Grand Theft Auto Online micro-transaction details and prices revealed

4.2
The rumours are true. Grand Theft Auto Online has micro-transactions, and they’ll cost between £1.99 and £13.49. This will buy you individual packs of in-game money.

Eurogamer has spoken to people with early access to Grand Theft Auto Online, and has the details. There will be 4 GTA Online currency cards, with the following UK prices:

- $100,000 Red Shark Cash Card – £1.99
- $200,000 Tiger Shark Cash Card – £3.49
- $500,000 Bull Shark Cash Card – £6.99
- $1,250,000 Great White Shark Cash Card – £13.49

With less than a week before the online modes go live, it seems unlikely that these details will change too severely.

The price of items will vary between the single-player game and Online. So a property that may cost several million in your own game will far cheaper in the Online mode. The most expensive property will set you back $400,000. Conversely, weapon and car mods will be more expensive online so that they’re out of reach when you first start playing.

So, buy spending your real world cash on in-game currency, a low-level player can get faster access to improved vehicles and weaponry.

We can expect full details about GTA Online to be confirmed by Rockstar very soon.

Technology A bit disappointing seeing Rockstar take this route. wasn't the $700m+ profit in first 3 days alone enough? doing this seems a little greedy.


So you would rather want them to have this Money DLC for free so everyone can start out with a nice car and a awesome house ? Lol, it's just an extra DLC that you can buy..
he means why do they have this dlc

They put this stuff as a extra thing. It is your choice to buy it or not. Just because they make more money doesnt mean they are a bad company. Everyone always wants more money. Stop complaining about a good business choice.

Not very fond of this. Seems like the cheap way out and an easy way for Rockstar to make more money. It's not fair to the others who can't cough up money to get virtual currency. GTA V isn't a damn F2P.
