Written by Mounis Hawass Sunday, November 5, 2023 11:00 PM Rockstar Games, the developer of famous video games such as… Grand Theft Auto And Red Dead Redemption, it will no longer support Windows 7 and Windows 8, and this decision comes in light of the end of Microsoft’s support for these operating systems, and this means that they will no longer receive security updates or technical support from Microsoft.
Ending support may leave the system and games vulnerable to security threats. As a result, Rockstar Games has decided to end support for these operating systems to ensure that their games run on secure and modern systems. Rockstar Games will officially end support for these operating systems on January 30, 2024.
What happens to Windows 7 and Windows 8 users?
Gamers using Windows 7 and Windows 8 will no longer be able to use the Rockstar Games Launcher to purchase or play Rockstar Games games after January 30, 2024. This means they will not be able to access new content or updates for their games, and they may also experience compatibility issues with updates or… future patches, and they may be more vulnerable to security threats if they continue to use these operating systems after Microsoft support ends.
What can Windows 7 or Windows 8 users do?
Gamers using Windows 7 or Windows 8 should consider upgrading to a newer operating system, such as Windows 10. Windows 10 is currently Microsoft’s newest and most secure operating system, and is compatible with the Rockstar Games Launcher.
Upgrading to Windows 10 will ensure that players can continue to play their favorite Rockstar Games games and receive updates and new content after January 30, 2024, and upgrading to Windows 10 will provide better security and performance than using an older operating system.
