"Unable to access Rockstar servers" Error When Playing GTAV PC in Steam's Offline Mode

Last Updated: April 7, 2024

Question: I set Steam to Offline Mode and tried to play GTAV, but an error appears saying "Unable to access Rockstar servers. Activation of GTAV requires an Internet connection. Please check your connection and click retry, or click cancel to quit." Does GTAV support Offline Mode on Steam?

Answer: Yes, GTAV Story Mode supports Steam's Offline Mode, but you may need to restart your Steam client after entering Offline Mode in order for GTAV to recognize it.
