Few games are as ubiquitous asGrand Theft Auto 5, a game that has become somewhat of its own pillar in the video game community. Not only did Rockstar’s “next-gen” open-world game take the series to new heights, but it also came alongside the debut of one of the industry’s most popular and profitable online components,GTA Online. Over the last decade, the game has continued to grow and expand, with new updates expanding onGTA 5’sselection of heists, cars, apartments, businesses, and much more. However, those on PC were missing chunks of new content added as part of an upgraded version of the game, something that has since been fixed withGTA 5’s Enhanced edition.

Other issues that have been fixed include a visual bug regarding the Avenger, one of thenumerous flying vehicles inGTA 5, and another that affected players using DLSS.
Another issue where the game would run out of VRAM has been fixed, as has one that would cause descriptions to go missing while inGTA 5’s pause menu. Keybinding issues have also been fixed, with players previously encountering problems when attempting to bind the T and Y keys.
