A number of Grand Theft Auto fans have expressed concern about what Rockstar Games has planned for a potential online mode in GTA 6 after a quality-of-life feature was locked behind a paywall in the latest GTA Online update.
Rockstar's latest update for GTA Online went live at the end of June with a new story arc where players take on the role of a bounty hunter along with a load of fresh in-game content these updates usually have - an interesting GTA 6 Easter egg was recently spotted within this .
One of those features was called 'The Vinewood Club App' which is available on the in-game phone that lets players "get quick access to your business earnings, purchase ammo with no extra fees, request a Car Club vehicle and purchase or claim Vinewood Car Club vehicles", according to Rockstar.
However, to access its benefits, players must have a GTA+ subscription, which is Rockstar's premium subscription service for some of its content and it costs £6.99 per month - this subscription is only available on consoles, meaning PC players have no way of accessing this particular new feature at all.

This was highlighted in a Reddit post by peazoh in the GTA Online Subreddit.
And a number of those who commented on the post are worried what this could mean for the potential online mode in GTA 6 .

At the time of writing, while it seems highly likely Rockstar will include an online mode in GTA 6 , this has not yet been confirmed by developers.
In fact, any news on GTA 6 has gone quite quiet at the moment - the latest update on it came from Take-Two , the American holding company that owns Rockstar Games, from an earnings call in May in which it revealed GTA 6 will be released in Autumn 2025 .
The only other official announcements came when the game itself was confirmed late in 2023 along with a record-breaking trailer dropping in December of that year too .
There continues to be a lot of speculation and rumours surrounding the game.
