Grand Theft Auto V Coming to Game Pass and PC Game Pass (Includes Enhanced Edition)

If you've been missing the streets of Los Santos, I'm excited to share that Grand Theft Auto V is making its way back to Game Pass on April 15! And for those of us who play on PC, I'm even happier to announce that GTAV Enhanced will be playable with PC Game Pass, and includes the latest features, like Hao's Special Works Vehicles and more.

Note: For those unaware, GTA 5 has been on Xbox Game Pass a couple of times, but this would be the first time that GTA 5 would be coming to PC Game Pass and xCloud.

GTA Online Features
Everyone playing GTAV Enhanced on PC will have access to new vehicles and modifications, Chameleon Paints, and a bunch more all in Hao's Special Works.

When playing GTA Online, you'll need to make sure you and your friends are all playing in the same edition so you can squad up — the good news is that Game Pass Ultimate and Game Pass Standard players have access to all console and PC editions so you can download to play whatever your friends are on. And PC Game Pass players, both editions are available for you to download and play, even if your friends are on Steam or Epic Games.

Oscar Guzman Flies Again
No matter what version you're playing, everyone will have access to Oscar Guzman Flies Again, the latest update where you can take to the skies — taking control of the McKenzie Field Hanger in Grapeseed. Play new arms trafficking missions, fly new aircraft, and more.

Call of Duty: WW2 is now available for play as of June 30, 2025. This iconic title, developed by Sledgehammer Games and praised for its engaging World War II narrative, marks the 17th and final addition to Xbox Game Pass for June.

Originally released in 2017, Call of Duty: WW2 was a commercial success, becoming the best-selling console game of that year, with over 20 million copies sold. The game received favourable reviews, boasting a strong rating of 76 on OpenCritic, and a 70% recommendation rate from critics.

While this addition is exciting, it's worth noting that Call of Duty: WW2 is not launching with Xbox Cloud Gaming support, which has been a consistent trend for recent Call of Duty titles on the service. Currently, only Black Ops 6 supports cloud gaming, leaving fans hopeful for future inclusivity.

Looking ahead, Xbox Game Pass has a triple-release day scheduled for July 1, featuring Little Nightmares 2, Rise of the Tomb Raider, and Mecha Break, the latter being a day-one release. The next major title following this is Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4, set to debut on July 11.
