GTA Online $500k Stimulus Package live now

Early GTA Online players are quids in as Rockstar’s in-game cash injection goes live.

The $500,000 cash bundle is being offered by Rockstar as a peace offering for the game’s bumpy launch, which caused players a variety of issues including characters being deleted into the nether.

Anyone who signed into GTA Online throughout October will be rewarded with the handsome offering.

Whilst live now, Rockstar says the process could take up to two days and that all eligible players should receive their cash by the end of Friday.

However, while Rockstar initially promised players two individual payments of $250,000, GTA Online players are reporting the payments is being received as one lump sum.
