Platform:PC
Edition:Standard Edition
Rockstar Games' critically accled open world game, Grand Theft
Auto V, is coming to PC.
When a young street hustler, a retired bank robber and a
terrifying psychopath find themselves entangled with some of the
most frightening and deranged elements of the criminal
underworld, the U.S. government and the entertainment industry,
they must pull off a series of dangerous heists to survive in a
ruthless city in which they can trust nobody, least of all each
other.
Grand Theft Auto V for PC features a range of major visual and
technical upgrades to make Los Santos and Blaine County more
immersive than ever. In addition to vastly increased draw
distances, running at 60FPS with the ability to display visuals
in 4K resolution, players will experience a range of additions
and improvements including:
* New weapons, vehicles and activities
* Additional wildlife
* Denser traffic
* New foliage system
* Enhanced damage and weather effects, and much more
All these features are enhanced by stunning resolution, dramatic
improvements to lighting, shadows, and textures, and a smooth
frame-rate.
Grand Theft Auto V is physical boxed item and hence it is not
activated on steam.
The PC versions of Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto
Online will also feature First Person Mode, giving players the
chance to explore the incredibly detailed world of Los Santos and
Blaine County in an entirely new way.
Grand Theft Auto V for PC also includes the new Rockstar Editor,
which gives players a full suite of editing tools to create and
publish gameplay clips direct to both Social Club and YouTube.
Grand Theft Auto V also comes with Grand Theft Auto Online, the
dynamic and ever-evolving Grand Theft Auto universe. Enhancements
to Grand Theft Auto Online for PC will include an increased
player count, with online play for up to 30 players. All existing
gameplay upgrades and Rockstar-developed content created since
the original release of Grand Theft Auto Online will also be
available for PC, with much more to come.
Not supported by steam.

Having a Problem when Installing or Playing GTAV PC On Windows
User Accounts Containing Certain Characters? How to Fix it?
Question: I am having problems installing or playing GTAV PC, and
my Windows username includes characters that are not in the table
at the bottom of this page. Issues include an error message
saying “The Rockstar update service is unavailable (code 1)”, or
the game hanging while trying to download the update. How can I
fix this?
Answer: We have identified an issue where players with Windows
usernames that include characters not found in the table at the
bottom of this page will likely run into difficulties when
attempting to download, install, or play GTAV. We are currently
working on a fix for this issue.
If you don’t want to wait for a fix, you need to create a new
Administrator User Account for your Windows system that only
includes letters A to Z, a to z or numbers 0-9 from the basic
roman alphabet. For a full list of supported characters, see the
table at the bottom of this page. Please note that simply
renaming your current User Account will not correct this issue.
Once your new account is created (or if you already have an
account that only uses these characters) we recommend you restart
your PC and log in with that account before starting or
continuing with the installation process. To create the account,
follow these instructions from Microsoft’s website:
- Windows 8/8.1:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-8
- Windows 7:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-7
- Windows Vista:
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/create-user-account#create-user-account=windows-vista
We will update this support article with any new information as
soon as we have it, including expected timing of a fix and
whether you will be able to transfer progress on the
newly-created Windows username over to your original Windows user
account.
