GTA 6 Online: Money, Shark Cards & Microtransactions
Rockstar hasn't detailed GTA 6 Online's economy. Based on GTA Online, expect in-game money earned through play, plus an option to buy currency with real money (the 'shark card' model). Specifics are unconfirmed.
How will money work in GTA 6 Online?
In GTA Online, players earned in-game cash through missions and activities, and could optionally buy currency packs (shark cards) with real money. GTA 6's online mode is expected to use a similar system, though Rockstar hasn't confirmed the details.
Will GTA 6 have microtransactions?
An online mode with optional currency purchases is likely, given how successful that model was for GTA Online. The single-player story itself is a one-time purchase with no microtransactions. Exact pricing and structure for GTA 6 are unconfirmed.
