GTA Online Expanded and Enhanced Edition promises the best-quality graphics of any GTA game so far, with 4K resolution and 60fps. The addition of HDR and ray-tracing will make the game brighter and more realistic, with high-quality reflections, lighting and textures.

The next-gen consoles will also provide players with much faster loading times than what fans are currently used to, translating into much shorter loading screens for jobs and GTA Online lobbies.

Along with these new graphical improvements, Rockstar Games will be incorporating new immersive 3D audio functionality. This new audio engine will allow for a much better surround-sound experience in the game.


Vehicles and locations

Gamers who have been paying attention to the news and leaks related to the GTA Online Expanded & Enhanced Edition will have likely heard about the newest vehicles. Five new cars with elite driving performance are being added to the Los Santos car meets as well as Hao's Special Works Auto Shop.

Finally, Rockstar has told fans that there could be changes to the map and some locations. These changes may not be as drastic as some players are hoping for, but we will have to wait and see the full extent of the modifications. At the very least, it would be great to have some more interior spaces added to the game, such as houses, shops, and more.


Exclusive Gifts & Content
