It appears that Grand Theft Auto V is set to make a comeback on PlayStation Plus soon.
Although Rockstar Games and Sony have yet to officially confirm the news, reliable leaker billbil-kun from Dealabs has once again revealed the upcoming PlayStation Plus lineup. According to the report, GTA 5 will be available starting November 18 for all PS Plus Extra and Premium subscribers. (Unfortunately, it won't be accessible to those on the Essential tier.)
This isn't the first time Rockstar's blockbuster title has been offered through PS Plus, but it will be the first time in a year that players can access GTA 5 at no additional cost as part of the service.
Considering GTA 5 has sold a staggering 220 million copies, it's difficult to believe many gamers haven't experienced it yet. However, if you've somehow missed out until now, this could be the perfect opportunity to see what makes it so iconic. Unsurprisingly, our review found GTA 5 to be "preposterously enjoyable, breathtaking in scope, and bitingly funny," earning a perfect 10/10 score.
Remember, you have until December 1 to claim November's free monthly games: Stray, EA Sports WRC 24, and Totally Accurate Battle Simulator.
In case you missed it, Grand Theft Auto VI has been delayed until November 19, 2026. Rockstar announced this update on November 6 as part of parent company Take-Two's second-quarter earnings report. In a statement shared with IGN, Take-Two explained the delay is intended to "give the team some additional time to finish the game with the high level of polish players expect and deserve. Rockstar has our full support, of course, and we are confident they will deliver an unrivalled blockbuster entertainment experience."
GTA 6 was initially slated for a fall 2025 release, a date CEO Strauss Zelnick expressed confidence in despite earlier speculation about a delay. The game was then pushed back to May 2026, with Rockstar stating the need for extra development time "to deliver at the level of quality you expect and deserve." Now, with this latest delay, some analysts believe the extra time could ultimately benefit the final product.
