The sixth post-launch update for GTA V Enhanced on PC has been released by Rockstar Games, marking a significant step in addressing the mixed reception the game has received since its launch in March. This latest patch arrives several weeks after the previous update, reflecting the developer’s commitment to enhancing user experience.
Both the standard and Enhanced versions of GTA V have received updates, with a primary focus on improving graphics in the Enhanced edition. Despite the efforts, the game has faced criticism from players, resulting in it becoming the lowest-rated GTA title on Steam, as fans express their dissatisfaction with various issues.
Patch Notes And Download Size
The new update varies in size, ranging from approximately 400 to 900 MB, depending on whether players access the game via the Rockstar Games Launcher, Steam, or Epic Games Store. The download will initiate automatically upon signing into the respective launcher. Rockstar has provided detailed patch notes for both versions on their support site, which include:
