GTA Online: Further Adventures in Finance and Felony Set for June Release
To further lend proof to the notion that Rockstar Games isn't interested in adding single-player content to Grand Theft Auto 5, the company has announced yet another update to its multiplayer component, GTA Online. Called Futher Adventures in Finance and Felony, it promises to be "one of GTA Online's biggest and deepest updates yet".
And Rockstar appears to be putting its money where its mouth is, allowing players to be the CEO of their own criminal enterprise, hinting at what could possibly be an in-depth trading element to it as well.
"Acquire a high-rise office and special warehouse properties to begin buying and selling a range of contraband across the city, all the while fighting the LSPD and the rest of the southern San Andreas criminal underworld for access to the rarest items and the biggest profits," the post on Rockstar's website reads. It will be available from June 7.
GTA developer Rockstar has been in the news albeit for the wrong reasons. Most recently erstwhile studio head Leslie Benzies, suing the studio for $150 million over unpaid royalties.
The lawsuit claims that GTA series creators, Dan and Sam Houser tried to force Benzies out of the company and unjustly terminating $150 million in royalty payments "based upon arbitrary actions by the company's royalty Allocation Committee, a committee that may or may not have actually ever met." Benzies also accused Sam Houser specifically of "mounting resentment" that Benzies received the same compensation from Take-Two as the Houser brothers.
