After nearly a year of radio silence that left fans both anxious and frustrated, the highly anticipated FiveM update for Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced is finally inching closer to reality. On Wednesday, the Cfx.re development team released a comprehensive blog post detailing the project's progress, and it's clear that the wait will be well worth it. Rather than delivering a straightforward port to the new version of GTA V, the team has taken a much more ambitious route. According to the update, co

Back in 2011, Grand Theft Auto V was still a closely guarded secret. No trailers, no announcements—just a small team at Rockstar quietly building what would become one of the biggest games of all time. Yet, months before the world even knew GTA V existed, the developers had already locked in one of the track’s most iconic songs: “Sleepwalking” by The Chain Gang Of 1974. The story, shared recently by the band’s lead singer Kamtin Mohager on Instagram, reads like a perfect Hollywood meet-cute—exce

Rockstar Games has quietly rolled out a server-side patch for GTA Online, addressing a string of bugs that surfaced after last week's launch of The Kortz Center Heist update. The fixes, dated July 16th and 17th, arrived without requiring players to download anything — Rockstar pushed the changes through a background update, which the studio typically uses to resolve issues discovered shortly after a major DLC drop. What's Been Fixed The patch tackles several problems that had been frustrating t

In a wide-ranging new interview, Strauss Zelnick, CEO of Take-Two Interactive (the parent company of Rockstar Games), delivered a clear message to fans and investors worried about artificial intelligence: AI is not coming for GTA 6. Instead, it will act as a powerful creative tool to make development faster and more efficient — while the real magic of a Rockstar hit will always come from human genius. The comments were made during an interview with The Game Business host Chris Dring on Tuesday,

In a significant development for gamers in Brazil, Rockstar Games has stopped selling its digital titles directly through the Rockstar Games Store and Launcher starting March 16, 2026. The move complies with the country’s newly effective Digital Statute of the Child and Adolescent (Digital ECA), a sweeping law designed to safeguard minors online. Rockstar Games confirmed the change in an official support article titled “Latest information on the Digital ECA for Brazilian players.” The statement

After more than a year of near-silence, the team behind FiveM has confirmed that the Enhanced-edition version of the popular modding platform is about to launch. Cfx.re, the group that develops FiveM, shared the news in a development update posted to its official forum this week, ending months of speculation from a community that had grown increasingly restless waiting for concrete details. FiveM for GTA V Enhanced will enter early access on Tuesday, July 21st, 2026. The "early access" label is

Rockstar Games has kicked off the St. Patrick’s Day celebrations in GTA Online right on time. As of March 12, 2026, players logging into the game are being treated to free login rewards, while two brand-new collectable types—Golden Clovers and Lucky Clovers—have gone live across Los Santos and Blaine County. These festive pick-ups will stay available until April 1, 2026, giving everyone plenty of time to hunt them down and rack up serious cash, RP, and exclusive outfits. Celebrate St. Patrick's

Rockstar Games’ premium GTA Online subscription service, GTA+, is expanding its horizons in an unprecedented move, bringing a major 2K Sports title to its growing library. In a surprising twist that expands the boundaries of Rockstar Games' subscription offerings, the popular GTA+ service has officially added its first-ever non-Rockstar title to its library: NBA 2K26. Historically, the GTA+ catalog has served as a dedicated vault for classic Rockstar games, offering members access to beloved tit

Arion Kurtaj, the hacker responsible for the massive 2022 GTA 6 gameplay leak, has been transferred from a secure psychiatric hospital to a standard prison ahead of a fresh criminal trial. Kurtaj was convicted on multiple counts of hacking and fraud after infiltrating Rockstar's internal systems and leaking 90 clips of early GTA VI footage years before the game's release, alongside GTA V's source code. Because of his autism diagnosis and doctors' concerns that he posed a continued risk, he was h

Rockstar Games, the studio behind the massively anticipated Grand Theft Auto 6, has found itself in the spotlight once again — this time not for a trailer or release date, but for a government ruling on worker pay. On March 19, 2026, His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs (HMRC) published its latest list of employers who failed to pay the National Minimum Wage. Among the 389 companies named and shamed was Rockstar Games UK Limited, the legal entity that runs all of Rockstar’s UK operations, including

Rockstar Games just quietly slipped a new background update into GTA Online, and while it’s small on paper, it’s doing some important housekeeping while also winking at what’s coming next month. The patch went live on March 24, 2026, right on the heels of last week’s downloadable PC update that only mentioned vague “stability and security” fixes. Unlike big title updates that force you to download gigabytes, this one is a true server-side background patch. You don’t have to do anything — the nex

Rockstar Games has kept GTA 6 under wraps tighter than a high-stakes heist, but every so often a genuine crumb slips through from inside the studio. Today’s leak isn’t some blurry screenshot or anonymous forum post — it comes straight from a former Graphics Programmer who spent three years on the game. And what they casually listed on their LinkedIn profile has fans buzzing about one of the most overlooked (yet wildly immersive) features in any open-world title: breakable glass. The detail was f

Rockstar Games is celebrating 4/20 in style with a full week of weed-themed chaos, high payouts, and fresh content dropping in GTA Online starting tomorrow, April 16th, and running through April 22nd, 2026. If you’ve been waiting to fire up your businesses, test your survival skills while baked, or score some exclusive 420 gear, this is the week to log in. Brand-New 420 Modes and Maps The highlight of the week is the debut of Stoner Survival, a brand-new survival mode where players fight off wav

Rockstar Games appears to be listening. Just days after sweeping payout cuts across GTA Online's heist roster sparked a wave of community anger, the studio has made an unannounced adjustment to The Doomsday Heist that partially walks back the reductions — a sign that player pushback is already having an effect. The Backlash That Started It All The trouble began with the launch of The Kortz Center Heist update, which arrived alongside a broad economy overhaul that quietly slashed cash rewards acr

Rockstar Games continues to refine the frontier experience on mobile, bringing highly-requested features and technical improvements to its blockbuster classic. Red Dead Redemption’s journey on mobile devices has been nothing short of a resounding success, and Rockstar Games is keeping the momentum going. Just a month after celebrating a massive milestone of 10 million downloads, the studio has rolled out a brand-new update (v1.58.63226194) for both iOS and Android platforms. Whether you access t

A fresh GTA Online Weekly Update has kicked off in the wake of The Kortz Center Heist content drop, rotating in new vehicles, heist targets, and bonuses for the week running July 23 through 29. New Vehicles Two new rides anchor this week's update. Law enforcement roleplayers and pursuit-vehicle collectors can now pick up the Police Pegassi Ingus Pursuit/Interceptor for $4,376,250 at Warstock Cache & Carry. Meanwhile, the Grotti Veleno GT has opened up to the general player base, priced at $

Rockstar Games fans who prefer physical copies just got some exciting (and unconfirmed) news. A Spanish retailer has accidentally leaked a full store listing for a native Red Dead Redemption PS5 physical edition, complete with a release date and price. The listing appeared on Wakkap’s website and was first spotted by the Portuguese gaming site Portal Viciados on April 15, 2026. According to the leaked listing, the PS5 physical version of the 2010 classic is scheduled to launch on Thursday, May 7

In a landmark shift for the Grand Theft Auto and Red Dead Redemption modding communities, Rockstar Games—through its subsidiary Cfx.re—has officially launched the Cfx Marketplace. This new platform serves as a curated digital storefront where creators can sell their custom assets and scripts directly to server owners and fans. This move signals a major evolution in Rockstar’s relationship with the modding community, transitioning from a stance of cautious tolerance to active integration and mone

A major data breach tied to Rockstar Games has spilled the beans on just how much cash GTA Online has raked in since launching in 2013 — and the numbers are staggering. According to freshly leaked financial documents, the multiplayer behemoth has generated over $5 billion in revenue, almost entirely from in-game purchases like Shark Cards and the GTA+ subscription service. The leak, which surfaced on April 14, 2026, stems from a hack by the group ShinyHunters. The hackers reportedly demanded a m

In a surprising twist for one of Rockstar Games' most beloved yet neglected live-service titles, a fresh data leak has pulled back the curtain on Red Dead Online's hidden financial muscle. Even though the multiplayer mode of Red Dead Redemption 2 hasn't seen a major content update in years, the game continues to generate tens of millions in revenue and draw hundreds of thousands of players every week. The revelations come courtesy of a hack by the teenage group ShinyHunters, who dumped gigabytes

Grand Theft Auto 6 may have already banked a quarter of a billion dollars before a single copy has shipped, according to new analysis from games industry research firm Newzoo.
