After being removed and replaced with Red Dead Redemption 2 almost a year ago, Grand Theft Auto V will return to the Xbox Game Pass for consoles on April 8, and will also arrive at Microsoft’s cloud gaming service, xCloud.
Despite being almost eight years old, Grand Theft Auto V it is still very popular and one of the best selling games of all time. Since its launch in 2013, the game has been ported to PS4 and Xbox One, and will receive a next generation version for PS5 and Xbox Series X / S later this year.
The launch on xCloud will allow players to play the game, including the GTA Online in motion, without being linked to the console. XCloud is included for users enrolled in the Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, although the service is only available on Android devices at this time.
Microsoft also confirmed in a blog post today that more than 50 games available in the xCloud library support touch controls, allowing you to play on Android devices without a controller. The feature was launched last September with support for Minecraft Dungeons, but now, some of the biggest titles on xCloud, including Gears 4 and Sea of Thieves, support the appeal.
