Rockstar Games have released a new update to their games launcher. This new version of the RGL comes with several bug fixes but also a brand new, reworked chat overlay. Rockstar have been working on this for months as we previously reported on parts of it being datamined. Now it is ready to be used across the company’s library of games. You can see screenshots of the new chat overlay below:

This chat overlay also supports a number of new options. For example, you can connect Discord for easy friend invites. There’s a dedicated streamer mode. Development of this new chat overlay comes just after Nopixel V’s launch; something Rockstar worked on. There is a lot of great new additions to the chat overlay and you can find all of them in the patch notes below from the Rockstar Support website.

General

  • Fixed an issue that resulted in a crash when accessing Microsoft Store during in-game purchases

This update will be downloaded when you next boot the launcher up. It’s good to see Rockstar improving their launcher after plenty of players are not keen on using it. Rockstar are making it clear the Rockstar Games Launcher is here to stay especially ahead of GTA VI’s release (it will come to PC at some point and perhaps sooner rather than later).

Let us know down in the comments if any of the improvements made to the Rockstar Games Launcher are useful to you. For more GTA 6 news updates or anything else relating to Rockstar Games, stay tuned to RockstarINTEL.
