Although there are cases of games that have had (and have) a bombproof longevity, we are sure that in the future the example of GTA V will be studied and how a delivery destined to be in force for six, seven or maybe eight years old, is on its way to turning ten and has become both a blessing and a problem for Rockstar: it is breaking records for video game revenue but, at the same time, it is causing no one to miss a future GTA VI .
GTA VI in development, but calmly
And it is that in the bowels of the North American company they have been wondering what to do with the next game in the franchise for a long time because bringing it to the market would mean, perhaps, having to retire or set aside a GTA Online that continues to sweep, raising millions of dollars a week and, most importantly, technically adapting to the most modern hardware such as those of PS5 and Xbox Series X | S. If you already did it on your move from PS3 and Xbox 360 to PS4 and Xbox One, how can you not repeat it now?
Thus, Rockstar has decided that while planning what to do with that GTA VI -of which some images and videos have already been leaked-, what it has on the market has to adapt to the new times and if there is a technology (graphic) that has flooded everything since 2020 is the famous ray tracing , or ray tracing, which is capable of transforming the scene of a video game into practically a carbon copy of what we can see in the real world.
That improvement has already arrived and you have it available to update your GTA V and GTA Online for PS5 and Xbox Series X | S, automatically or manually, as you have configured. And to verify that you can enjoy this improvement in the graphics engine, you will have to look in the game information and verify that it is version 1.64. If so, congratulations.
Does GTA V get much better?
Well, the truth is that if you have already clicked play on the video that we have left you above, it is evident that although it is a very subtle change that the eye quickly gets used to, it is capable of printing on each screen of the I play a sieve of realism that allows us to see reflected in transparent surfaces part of the scenery that surrounds us, including the GTA V characters themselves.
You only have to compare how we have been seeing it so far with what appears on the screen after the installation of the patch to realize how much is gained, simply in that aspect, with the hardware of PS5 and Xbox Series X | S. So if you want to be part of this new experience, download the update to apply it right now.
With this latest Rockstar patch it seems clear that we will have GTA V for a while , so given the few official news that move around the future GTA VI , it is better to get used to the idea that the old title released in September 2013 will be a decade old without interference or threats on the horizon. Do we really need another game to be put on sale having that practically infinite online mode?
