GTA V Comes Back to Xbox Game Pass Today

Xbox Game Pass July 2023 wave 1 GTA V

GTA V is headlining the new Game Pass additions for the month of July. The cult-classic game is available starting today on Game Pass for Console, and it’s also available on Xbox Cloud Gaming.

The Xbox One version of GTA V previously came to Xbox Game Pass in April 2021, but this time the new Xbox Series X|S version of the game is available as well. This remastered version supports 60FPS gameplay, and there’s also a ray-tracing mode on Xbox Series X consoles. However, there’s no crossplay support between the Xbox One version of GTA V and the new Xbox Series X|S version of the game.
