Not sure how well that trick will work this time if everyone has backwards compatibility.

That's true. Maybe they could make the PS5/Next Xbox versions native 4k and 60FPS compared to 1080p 30FPS for the PS4 and XB1 versions, that'd get a lot of people to double dip even if the PS4 and XB1 versions are BC on PS5 and the Next Xbox. They'd also probably drop support for PS4 and XB1 after 2 years or so while continuing support on PS5 and Next Xbox for a lot longer, which would be another reason to double dip even if the PS4 and XB1 versions are BC.

Even if they do though, if they do it the same where it's an enhanced version with new features then it would still sell well a 2nd time.

The improved graphics would be a feature of the system though not the game. From MS's perspective buying the next xbox is the same as upgrading your PC to get better graphics without having to buy the game again. Extra non-graphics features could still be added via DLC.

If BC is available on both PS5/XB2 then I don't see how they repeat GTA5's sales. I don't think R* cares anyway if they're going more towards the service route (DLC/monthly sub).
