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.

DavidDo0M It is odd that you would only post these prices in British pounds. A currency only used in the UK. Why not do what every other site does and also list the prices in Euros, Australian dollars and US dollars?


Didn't you know TTG is a British site ?


you know the TTG just copies and paste every article they post ,right?.
TTG copied it from vg247, vg247 copied it from Eurogamer.

Disappointing news BUT they've got to make money somehow by hosting this free online service.

I'm definitely not paying for cash, the goal is earning it, so buying cash is ruining the game in my opinion.

There better be a dang good way to make money Online.
I am not spending crap on GTA money that will be gone in a day.

Plus they better remove the -$5000 when you die in Online.
How about we lose NO money when we die?

Look kids, if you don't like buying in game money then you don't have too.

Aggie Wow I really thought it was just a rumor. I didn't think they would go through with it.


I know, well I guess they're just like MS, obsessed with money
