Last Updated: October 4, 2024

Question: Do I need to sign up for a Rockstar Games account in order to play Grand Theft Auto V?

Answer: A Rockstar Games account is required on PC for installation, online play, and using certain online features. On a console, a Rockstar Games account is not required for playing Story Mode, but is still required for certain online features.

A Rockstar Games account enables access for online features such as:

  • Crews

  • The GTA Online Creator

  • Snapmatic Photo sharing

  • Song sharing
