GTA V gets a jaw-dropping visual upgrade with this free mod, launching May 15
Image by Razed in the official mod Discord Grand Theft Auto V is set for a major overhaul, and the good news? It won't cost you a penny. A completely new version of the hit NaturalVision mod, called NaturalVision Enhanced , is releasing on May 15 and guarantees to take GTA V Enhanced's PC graphics to an entirely new level. With next-generation ray tracing and breathtaking lighting enhancements, the game is set to appear more realistic than it ever has before. NaturalVision Enhanced brings next-generation graphics to GTA V for free — videotechuk_ (@videotechuk_) The much-awaited NaturalVision Enhanced mod by Razed takes the ray tracing features added in the recent PC release of GTA V Enhanced to a new level. Rockstar's implementation already brought about ray traced global illumination and ambient occlusion, but this mod takes it to the next level. It brings volumetric clouds, a rebuilt lighting system, and even opens up hidden shadow rendering capabilities that were not switched on in the vanilla game. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Jawa Tengah: AI guru Andrew Ng recommends: Read These 5 Books And Turn Your Life Aroun... Blinkist: Andrew Ng's Reading List Undo Razed found that NaturalVision Enhanced took unused visual capabilities of GTA V Enhanced where all lighting sources can create more shadows. It is this extra feature that NaturalVision Enhanced turns on, bringing better depth and realism to everything from skyscrapers to street-level detail. The light adaptation system has also been revamped, performing well across the full map and weather conditions. Players will be able to access an in-game menu that allows them to switch the enhanced RTGI (ray traced global illumination) and RTAO (ray traced ambient occlusion) on and off in real time. You can even turn up the intensity of night-time RTGI effects for more extreme nighttime visuals. Release date, availability, and support for older versions NaturalVision Enhanced will be fully free to download and play. The release date is slated for May 15, and it will be compatible with the GTA V Enhanced PC version, now also on PC Game Pass. A trailer is in the process of being created to highlight the new visuals in action, and Razed has already posted several jaw-dropping screenshots and sliders on Discord. For those who are still playing GTA V Legacy on PC, there's also some good news: the original NaturalVision Evolved mod will keep on updating, with the latest being issued only last March. NaturalVision Enhanced is not merely a mod but an outright visual transformation that can compare to official remasters. Coming with a free launch on May 15 and seamless compatibility with PC Game Pass, this is an absolute must-play for any GTA V enthusiast who wants to see the game at its graphical best.

Xbox Game Pass gets arguably the best game of all time for free, no strings attached
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Quick Summary All Xbox Game Pass members get Grand Theft Auto V for free as part of their subscriptions this month, whether on Ultimate, PC Game Pass or Standard. It will be added to the service on 15 April, with Xbox Series X/S owners getting the 2022 remastered version and PC owners getting GTA V Enhanced when it's available. Microsoft has a superb lineup of games coming to Game Pass this month, with a big day one release, one of the most fun shooters of recent times, and arguably the best game of all time being made free on the platform. The headliner is undoubtably the latter – Grand Theft Auto V. Even though it was originally released more than a decade ago (on Xbox 360 and PS3, in fact), it still stands today as one of the finest games you can play. It's been through a number of remastered iterations since, gaining enhancements for subsequent console generations, and the version we have today is as sumptuous to look at as it is to play. It is this edition that'll be available to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Standard members, plus PC Game Pass subscribers from 15 April. Xbox Series X/S owners will get the improved variant released for Xbox Series X and Series S a couple of years ago. PC gamers with rigs that are capable enough will even get the forthcoming GTA V Enhanced update at no extra cost, which adds new vehicles and modifications, plus some incredible and transformative new ray tracing effects. The game itself needs no other hype – it is, in my opinion, one of, if not the greatest of all time. There's good reason behind its original 97 score on Metacritic. And it's one of very few titles to have received maximum scores across many review outlets. In terms of the other games available on Game Pass in April, Borderlands 3 Ultimate Edition, All You Need is Help, Still Wakes the Deep, and Wargroove 2 are each available to download and play right now – with the latter two arriving on Game Pass Standard for the first time. The all-new action-adventure from the developer of We Happy Few, Compulsion Games, will be available from 8 April, when South of Midnight makes its debut. While Diablo III: Reaper of Souls – Ultimate Evil Edition will also arrive the same day. Then there's Commandos: Origins – another day one release – and Blue Prince, which will be added on 9 and 10 April respectively. Finally, rounding up the first half of the month, will be Hunt Showdown 1896 on 15 April. All games will be included as part of Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, but you should check the official Xbox blog post for other details on console type, plus PC and cloud availability.
