GTA On-line Followers Assume Final-Gen Help May Finish Quickly

GTA On-line followers are beginning to speculate that we may even see the tip of help for the sport on last-gen consoles. GTA On-line has been operating for practically a full decade and has launched on quite a few platforms since 2013. The sport began on Xbox 360 and PS3, however help for that wound down after a number of years earlier than servers have been ultimately utterly shut down. The Xbox One, PS4, and PC variations turned the place to play earlier than Rockstar Video games launched the sport as soon as once more on Xbox Collection X|S and PS5 in 2022. Rockstar famous this model would have unique content material and up to now, the variations have been comparatively minimal. Nonetheless, that might quickly change.

It was revealed that the PlayStation 5 has shipped over 38 million items with a document 6.3 million items moved in Q1 2023. This implies the PS5 is much, far simpler to get than it was between 2020 and 2022 when followers needed to wait in digital queues, battle scalpers, and be on their toes to get a PS5. Now, the console is staying on cabinets, Sony can meet demand, and individuals are shopping for them in mass. With that stated, builders do not have to fret as a lot about holding on to their last-gen participant base. Rockstar Video games fan and insider Tez2 identified that the developer not too long ago introduced a “service replace” for GTA On-line, which might result in Rockstar dropping help of last-gen very quickly. 

Rockstar teased upcoming “service updates” for #GTAOnline two weeks in the past.

The loopy speedy tempo of PS5 gross sales is proving to be an incentive for Rockstar to drop PS4 & Xbox One help this Summer time. https://t.co/IlBBoiCFMe

Given the sport has a decade’s value of updates, already runs fairly poorly as a result of how over-stuffed it’s, and an increasing number of followers are shifting to current-gen, it could make sense for Rockstar to let the last-gen model go. This does not imply Rockstar goes to close off the servers, however it will probably imply they cease releasing updates for GTA On-line on Xbox One and PS4. Solely time will inform if and when this occurs, however it looks as if Rockstar needs to maintain the ball rolling on the sport till it might probably get GTA 6 out the door, which is probably going a 2024 or 2025 sport. 

What do you consider the concept of Rockstar Video games dropping help for GTA On-line on last-gen? Let me know within the feedback or hit me up on Twitter @Cade_Onder.
