Unlocking Passive Income: GTA Online’s New GTA+ Membership Feature
GTA Online Adds Quality of Life Feature Behind Subscription Paywall
In a recent update to GTA Online, Rockstar Games has introduced a highly requested quality of life feature that allows players to claim business earnings from their in-game smartphone, no matter where they are. However, there’s a catch – this feature is only available to GTA+ members, who pay a monthly subscription fee of $7.99/£6.99.
This new feature allows players to collect passive income from their various businesses in Los Santos without the need to physically visit each location. While the subscription also offers other perks such as access to legacy Rockstar games, monthly GTA$500,000 deposits, and discounts on Shark Cards, the decision to lock this essential gameplay feature behind a paywall has left some fans feeling uneasy.
Rockstar had previously stated that they would never lock gameplay features behind a paywall, but this move has raised concerns about how GTA+ will be integrated into future titles, including the highly anticipated GTA 6. While players can still enjoy GTA Online without the subscription, this update has raised questions about the direction the developer is taking with their multiplayer modes.
As players continue to enjoy the criminal underworld of Los Santos, the addition of this new feature has sparked a debate about the balance between free and paid content in online gaming. Only time will tell how Rockstar’s decision will impact the future of the franchise.
