GTA 5 Enhanced: Rockstar's Lowest-Rated Steam Game Ever

The Steam release of the enhanced Grand Theft Auto 5 didn't exactly set the world on fire. Many players voiced considerable frustration, citing a multitude of technical problems and difficulties transferring their progress to GTA Online.

This widespread dissatisfaction is clearly reflected in the overwhelmingly negative Steam reviews, dramatically impacting the game's rating. For a brief time, it even held the dubious distinction of being the lowest-rated Rockstar game on Steam.

While the rating has since climbed slightly to 50.59%, it remains the second-lowest rated Rockstar game on the platform, just above L.A. Noire: The VR Case Files (49.63%). This unfortunate ranking underscores the significant challenges developers face when releasing updated versions of established titles, especially one as iconic as Grand Theft Auto 5.

The negative feedback highlights the crucial need for meticulous attention to technical details and seamless player transitions. Rockstar is actively working to improve the experience, but the initial backlash serves as a stark reminder of the high expectations players hold for their beloved franchises.
