The compilation's games suffered from all kinds of performance problems and visual bugs that left players with a sour aftertaste. It took a while, but Rockstar managed to fix the majority of the issues, and now it's focused on the release of GTA Online in next-gen consoles.

The new version of the multiplayer side of Grand Theft Auto V is specifically designed for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S, and it features new graphic modes and visual upgrades, along with support for resolutions of up to 4K.
