Great news GTA fans! "Grand Theft Auto V" will be available for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this fall.

Rockstar Games will release the popular game on November 18, or just in time for the holidays. The original game launched for Xbox 360 and PS3 on Sept. 17, 2013.

"Grand Theft Auto V" on PS4, Xbox One and PC will come with "a range of major visual and technical upgrades" according to Rockstar, along with new vehicles, activities, and weapons.

Rockstar says that if you already own GTA V for Xbox 360 or PS3 you can easily transfer your online character over.

New songs, a completely new foliage system, and denser traffic will be also be included.

PC players will have to wait until January 27, 2015 to play the game however.

If you preorder the game, Rockstar says that you'll get $1,000,000 in-game cash to spend in the online portion of the game, titled "Grand Theft Auto Online."

Check out the trailer for the game below.

 "Grand Theft Auto V" made $800 million in the first 24 hours of availability in 2013. It generated $1 billion in revenue during its first three days of availability, a record for a video game launch.

A few weeks ago the maker of the GTA video games said Lindsay Lohan's lawsuit, accusing the game of basing a character on her without permission, is an effort by the actress to attract attention.

In papers made available on Aug. 26 made public in a New York state court in Manhattan, Take-Two Interactive Software Inc. called Lohan's claim "so legally meritless that it lacks any good-faith basis and can only have been filed for publicity purposes."

Take-Two is looking to dismiss the July 1 lawsuit and have Lohan pay its legal fees.

The "Mean Girls" star accused Take-Two and its Rockstar Games unit of using her as inspiration for the Lacey Jonas character in "Grand Theft Auto V."

The 28-year-old claims Jones had a similar image, clothing, and voice. She is also chased by paparazzi in the game.

Aside from being young and blonde, Take-Two counted that Jones didn't look anything like Lohan.
