PC users have been waiting for it for a long time
Grand Theft Auto is clearly one of the most important sagas in our media, and many of its deliveries are considered as part of the best games in history. Now we are waiting to receive GTA VI, a title that It is planned to be launched during the next year 2025although there have been rumors about a possible delay until 2026. This is precisely why it is somewhat curious that the fifth numbered installment of this saga (GTA V) is so topical, especially after the introduction of an anti-cheat that made it unplayable on Steam Deckand now with the leak of one of its biggest possible updates for its PC version.
During 2022, the versions of GTA V for the current generation of consoles (PS5 and Xbox Series) were released, but these improvements never came to the PC version. This surprised many users, and since then They have requested their arrival actively and passively.and right now it seems that their wishes are going to come true.
As confirmed by user Tez2 on X/Twitter, the metadata of the latest version of GTA V would offer clues that Rockstar has been working on a Gen9 (ninth generation of consoles) version of this title. This would mean that This update would include all the changes and improvements made to the PS5 and Xbox Series versions.which are relatively few, but relatively notable in the graphic and technical aspect.
A leftover metadata file indicates Rockstar has been working on a Gen9 version of #GTAV for PC since earlier this year.
The addition of BattlEye could be seen as preparations for the arrival of the Gen9 version on PC.
