PSA: Last Chance To Transfer GTA Online Characters From 360 And PS3
If you're a last-gen Grand Theft Auto Online player aiming to continue the adventures of your Xbox 360 or PS3 character on PS4 or Xbox One, now's the last chance to transfer your character data.
Starting on March 6, it will no longer be possible to move a GTA Online character from last-gen consoles. It's long been the case that Xbox 360 and PS3 owners have missed out on GTA Online's numerous updates; since late 2015, GTA Online content drops have been exclusive to PS4, Xbox One, and PC, leaving last-gen players behind.
For Xbox 360 and PS3 players, it's now or never, but they've had plenty of time to make the change. Thankfully, Rockstar is giving players more than a month's notice before they lock characters to their last-gen consoles forever, rather than just pulling the rug out with no warning.
