Rockstar Games has stated that GTA V Expanded and Enhanced will arrive in March 2022.

It was initially slated for a 11 November 2021 release, but Rockstar Games changed it earlier this year. Its new release period is March 2022; the exact date isn't specified. That said, they released a trailer for it back in early September.

Rockstar Games only stated a few new changes, such as:

  • Seamless character transitions
  • Improved graphics
  • Enhanced gameplay
  • "And much more"

Hence, fans still don't know much about what GTA V Expanded and Enhanced offers over the previous versions.


The GTA V Expanded and Enhanced release period is March 2022

GTA V Expanded and Enhanced should arrive to the Xbox Series X|S and PS5 sometime in March 2022. It should include all of the Enhanced Edition's features, plus some of the previously mentioned minor improvements.

The gameplay trailer is only a minute long and does showcase some graphical improvements over the original game. It's worth noting that there is no mention of a PC release date.

Rockstar Games has stated:

"We look forward to sharing more details about these expanded and enhanced versions soon, including the new standalone version of GTA Online also coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in March."

It's been nearly two months since that Newswire post, and fans haven't gotten much news.

Rockstar Games has stated that the standalone version of GTA Online will be available for free for PlayStation 5 users for three months after its launch. This standalone version does not require GTA V Expanded and Enhanced or any prior version of the game.

The recent Take-Two earnings call mentions the game again by saying:

"Rockstar Games will have more details to share about these eagerly anticipated launches in the coming months."

That same earnings call also mentioned that GTA V has sold over 155M copies globally. They stated that they expect the game to continue selling well, although they don't give further details on what the GTA V Expanded and Enhanced will include.

The games that Take-Two expects to contribute heavily to the next fiscal year are:

  • NBA 2K
  • GTA Online
  • GTA V
  • Red Dead Redemption 2
  • Red Dead Online
  • Borderlands 3

GTA V is a 2013 game, so it's impressive to see it still going strong nearly a decade later. The GTA V Expanded and Enhanced will likely be a huge contributor to its sales, as it's introducing the game to a new, modern market.

Take-Two is still confident with a March 2022 release period.
