GTA V on new-gen to reward returning players with exclusive items

4.7
Rockstar has detailed some of the exclusive items that will be made available to new-gen GTA V players who transfer over their save from the Xbox 360 or PS3 versions.

A number of new vehicles, items and missions will be exclusively accessible by returning players who have previously played the past-gen versions and transfer their GTA Online character over to the Xbox One, PS4 or PC version.

These exclusive items will not be made available for owners of the Xbox 360 or PS3 versions. "The upgrade content [is] being designed exclusively as a reward for returning players so that will not be released on the previous versions," Rockstar explained in a statement.

The exclusive new additions for returning players are as follows:

New Events & Rewards

Encounter new events happening all across the world, and complete the challenges they present to unlock exclusive new vehicles like the menacing Imponte Duke O'Death and that veritable GTA classic bird of flight, the Dodo seaplane.

Murder Mystery

As Michael, follow a trail of cryptic clues to unravel a grisly murder mystery. Put the clues together and you'll unlock two Noir Style Filters, which will give your Story Mode gameplay and Snapmatic photos the feel of a gritty old school crime classic.

Weapons: The Rail Gun & Hatchet

Obliterate your adversaries with the high-powered, high-velocity Rail Gun. This piece of experimental military technology also has its own set of Shooting Range Challenges at your local Ammu-Nation shooting range. Or hack and slash foes up close and personal with the brutal Hatchet melee weapon.

Wildlife Photography Challenge

There are new species of animals across Los Santos and Blaine County, and the LS Tourist Board needs someone to document them. As Franklin, catalog unique animal species scattered across the map to unlock the special Kraken Sub.

Stock Car Races

Win a series of new Stock Car Races to earn unique custom Muscle Cars adorned with logos from some of the companies that made this country great.

Monkey Mosaics

A mysterious street artist is tagging walls all across town with his simian-inspired silhouettes. Track down and photograph them all to earn new monkey outfits (available to all players) and a special Go Go Monkey Blista exclusively for returning players.

New Vehicles and More

Grind up the Los Santos freeways (and over anybody in your path) with the Cheval Marshall monster truck and take to the skies in a faster and more maneuverable Blimp, compliments of Xero Gas.

There will also be a bounty of content for all players, new and returning, to discover - including a fleet of classic GTA vehicles and a few more surprises we've got planned that you'll have to discover for yourself come game day.

The Grand Theft Auto V release date for PS4 and Xbox One is November 18, 2014. The PC version of the game, which was originally expected to debut alongside the new-gen console versions this autumn, will be released on January 27, 2015.

The video you have requested should be available shortly.

I am guessing they are just gonna forget about 360 then. I hope they will still do updates for 360 as I can't get an xbox one until Christmas

Yoke I really cant wait for this game to drop for next gen.


Same here, I used to own it on Xbox 360, but I sold the entire console and got an Xbox One. So, I'd like to continue playing it on next gen. :)

TDK_Jr I think it's sad they need to bribe their players with promises of "exclusive rewards" and then release them to other players a month later.


they do it, because they make money off it.
