GTA V Confirmed On PC , PS4, XBONE https://youtube/watch?v=3DBrG2YjqQA Sony confirmed at their E3 2014 press conference tonight that GTA 5 is coming to the PS4. Rockstar followed up on that announcement with a trailer confirming Xbox One and PC versions as well. If you own a last-gen version of the game, its going to be easy to upgrade to the PS4. Sonys Andrew House confirmed during the press conference that you can import your GTA Online progress to the PS4. It doesnt matter whether youre currently playing on the Xbox 360 or PS3. I guess Sonys hoping to convince a few Xbox 360 owners to defect in the new generation of consoles. Its not a bad business move. Right now only a small fraction of PS3 and Xbox 360 owners have upgraded to new consoles. Theyre waiting for something - an exclusive, a price cut, whatever - to convince them to upgrade. Its only natural for Microsoft and Sony to dream up promotions targeting these undecideds. Tonights announcement doesnt necessarily mean that the Xbox One and PC versions cant import GTA Online data from other platforms, though. This announcement came during Sonys press conference and its not like they were under any obligation to talk about those other platforms. Well see what Rockstar says in the morning. I sure hope that PS3/360 GTA 5 owners get some kind of discount on the other versions, too. GTA 5s a good game but asking players to spend another $60 on it might limit the ports appeal. The GTA 5 PS4 reveal was limited to a trailer showing various scenes from throughout Los Santos. Trevor waking up shirtless in a field. Franklin washing his car. Michael doing yoga by the pool. A title card at the end of the video notes that the footage was recorded on a PS4 No concrete details were announced about the new-gen versions. Presumably it has better resolutions and framerates than its last-gen counterparts. The text accompanying tonights trailer simply says that these new versions will take full advantage of the power of new generation systems to deliver the ultimate open-world experience. It may be too optimistic to expect bonus content on those platforms too. Perhaps Rockstar will at least ship the ports with some of the DLC and patches released to date on PS3 and Xbox 360. GTA 5 will hit the PC, Xbox One and PS4 this fall. Pre-orders should be available real soon.
