GTA Online’s new monthly subscription service offers loads of benefits to players... for a price.
Rockstar Games has announced GTA+, a new subscription service for Grand Theft Auto Online that costs $5.99 per month. The service will only be available for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S owners, so you’re sadly out of luck if you’re playing GTA Online on older consoles.
So, what do you get with GTA+? The service gives players monthly drops of in-game content, including currency, cosmetics, free upgrades and gameplay bonuses. Subscribers will also have access to a higher tier of Shark Cards, which are microtransactions adding in-game currency to player accounts.
For GTA+’s first month of Membership, which runs from March 29 to April 27, subscribers will get:
- GTA$500,000 delivered automatically to your Maze Bank Account.
- The Principe Deveste Eight — along with a complimentary Hao’s Special Works upgrade for it before it is made available to purchase by the general public — plus the HSW Orange Trip and HSW CMYK Glitch Liveries.
- The Auto Shop located in La Mesa, introduces an assortment of gameplay updates from Los Santos Tuners. Current Auto Shop owners can relocate to La Mesa at no additional cost.
- Waived LS Car Meet Membership fees. Current LS Car Meet members with GTA+ will be reimbursed GTA$50,000 during this event period.
- Yacht owners can upgrade to the Aquarius Super Yacht at no additional cost.
- The Gussét Frog Tee and Broker Prolaps Basketball Top and Shorts automatically added to your wardrobe.
- The Conveyor Livery for the Mammoth Avenger, HVY APC, and TM-02 Khanjali.
- A selection of free paints and emblems for the Auto Shop.
- 3X GTA$ and RP on Hao’s Special Works Race Series.
- 2X Car Meet Rep on the Street Race Series.
It’s not as simple as getting all these bonuses deposited to your account, however. Subscribers will still have to go visiting GTA Online’s various vendors to claim these benefits, otherwise they will be lost. Much like Fortnite Crew, GTA+’s exact content lineup will change on a monthly basis, so you’ll have to keep checking in on Rockstar Games to see what you’re getting from the service.
GTA V recently received a next-gen update with touched-up visuals for the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, so this might be Rockstar’s way of keeping players on these consoles. PlayStation Plus subscribers can also get GTA Online for free for the next three months, so go ahead and claim it if you haven't already.
