14 DAY TRIAL // Rockstar Games confirms that a brand new update for Grand Theft Auto 5 is now available for download on the PS4 and PS3 platforms in order to fix the character transfer process that apparently displayed quite a few errors and is set to go live across the Xbox One and Xbox 360 platforms in the following hours.
GTA 5 came out yesterday for the PS4 and Xbox One platforms, finally bringing forth its huge open world of Los Santos and Blaine County to the new consoles, after appearing last year for the PS3 and Xbox 360 devices.
In order to cater to those who already got the game on the old consoles and are now once again buying GTA 5 to indulge in its gameplay on the PS4 or Xbox One, developer Rockstar Games added a special transfer tool that enabled GTA Online character and data migration from the old to the new devices.
Unfortunately, yesterday quite a few problems were encountered by those who wanted to try out the transfer tool, as apparently there was some sort of incompatibility between the new and old versions of the game, particularly when it came to those who hadn't played GTA Online since 2014 actually started.
A new GTA 5 update is available to fix the problems
Rockstar quickly started investigating the issue and now a new patch is available for download, which includes a solution to these new migration issues.
According to the official website, the update can be accessed by almost all PS4 and PS3 owners from around the world, although there might be cases where a special error is displayed on the PS4 console, with the code CE-32937-4. Those who encounter such a problem should wait a few more hours until trying to download the patch once more.
"We are currently addressing this issue with a patch for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 3 users. This patch is available for download, but may not be available in your region for the next few hours. If you attempt to download the patch and see a CE-32937-4 error, please attempt to download the patch again later today," Rockstar explains.
Xbox One and Xbox 360 patches should appear soon enough
Rockstar also confirms that the same issue has been encountered on the Xbox One and Xbox 360 platforms, but right now, the update isn't available on those two platforms. The studio expects to solve the issue and ensure that the patch can be downloaded on Microsoft's consoles by tomorrow, although no exact time frame is known right now.
