Video game developer Rockstar announces that the GTA Online multiplayer mode for Grand Theft Auto V will be launched at 12 PM Greenwich Mean Time today, which is equivalent to 1 PM in most of Europe, 4AM on the Pacific Coast of the United States and 7 AM Eastern time.

All those who have bought GTA V so far will get access to the new mode via a small title update delivered through the PSN on the PlayStation 3 or via the Live service on the Xbox 360.

The team states in an official Rockstar Newswire post that, “You will be able to jump right into GTA Online via the 4th (bottom) slot in your GTAV character wheel.”

The team also says that it will offer more information on the launch of GTA Online via Twitter and Facebook.

The new GTA V mode will support up to 16 players who can completely transform the world they live in.
