Southern Hemisphere won't benefit from later time zone
Grand Theft Auto Online will roll out on October 2 in Australia, Rockstar has confirmed.
While Australia sometimes enjoys early access to games due to the international date line, Rockstar has confirmed with CVG that the October 1 roll out for GTA Online applies to America's time zone. This means Australians won't get the game until October 2.
Specific launch times for that date will be detailed soon.
GTA Online will follow the release of GTA 5 earlier this month. The title made more than $1 billion within three days of release, and has attracted near animous critical praise.
Rockstar released new details on GTA Online last week, including specific information on micro-transactions and the in-game economy.
The company also warned that teething problems are likely when the online component is rolled out.
"There will be the typical growing pains for an online game, including but not limited to crashes, glitches, crazy bugs, gameplay modes and mechanics that need re-balancing and other surprises," a Rockstar representative wrote.
