Microsoft is set to bring Rockstar Games' iconic *Grand Theft Auto 5* to Xbox Game Pass and the enhanced version of GTA 5 to Game Pass for PC on April 15. This exciting addition to the Wave 1 April 2025 lineup was unveiled in an Xbox Wire post, highlighting that the service's biggest new title of the month is just around the corner. The PC Game Pass version of GTA 5 will feature the recently released Enhanced update from early March, adding a new layer of excitement for players.
"No matter what version you're playing, everyone will have access to *Oscar Guzman Flies Again*, the latest update where you can take to the skies — taking control of the McKenzie Field Hanger in Grapeseed," an official Xbox description states. "Play new arms trafficking missions, fly new aircraft, and more." This update promises a fresh set of experiences for both new and returning players.
GTA 5's return to Game Pass in two Tuesdays marks a significant moment after its previous removal from the service. However, the joy is somewhat tempered for some dedicated GTA fans, particularly those on PC. The GTA 5 Enhanced update, which arrived on PC on March 4, introduced new vehicles, performance upgrades at Hao's Special Works, animal encounters, and visual enhancements. Despite these additions, the update led to GTA 5 becoming Rockstar's worst-reviewed title on Steam due to ongoing issues with account migration, preventing players from transferring their GTA Online profiles to the new version.
For those new to Los Santos, this won't be much of a concern. However, returning players eager to migrate their accounts to the Enhanced version may find themselves facing challenges, as the account migration issues remain unresolved.
