GTA 5 for XBOX Series S is not showing in download list

Hi, I hope you're doing great out there. I am an Independent advisor and I am here to help you in regard to your concern.

I would like to clarify, are you looking for the Grand Theft Auto V: Story Mode (Xbox Series X|S)? If yes, once you install GTA Online, it will be available for you inside the game.

Yes , I am looking for the Grand Theft Auto V: Story Mode (Xbox Series X|S). Thanks a lot Francia.

It's important to know which game your friend bought.

I say this because there are currently three versions of the Series X/S game. Gta 5 Online, Gta 5 Series X/S and Grand Theft Auto V (Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S).

If he has purchased Grand Theft Auto V (Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S), which gives access to the game for Xbox One and Xbox Series S/X, he can play online with you as long as he downloads the Xbox One version, so you and he will have the same save and can play online.

If he is a Game Pass Ultimate subscriber he can download the game in the Xbox One version and play with you.

Hi,

The 360 version of GTA V is not backwards compatible with Xbox One or Series X/S. This is why it does not appear on your download list on the new console. You need the Xbox One version.

Did the card listing say "(Xbox Series X|S)" in it's name?

It should also say "to spend in the Xbox Series X|S version of GTA Online." in the product description.
