What players say
83% of 204,087 reviews are positive · 86% of 2,298 in the last 30 days
Players most often praise the story, darker tone, detailed city, and physics. Their main complaints are poor performance, crashes, high-frame-rate problems, and game-breaking mission bugs in the PC version; many say community fixes such as FusionFix are needed. Others object to the Rockstar launcher, linked account requirement, and login issues.
