Grand Theft Auto Onlinehas added to the longevity of the already successfulGrand Theft Auto 5. The online version of the game allows players to interact with one another as well as take part in events and challenges.GTA Onlinehas had plenty of updatesto keep players intrigued, but a recent change adds a practical element to the game and enables players to protect their valuable cars.

There are plenty ofexpensive cars inGrand Theft Auto Onlineand naturally, players want to protect their assets which are accumulated through challenges and real money. In the game, other players can take vehicles and destroy them and this adds danger to driving around for those who have spent time obtaining expansive vehicles. Fortunately, a new feature in the menu system will allow players to protect their vehicles easily, as long as it has not already been destroyed.

When players are driving they simply need to open up the operations menu and scroll down to vehicles. Once players have clicked on vehicles they will simply need to click “Return personal vehicle to storage.” Players can then be assured that their vehicles will be stored safely in their garage until they need it again. SomeGrand Theft Auto Onlineplayers will recognize this feature as it was exclusively available on the Mobile Operations Center but many will be grateful that they have added security in a game that frequently encourages chaos. It will be interesting to see how players use this option to save their cars.

Players have been praising the addition although some have noted that it has taken many years to enable a relatively simple feature. Nonetheless, Rockstar Games has improved on theGTA Onlineexperience with this option. It is somewhat odd that a game that has offline gameplay that encourages stealing from the rich by any means and causing chaos now has an online player base that earns money and protects its assets. However,expensive items inGTA Onlineappear to please the fanbase and those who have contributed to the in-game economy will be glad to have some protection.

For many, this will be one of thebest updates thatGTA Onlinehas implemented and it will be interesting to see if the game continues to deliver helpful features. With that said, players do seem to enjoy themed events just as much as useful features so it is likely that the fan base will get a mix of these features moving forward.

Grand Theft Auto Onlineis available now for PC, PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X versions in development.
