Grand Theft Auto Online targets cheaters with new update

Since launching last year, Grand Theft Auto Online has faced a fair few challenges. But Rockstar has recently released an update for the game that should address some of the issues.

The update takes aim at the various cheats that have been exploited in the game since launch. Players have been able to grant themselves a huge amount of money among other things. This update, titled 1.09, adds ‘improved anti-cheat measures’ and a ‘fix for several GTA$ and RP exploits’.

RP stands for reputation points, which help you online. The update hit over the weekend, so should be all good and ready for you to download on either your PS3 or 360.

Now, Rockstar, PS4 and One versions of Grand Theft Auto Online and V? Please?
