Hello friends If you thought GTA 5 Enhanced Edition Shatters Records on Steam A Historic Milestone had peaked years ago, think again! Rockstar’s legendary open-world game is making history once more, thanks to the recent release of the Enhanced Edition for PC. This update has not only revitalized the game but also achieved something no other title has managed appearing twice in Steam’s top ten most played games simultaneously. Let’s dive into this remarkable achievement and see what’s making GTA 5 hotter than ever!
A Game-Changing Upgrade for PC Players
PC gamers were in for a treat as Rockstar rolled out the Enhanced Edition, bringing jaw-dropping graphical improvements, superior performance, and exclusive content that was once only available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. The best part? Unlike console players who had to pay for the upgrade when it first launched in 2022, PC players who already owned GTA 5 Legacy received the update free
GTA 5 Takes Over Steam’s Most Played List
With the update, Rockstar split the game into two separate versions:
- Legacy Edition – The original PC version before the Enhanced update.
- Enhanced Edition – The upgraded version boasts next-level visuals and gameplay performance.
Because of this split, both versions have secured a place in SteamDB’s most-played games list. This means GTA 5 has now become the first game ever to feature twice in the top ten at the same time! Here’s how the numbers stand:
- GTA 5 Enhanced Edition – Over 152,000 concurrent players (#7 on Steam)
- GTA 5 Legacy Edition – Over 113,000 concurrent players (#10 on Steam)
That’s an insane level of player engagement for a game that first launched over a decade ago!
Can GTA 5 Enhanced Break More Records
While the new edition is pulling massive numbers, it still has a long way to go before surpassing the original GTA 5’s all-time peak on Steam.
- GTA 5 Legacy’s record – 364,000 concurrent players (April 19, 2015)
- GTA 5 Enhanced’s peak (so far) – 187,000 concurrent players (March 4, 2024)
With the weekend approaching and more players jumping into the newly optimized world of Los Santos, we might just see another spike in player numbers. Could this be the moment Grand Theft Auto 5 breaks its own record once again? Only time will tell
Rockstar Keeps the Momentum Going
Despite being over ten years old, Grand Theft Auto 5 refuses to slow down. Rockstar continues to dominate the gaming scene with free upgrades, fresh content, and record-breaking milestones. And with GTA 6 on the horizon, the excitement surrounding the franchise is at an all-time high. So, whether you’re a returning player eager to experience the Enhanced Edition or a newcomer stepping into Los Santos for the first time, there’s never been a better time to jump into GTA 5. See you in the streets of San Andreas!
