The game will also support cross-progression via a 'one-time migration,' bringing both your single-player progress and your GTA Online progress to either the PS5 or Xbox Series X|S. Typically $40, the Xbox Series X|S version is currently $20 prior to launch, while the PS5 version is $10 prior to launch, accounting for the free GTA Online inclusion on the platform.

Because of this, pricing varies between the systems. While GTA V on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S may not be a free upgrade, Rockstar will release the new GTA Online standalone edition for free on PS5 for the first three months after launch starting in March 2022.

With GTA V continuing to sell exceptionally well-it sold 5 million copies in the April-June quarter, propelling the game to 150 million sold overall-it stands to reason that Rockstar and parent company Take-Two will continue to ride the wave for as long as it makes commercial sense to do so.
