GTA Online fans find a "loophole" to enable crossplay across PC and PS4, and apparently all you need is a jailbroken console, a dev copy of GTA 5, and access to a private server

GTA Online The Criminal Enterprises.

GTA Online may be the lifeblood that's kept Grand Theft Auto fans going throughout the over decade-long wait for GTA 6, but more than 11 years on from its launch, developer Rockstar still hasn't added crossplay to allow players across different platforms to dive into the action together. However, some fans have apparently found a workaround, but it's not straightforward.

Specifically, according to Twitter account GTASixInfo, a "loophole" has been found to enable crossplay across PS4 and PC, but it involves using a custom private server, a jailbroken PS4, and a dev copy of GTA 5 – none of which are things the average player likely has access to. Specifically, in this case, the private server is called Los Santos Online (which has an access fee to boot). Gameplay footage from Los Santos Online's Discord server owner Jorby has showcased the crossplay in action, showing two players flying around together in one helicopter after the loophole in question (which seemingly hasn't been publicly explained) allowed the PS4 user to "join the same lobby as PC players."
