The Grand Theft Auto V (GTA 5) next-gen version comes with the complete story, as well as GTA Online for PS5 and Xbox Series X\/S. Featuring three distinct graphics modes<\/a>, as well as a plethora of other improvements, this should be the definitive edition of Rockstar Games’ massive open-world title. Despite the original being several years old, new and veteran players might run into some connection issues, lag or high latency when playing GTA Online’s next-gen version.<\/p>\n

With a large influx of players expected, especially since GTA Online is free for the first three months on PS5<\/a>, and heavily discounted on Xbox Series X\/S, we thought it would be a good idea to outline how you can fix connection issues, including Ports to forward, and general fixes for lag\/latency.<\/p>\n
