Can PS4 and PS5 GTA play together reddit?

No, a PS5 player using the enhanced PS5 version of GTA Online cannot play with a PS4 player, but they can play together if the PS5 player installs and plays the PS4 version of the game on their console, essentially joining the older-gen lobbies. Once a character is migrated to the PS5 version, they are separate, so the PS5 player must play on a new or old character in the PS4 version to join their friend, but progress won't sync between versions.
