Take-Two Interactive launched GTA+, an optional paid subscription service for GTA Online, in March 2022 and Take-Two has apparently been very pleased with its performance thus far. On the Q4 2022 earnings call (fiscal period ending March 31) transcribed by Seeking Alpha, CEO Strauss Zelnick said the company is “thrilled” with the number of players that have signed up for GTA+.
“We’re thrilled with the way it’s been implemented so far. We’re thrilled with the conversion rate,” Zelnick said. “And it’s clear that consumers really like the opportunity to interact with GTA Online and appreciate… what we offer through a subscription.”
As for any future subscription service plans, Zelnick sidestepped the comments, praising GTA+ instead.
GTA+ costs $6 per month and provides players with additional bonuses and cash infusions. It is only available on PS5 and Xbox Series X|S platforms. Subscribers get GTA$500K, discounts, additional rewards from certain events, and free cosmetic items. While the GTA$500,000 per month bonus is constant, other rewards and discounts change from month to month.
You can check out our article discussing whether GTA+ is worth it for the month of April. Writer Joey Carr commented, “While April’s rewards are worth a lot more than the $6 fee players pay for them, the service won’t be worth it for everyone. GTA Online has been around for almost a decade and Veterans of the game will apparently benefit more from the rewards than new players.”
The GTA$500K can help new players get ready, but taking advantage of the other rewards requires a significant amount of play. However, this is just an evaluation of the GTA+ deals for April. This is a new service and it is likely that Rockstar will change it in the future.
