GTA Online now lets you buy modded cars from Car Meets

GTA Online's Car Meets offer petrolheads a chance to show off their new set of wheels in style. Now, thanks to the new upgrade for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5, players can do more than just window shop - they can buy themselves a version of the car they see in front of them, complete with mods.

This addition, which has been spotted by 'sjsjshdhxh' on Reddit, comes as part of the Expanded and Enhanced update for current-gen users. While the update includes new and improved tuning options for the fastest GTA Online cars and the fastest GTA online bikes, this is the first time players will be able to buy cars directly from the Los Santos Car Meet.

While that might not seem like a big deal, it allows new players, particularly those trying GTA Online out for the first time in years to get a massive leg up in the game.

Rockstar is fixing GTA Online character transfers

Grand Theft Auto V: Expanded and Enhanced is upon us, and while the update doesn't mean much for PC players, the character transfer process is causing some major headaches for folks who've previously hopped between consoles and PC. Rockstar is working on a fix, but there's not yet an estimate for when that update will arrive.

If you played GTA Online on PlayStation 4 or Xbox One, and previously transferred your character to PC, you are currently unable to transfer that character to the Expanded and Enhanced editions on the new consoles. Based on initial communication from Rockstar's support staff, it seemed that this was an intentional limitation. However, Rockstar now says that's not the case.

As the devs explain in a tweet, they're "currently working to resolve the issue with GTA Online profile migration for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S where those migrating from PS4 or Xbox One are currently blocked due to previously migrating those accounts to PC, and will update everyone once this is working as intended".

GTA 5 and GTA Online will be discounted for a limited time on PS5 and Xbox Series X/S

The PlayStation and Xbox stores have posted pricing for the PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions of GTA 5 and GTA Online.

Both the standard game and the online-only version will be made available at a discount if you make your purchase before June 14.

PS5 players are receiving the largest discount at 75% while Xbox Series X/S users are receiving a 50% discount.

As you know, GTA 5 and GTA Online will release for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S on March 15, but today, Rockstar has provided more details on what you can expect in the way of graphic settings.

According to Rockstar, new-gen users will be able to choose from one of three detailed new graphics settings.

One is Fidelity Mode, which is tuned for the highest visual quality and targets 30 FPS. In this mode, PS5 and Xbox Series X support native 4K resolution with ray tracing enabled while the Xbox Series S supports upscaled 4K resolution.

It's Thursday, gang, and you know what that means. GTA Online's reset day is here, so players are dipping in to see what's new. As always, Rockstar Games will post the full patch notes on the Newswire later on in the day, but the update is already here, so why wait?

The Business Battles and Criminal Damage freemode events offer the biggest rewards boost this week. You can get triple the in-game cash and reputation points for doing them until next Thursday. Meanwhile, the Running Back adversary mode and Last Play contract missions are offering double the standard reward. Finally, the rewards from a series of tasks from The Contract update called Payphone Hits have got a wee boost.

If you're looking for a new set of wheels this week, the GTA Prize Ride is the Sugoi, which you can fetch after placing in the top three of pursuit races for five days in a row. The GTA podium vehicle, meanwhile, is the Flash GT. Head over to the Diamond Casino and take a spin on the wheel to get a chance of winning it.
