New graphics modes allow players to tailor their gameplay experience. Fidelity Mode is tuned for the highest visual quality and targets 30-FPS.

Furthermore, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One players eager to continue their journey on the newest generation of hardware will be able to transfer both their Grand Theft Auto V: Story Mode progress and their current GTA Online characters and progression with a one-time migration, complete with special rewards including a free Karin S95 fully converted by the experts at Hao’s Special Works, plus an HSW racing suit and a highly sought-after set of Chameleon paints made available to all vehicles.
