Looking to jump back into Grand Theft Auto V amidst all the awesome games releasing left and right? Or maybe you just missed out on the game in general and are ready to give it a try?

Looking to jump back into Grand Theft Auto V amidst all the awesome games releasing left and right? Or maybe you just missed out on the game in general and are ready to give it a try?

Either way, here’s a great reason to take the plunge. The Grand Theft Auto V: Premium Online Edition is here, and you can pick up a physical edition in-store for either PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, or wait until next week for digital copies to go live, including a PC version. 

The Premium Online Edition will include the complete GTA narrative, of course, because you’ve got to be able to follow the guys’ crazy antics. Beyond that, it’ll include Grand Theft Auto online in all its chaotic glory. The zany and sometimes wholly bizarre online component of GTAV is an ever-changing landscape with new content dumps and other interesting developments that’s updated quite regularly. With that in mind, this special package will come with The Doomsday Heist, Gunrunning, Smuggler’s Run, Bikers add-on, and more. 

To help you get started in the weird world of Grand Theft Auto Online, this package will come with the Criminal Enterprise Starter Pack. It includes a whopping $1 million bonus cash, which translates to $10 million in-game. You should have an easier time of getting on your feet with that much cash at your disposal, but keep in mind that even that amount is a paltry sum in the dog-eat-dog world of GTA Online. It’s like that. 

GTA Online is still getting plenty of traction, and it’s lead to some buzz from those wondering if perhaps Red Dead Redemption 2 will feature some sort of online component. If it does end up coming with one, there’s no way it’ll match the out-of-control nature from GTA, but it’ll be an interesting experiment nevertheless.
