What Grand Theft Auto V’s PC update says about furnishing older games with current tech
Despite being a decade old, the PC version of Grand Theft Auto V is getting updates. And that's smart for the future of the series.
But that may be precisely why they are so well-equipped to show why updating older titles, especially as Grand Theft Auto VI looms, can still be a boon for the bottom line. In this update, which was paid on consoles but is free on PC, Rockstar is including PC-specific features like ray tracing with ambient occlusion and global illumination, support for modern frame generation through Nvidia DLSS 3 and AMD FSR3, higher resolutions, and newer audio technology. Sending a message to early buyers that they do not need to worry about the new release keeping up with hardware because Rockstar will update the game for newer GPUs and feature sets is a selling point.
