    Why Does It Say Blocked In GTA 5 Online?

    Several players have encountered a strange issue that says “Blocked” while inviting their friends to GTA 5. This issue has been occurring since the early release periods of the Online mode. Even after checking every corner of the in-game options, players were unable to figure out the root cause of this problem. So in this guide, we will explain why it says “Blocked” in GTA 5 Online.

    Why it Shows “Blocked” in GTA 5?

    There are plenty of reasons why it shows Blocked next to your friend’s username in GTA. But before we list down some of the reasons below, please make sure that you and your friend has completed the GTA Online Tutorial. Doing so is necessary as you will be restricted from hosting or joining a server unless you have finished the tutorial. If you have completed the tutorial and still facing this problem, then it can be because of one of the following reasons:

    • You or anyone in your Party may have accidentally Blocked the player on Steam, Epic, PSN, Xbox, or Rockstar.
    • The Invited player may have turned off accepting invites from anyone.
    • Either one of you may have an outdated GTA 5 Online Version.
    • A bug may have caused this problem to appear.
