Rockstar announced today that it's going to give every player who has played or logs into Grand Theft Auto V Online this month $500,000 (about £313K, AU$527K) in virtual currency.

The game developer called it a "stimulus package" for players who this month dealt with a troubled launch that made it difficult to log into the new GTA's much-hyped online mode.

The stimulus package money will be deposited in users' in-game bank accounts, accessible through ATMs or their characters' smartphones, in two installments of GTA$250,000. The first will arrive "as early as next week," according to Rockstar.

First the developer will confirm that issues causing players to lose progress have been fully fixed, though. After that, the second deposit will arrive at the end of October.

To receive the cash, players need only log into Grand Theft Auto V Online any time during October and download an upcoming title update.

That GTA$500,000 should be enough for most GTA V Online players to start living like ballers, creating a class of well-equipped high rollers with a competitive edge over new players who come in after the stimulus package goes out.

In other words, GTA V Online is about to get even more realistic.
