GTA Online was released on the 1st of October back in 2013 on PC and on consoles such as the PS3, PS4, XBOX 360 and the XBOX One. While the game has been extremely popular ever since its release, a lot of people still purchase the game to enjoy its vast and evergreen missions and updates.

Players can start playing GTA Online by buying GTA 5 and selecting the online feature in the main menu. Although this is all that players need to do on the PC, the PlayStation 4 and XBOX One work a little differently.
