Xbox Game Pass continues to solidify its reputation as a premier gaming subscription service, offering players an extensive library of high-quality titles across Xbox consoles, PC, and cloud streaming—all for a modest monthly fee. This month, the excitement reaches new heights with the announcement that the globally acclaimed Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5) will join the Game Pass lineup on April 15, 2025.
GTA 5 Enhanced Experience
In a recent blog post, Microsoft revealed that GTA 5 will be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, and, for the first time, on PC. The PC version will feature the Enhanced edition, which boasts significant graphical upgrades, faster loading times, and new content, elevating the gaming experience for both newcomers and long-time fans alike.

Subscribers will enjoy both the single-player campaign and the immensely popular GTA Online, which attracts millions of players daily. Additionally, the PC version will also include the original GTA 5 and GTA Online, catering to gamers with varying hardware capabilities.
This marks the third time GTA 5 has graced the Game Pass platform, but it is a notable first for PC Game Pass subscribers, who can access the Enhanced edition at no additional cost. Existing owners of the original GTA 5 will also have the opportunity to upgrade their copies for free.
April promises to be an exciting month for Game Pass subscribers, with a diverse array of new titles set to launch. Starting April 8, subscribers will gain access to South of Midnight, while all tiers—including Ultimate, PC, and Standard—will welcome Borderlands 3, Diablo 3, and several other titles, as detailed on the Xbox Wire website.
