'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds The Bravado Buffalo EVX Muscle Car, San Andreas Mercenaries Bonuses, Free Avenger Liveries And More

by Rainier on June 22, 2023 @ 8:43 a.m. PDT

Set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and the surrounding area, Grand Theft Auto V delivers a world of unprecedented scale and detail bursting with life, from mountaintops to the depths of the ocean.

When a young street hustler, a retired bank robber and a terrifying psychopath find themselves entangled with some of the most frightening and deranged elements of the criminal underworld, the U.S. government and the entertainment industry, they must pull off a series of dangerous heists to survive in a ruthless city in which they can trust nobody, least of all each other.

Switch between the interconnected lives of Michael, Trevor and Franklin as they embark on a series of heists across Los Santos and Blaine County in the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover.

Grand Theft Auto V also comes with Grand Theft Auto Online, the dynamic and ever-evolving online universe for up to 30 players, and includes all existing gameplay upgrades and content released since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online.

Rise through the ranks to become a CEO of your own criminal empire by trading contraband or form a Motorcycle Club and rule the streets. Pull off daring co-operative Heists, enter adrenaline-fueled Stunt Races, compete in unique Adversary Modes or create your own content to play and share with the entire GTA community.

The brand-new HSW Upgrades and Imani Tech-ready Bravado Buffalo EVX electric muscle car is now available for purchase from Legendary Motorsport and the Luxury Autos showroom.

Check out the newest additions to the Community Series below and get Triple Rewards on these player-made Jobs all week long. And remember to tag your creations with #communityseries on Social Club.

  • Bike vs Plane by Darti1989 - On its face, this mode is a lopsided battle between a team on bikes and a fleet of planes, but the latter’s lack of weaponry means that pilots will have to time their runs impeccably to knock the bikers off their perch.
  • Double Decker Sumo by SafetyCircle - Can’t get enough Sumo? This mode dishes out a double dose of the fan-favorite across two layered levels, with a selection of different vehicles to choose from — each with its own size and speed to ensure maximum chaos. 
  • CXB1 DKRX Duckling by chapmman - You’ve never seen the Los Santos Golf Club quite like this: transformed into a multi-terrain rallycross Race with bumpy sections testing your ability to keep an even keel. Recommended for Off-Road vehicles and anything with four-wheel drive.
  • Bleu_Pistol by Crappatoni - A classic, true-blue Deathmatch with plenty of cover to go around. Stay frosty though, or you might end up electrocuted.
  • The Grand National Rally by JettaArts - Rally racing may be a sport, but creating rally tracks is an art in its own right. This track winds from Paleto Forest to Raton Canyon, veering both on and off-road, with twists and turns to keep drivers guessing.
  • Skytower Fight Club by PontSangsue7534 - This Last Team Standing built high above Pillbox Hill is a chaotic close quarters melee. Keep your wits about you and check around corners before dealing out blunt force trauma to your foes.
  • Zombie Survival by The_Amazing_Zeph - Fight off a tide of zombified enemies atop The Diamond Casino & Resort in this high-stakes rooftop Survival mode. If you get swarmed, running through zombies will knock them over, giving you some space and time to breathe.
