If you've been experiencing this problem on your device, we recommend that you try to restart the game. If that isn't working for you, try to restart your device, then start the game once more. If these don't work, you have no other option but to wait until Rockstar releases a fix for this issue.

This issue mainly affects players who migrate their GTA V characters from their PS4 devices to their PS5. So, if you've yet to migrate your characters, consider waiting for some more time. The community is assuming that the GTA V black screen issue is related to server side issues. Since the servers a seeing a huge influx of players, they're probably getting overloaded, thereby leading to this issue.

Hopefully Rockstar Games will intervene soon with a working fix for this in the upcoming days. We'll update this piece as soon as we have more concrete information about the black screen fix.
