Grand Theft Auto Online hasn’t launched just yet, but ahead of its debut, Rockstar has mistakenly let slip the packs that you’ll be able to buy to gain more items in the multiplayer mode.

According to “people with early access to the mode”, there will be four currency cards available in-game, which have real-world monetary value:

  • $100,000 Red Shark Cash Card – £1.99 (R31.60*)
  • $200,000 Tiger Shark Cash Card – £3.49 (R55.40*)
  • $500,000 Bull Shark Cash Card – £6.99 (R110.90*)
  • $1,250,000 Great White Shark Cash Card – £13.49 (R214*)

It’s noted that while the multiplayer exists in the same Los Santos world as the single-player, prices will differ from the online and offline modes; for example: a car costing $1 million in GTA 5 will be $150,000 in GTA Online.

Players will also be able to own a single property at a time, but will get a rebate on their previous home before buying a new one.

Full details of the mode will be revealed sometime before its public launch on 1 October.
