If I Buy GTA definitive edition for Xbox one and Xbox x can I play on my Xbox s without it...

I have Xbox one x, want to buy GTA v for Xbox one x|s for $39.99

When hovering over the buy button in Microsoft store on GTA v series x|s a small text bar appears saying. This is not playable on this device.

I have Xbox one x.

But the store says GTA v series x|s is not playable on my Xbox one x.

The Xbox One X is absolutely worth it if you want to play games in 4k. The One S only allows you to watch content in 4k, but you can't play any Xbox enhanced games. If you don't own either an S or an X, or own an original Xbox One, I would definitely
recommend the X. If you already own an S, then it's a little harder to push the upgrade. I had the Day One Edition Xbox and upgraded to the S. But once I saw games running in 4k, I upgraded again to the X. Totally worth it in my opinion.

series s and x games can only run from the internal storage or official (rip off) expansion card. only xbox one and 360 bc games can run off the external hdd.

So I cannot download GTA Xbox series s/x edition on my external hardware?

Hello, Callum M. I'm Arturo, and I'll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Could I know what edition of GTA V are you playing, the Xbox One edition or the Xbox Series X|S:

Xbox One:
https://www.xbox.com/games/store/grand-theft-auto-v-xbox-one/BPJ686W6S0NH/0001

Xbox Series X|S:
https://www.xbox.com/games/store/p/9NXMBTB02ZSF/0010

This question is asked because the GTA+ subscription is compatible only with the next gen version, and you can play either the Xbox One or the Xbox Series X|S edition if you have an Xbox Series X or S.

However, if you're playing the next gen edition of GTA V. Could I know if your subscription is active, or it has been canceled?

Hi, my name is Fernando and I am an independent consultant for Microsoft products.

Cross-play is not supported between GTA 5 Enhanced Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. So, Xbox Series X|S players using the enhanced version of the game won’t be able to play with those on Xbox One.

By the way , you can play GTA Online with people using systems in the same console family. If you have an Xbox Series X, but your friends own Xbox Ones, you can still jump into lobbies together.
