Rockstar Launches Enhanced GTA 5 Edition on Steam

by Henry May 04,2025

Exciting news for *Grand Theft Auto 5* enthusiasts on PC—Rockstar is gearing up to roll out a substantial upgrade with the launch of the enhanced edition on Steam. Recent updates on the Rockstar Launcher, where the original game was renamed, have now spread to Steam, signaling a big shift.

In your Steam library, you'll notice that the original game has been rebranded as "Grand Theft Auto 5 Legacy," while the new and improved version proudly wears the label "Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced." This move clearly distinguishes the two versions, making it easier for players to choose their preferred experience.

The pre-download for *GTA 5 Enhanced* is now available on Steam, and you'll need to clear out approximately 91.69 GB of space on your hard drive to get it ready. Mark your calendars for March 4, as that's when this next-gen update, complete with enhancements that were first introduced on consoles, will hit PC.

Don't worry if you're a fan of the classic experience—Rockstar isn't pulling the plug on the legacy version of *GTA 5* and *GTA Online*. This means you can continue to enjoy the original game, or you can make the switch to the enhanced edition for a fresh take with improved features and performance. The choice is yours, and with both versions available, everyone wins.
