GTA 5 and GTA Online are incredibly popular to play today, even over ten years after launching, but do they feature crossplay support? Here’s what you need to know regarding cross-platform features across PlayStation, Xbox and PC.
Whether you’re diving into the multiplayer mayhem-filled world of GTA Online or exploring Los Santos alone in GTA 5’s gigantic single-player portion of the game, you may still own the game on multiple platforms and want to utilize cross-save and cross-platform features.
If you want to connect with friends to experience weekly updates together or are just looking to continue your progress on another format as you wait for GTA 6, it doesn’t matter.
Crossplay is not available in GTA 5 or in its Online mode.
Is GTA 5 & GTA Online cross-platform?
Currently, cross-platform play is not in GTA 5 or GTA Online. Rockstar Games has not implemented crossplay for the title, despite it being quite a common occurrence in 2024.
As the game has been released on various consoles over time, each platform would likely need to undergo various changes to enable every player to have a fair shot at surviving online, regardless of their preferences.
Crossplay has not been announced for the GTA title thus far.
When will crossplay come to GTA 5 & GTA Online?
There is no information as to whether GTA 5 or its online counterpart will ever receive crossplay – whether that’s to play with friends on other platforms or to be able to utilize your online character throughout all of the consoles you own the game on.
Considering that we are so late in the game’s development cycle, and as the game is now nearly a decade old, implementation of crossplay at this stage seems unlikely.
And in addition to GTA 6 coming in 2025, it’s even more unlikely that Rockstar wouldn’t have any time to implement crossplay into GTA 5.
If any new announcements are made regarding the feature, we’ll be sure to update you right here.
