions. The November 11 GTA V release date announcement for PS5 and Xbox Series S/X came alongside the annual earnings report of Rockstar Games' parent company Take-Two Interactive on Tuesday that featured no new info on the long-anticipated GTA 6. Rockstar didn't detail the new features coming to GTA 5 and GTA Online, though it did tease “fun surprises” related to GTA 3 as it celebrates its 20th anniversary this year.
Rockstar Games announced Tuesday that the “expanded and enhanced” versions of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online would release in late 2021 on next-gen consoles, over eight years on from the games' release on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 - and in turn, bringing the famed title to a third generation of consoles. GTA 5 now has a PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X release date: November 11.
