Rockstar has revealed the pricing for GTA 5 and GTA Online on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. We now know for sure that the games won't be offered as free upgrades to existing owners, but they will be at least 50% off on all new-gen platforms for the first three months of launch.

Ahead of pre-loading starting today, the pricing for all the new versions of GTA 5 and GTA Online is now live on the PlayStation Store and Microsoft Store, and confirms that there will be no free upgrades available for those who bought the games on previous console generations.

However, there are significant discounts on all platforms within the first three months of release. You can see the pricing for all the new versions of GTA 5 and GTA Online below:

Grand Theft Auto 5 and GTA Online are both immensely popular while also being nearly 10 years old. And while Rockstar confirmed it is working on the new Grand Theft Auto 6, until then Los Santos will still be open for business.
