The release of Grand Theft Auto V «next gen» was limited to the next generation of consoles and we already had the opportunity to see that the differences it brought compared to the original were not as great as they might have liked, and I also told you that this version did not look Well compared to the various mods that were available for the original version on the PC, and it made the game approached photorealism in some aspects.

This is because the Grand Theft Auto V «next gen» has nothing to do with the mods that are available in most cases for free for the original PC. I told you then, it didn’t make sense make this title compatible. The fact is that the new ESRB list has again indicated a possible release of Grand Theft Auto V “next gen” on the PC and indicates that its announcement will take place “immediately”.

Because it wasn’t confirmed by Rockstar, we have to take it as a “rumor”, even if we have to give it the value it deserves, because its source is not an anonymous tweet, but the information comes from the Entertainment Software Rating Board (ESRB). ), and therefore He has quite a lot of credibility. On the other hand, you also have to think that eventually launching Grand Theft Auto V «next gen» on the PC is positive for Rockstar, because it would translate into higher revenues.

#GTA V ESRB has recently been re-evaluated on the PC and the game is now released for the PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X | S, suggesting that the content has been added to the #GTA V and #GTAOnline on next-generation consoles, they may soon arrive on the PC.

Grand Theft Auto The “next gen” on the PC might make sense

I know it sounds like a contradiction, but it’s not, and I’ll explain why. Grand Theft Auto The “next gen” for the PC wouldn’t make sense because it came on a next-generation console, but it might be interesting if Rockstar released An improved compatible version that includes at least the following changes:

• Improved and enhanced ray tracing, applied to global lighting, shadows and reflections.
• DLSS support on NVIDIA GeForce RXT and AMD FSR graphics cards.

With these two enhancements, Grand Theft Auto V “next gen” could open a gap in the PC world, and if it allows mods to be installed, it would be a bomb. Imagine that title improved by some of the most demanding modes moment a DLSS or FSR supportedit would be fantastic.

We do not yet have details of the minimum and recommended requirements that Grand Theft Auto V «next gen» could have, but it is clear that we will need a strong team and that you will need to have the RTX 20 series or Radeon RX 6000 to activate ray tracing.
