Grand Theft Auto V comes to Game Pass for PC and console

Grand Theft Auto V is one of the best selling games of all time, having shifted well over 200 million copies since launching back in September 2013. Still, the game continues to sell to this day and if you are one of the few who has never picked it up, you'll soon be able to play the game via Game Pass.

Last week, Microsoft announced the next wave of titles for Xbox Game Pass, but it turns out the company had one surprise up its sleeve. While not announced alongside the other games coming this month, Microsoft has confirmed that Grand Theft Auto V will be returning to Game Pass for console and PC on the 15th of April.

Better yet, this is the newer Expanded & Enhanced edition of the game, which includes ray-traced graphics and other improvements. This version of the game has been available on Xbox Series X/S consoles for a while now, but it only just landed on PC this year, so PC gamers can jump in and check out the improved graphics for the first time.

As always, don't expect GTA V to stay in the Game Pass library forever. The game has joined and left the library of numerous subscription services over the years, including Game Pass and PlayStation Plus. Typically, Take-Two likes to give these services three to six months of access before pulling, so we expect to see GTA V removed from the library before Grand Theft Auto 6 arrives later this year.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
