How Much Money Will You Need in the Bank for the GTA Online December Update?
Grand Theft Auto is a truly massive game, and with constant updates from Rockstar for GTA Online, there’s no shortage of new content and interesting things to do. As we prepare for the upcoming GTA Online December update, it’s time to consider how much in-game money we will need. In this video, we will take a stab at estimating the required amount, based on the previous updates.
The December Update
At this point, not much is known about the December update, other than it is coming. We don’t really know what it will be or how much we will need, but we can make a solid guesstimate based on our previous updates.
The Previous Updates
Let’s look at the last two major updates, the Tuners update and the Cayo Perico update, to see if we can glean some insights. Firstly, the most recent Tuners update required a membership purchase of 50,000, which is not a lot. So, we won’t include it in the calculation. The cheapest workshop in the game was the Strawberry Auto Shop at 1.705 million, so that is the minimum requirement. If you wanted to grab all the good stuff, a fully kitted La Mesa workshop would set you back roughly 4.25 million. Next, you’ll need at least one vehicle. The best car in the update for street racing and all-round performance was the Sultan RS Classic at a whopping 1.789 million plus upgrades, and you can easily spend a million dollars on upgrades. Thus, the minimum required would be 3.245 million, but you’d want to have around 0.128 million dollars to be safe.
Going back one more, the Cayo Perico update required the purchase of a vessel, the Casa, with a base cost of 2.2 million. With customizations and extras like the Sonar Station, the guided missiles, all the weapons, and the workshops, you can expect to spend roughly 5.65 million. If you want the moon pool vehicles to make your life easier, the Sparrow costs around 1.815 million, and the Corridor costs roughly 3.66 million. Plus, you can easily spend a million on upgrades. Thus, the required amount is a minimum of 2.2 million, but you could go as high as 12.125 million.
How Much Money Should You Have in the Bank for the December Update?
While past performance does not necessarily indicate future returns, we can estimate that you’re likely pretty safe if you can scrounge together around 5 million, but 10 million would be better. That means it’s time to get grinding and earn some in-game money.
Conclusion
The GTA Online December update is coming, and you need to start preparing for it in advance. With the insights we’ve gleaned from the previous updates, you can make a solid guesstimate of the amount of in-game money you will need. It’s time to get grinding, or you can purchase cheap shark cards if you really want to get ahead of the game.
