The quick answer

Rockstar documents uploading a Legacy PC Story Mode save through Pause → Game → Upload Save Game. The uploaded save is available for 90 days; downloading it into Enhanced is a one-time action per account.[1]

Understand the distinction

This Story Mode process is separate from GTA Online profile migration. Rockstar allows replacing the uploaded save before it is downloaded into Enhanced, so choose the intended file before completing the transfer.[1]

Suggested checklist

  1. Verify the linked Rockstar account and identify the Legacy Story Mode save you intend to use.[1]
  2. Review the official upload instructions and the one-time Enhanced download limit.[1]
  3. Keep the editions distinct after transfer; subsequent Story Mode progress does not synchronize between them.[1]

Limits and next steps

Do not treat uploading as continuous cloud synchronization. Read the full current Rockstar instructions before completing a one-time transfer.[1]

Continue with GTA Online Legacy progress after migrating to Enhanced.
