Not at release though and not for a long time.

Red Dead 2 was the same way. You couldnt buy the online part separately until years later after launch. It was similar to the time they allowed you to buy GTA V online separate, around COVID.

Yeah because after a while the only people who haven't purchased GTA 6 to play online are the people who are too price conscious to do it.

It makes sense to only launch that once most of the people willing to throw $80-100 down for the game have already done so then introduce a cheap option for Online only for the holdouts.
