Rockstar Enhances GTA 5 Edition on Steam

Exciting news for PC gamers—Rockstar is gearing up to roll out a significant upgrade for *Grand Theft Auto 5* as it prepares to launch the enhanced edition on Steam. After observing updates in the Rockstar Launcher, where the original game was renamed, the same changes have now been mirrored on Steam.

In your Steam library, you'll notice the original version of the game has been rebranded to "Grand Theft Auto 5 Legacy," while the new iteration is labeled "Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced." This distinction makes it easier for you to choose between the classic and the updated experience.

The pre-download for *GTA 5 Enhanced* is now available on Steam, and you'll need about 91.69 GB of free storage space to get it ready. Mark your calendars, because the next-gen update, which brings enhancements previously seen on consoles, is slated for release on March 4.

Here's the best part: Rockstar isn't pulling the plug on the legacy version of *GTA 5* and *GTA Online*. This means you can keep enjoying the classic experience if that's what you prefer. Alternatively, you can switch over to the enhanced edition to take advantage of the improved features and performance.
