Returning Players to Get Exclusive Content in GTA V!
Rockstar Games announced today that those who bought GTA V will get bonus in-game material when transitioning to the current gen versions. This includes new weapons, vehicles, activities and more for returning players!
Here’s a list of what returning players can expect:
• 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.
Rockstar will also be including a fleet of classic GTA vehicles and a few surprises for players to discover when GTA V releases next month. It’s rather interesting; this news combined with the ability to move your saved character from the last to current gen systems makes the newer version of the game seem much more desirable*. I’m still hoping that we’ll get the heists though. It’s currently the only highlight of GTA Online that hasn’t been implemented yet. Then again, this could be one of the surprises that Rockstar was hinting at.
GTA V will be released on November 18th on the Xbox One and PS4. The PC version will follow on January 27th, 2015. Be sure to check back here as we continue to cover this title!
*You can transfer your GTA Online progress to the PS4, Xbox One, and PC regardless of what system you started on (a social club membership is required).
