Rockstar Games will allow players to upgrade older versions of Grand Theft Auto V for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X / S for free just months before the launch of GTA VI. Starting June 18th, players with any version of GTA V on PS4 or the digital version on Xbox One can get the current-gen version of the game at no additional cost.

If you haven’t upgraded your copy of GTA V yet, this free update saves you from buying a whole new copy of the game for $39.99 or paying an upgrade fee. Rockstar announced the news as part of an update to GTA Online, which will add the ability to carry out heists at the Kortz Center in July.

We’re still waiting on another trailer for GTA VI ahead of its November 19th release date. There’s still no word on how much GTA VI will cost, but other developers are already adjusting their game release schedules to avoid a clash with the highly anticipated title.
