'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds All-New Armored Truck Robberies Yield Double GTA$, Running Back/Tiny Racers Bonuses And More

by Rainier on July 13, 2023 @ 8:09 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.

Armored Trucks Spotted Moving Cash Across Southern San Andreas

Armored Truck robberies are back with a bang. This week in GTA Online, blow the doors off these armored security vehicles in Freemode and make off with bonus GTA$ in the process. Plus, muscle your way to the end zone in Running Back for 2X GTA$ and RP, and take advantage of discounts on stealth tech for your Mammoth Avenger.

Take Down Armored Trucks for 2X GTA$

Help balance the economic scales by pilfering briefcases full of dough from corporate security transports, rerouting high-profile client’s assets across the state. These armored vehicles are purported to be impenetrable, but any trained technician knows that if you hit a piñata in the right spot with enough force, the goodies come tumbling out. Stop the trucks, steal the cash, and make yourself scarce for Double GTA$ this week.

3X GTA$ and RP on Tiny Racers

Zoom out to a birds-eye view and see if you can avoid an explosive fate by competing in Tiny Racers, returning to GTA Online this week. Don’t fall too far behind or you’ll be blown to bits. Survive to earn Triple Rewards, all week long.

2X GTA$ and RP on Running Back

Teamwork is key in this rugged Adversary Mode where a single runner behind the wheel of the pint-sized Panto compact has to make a mad dash to the end zone before time is up with help from their teammates on offense. Meanwhile, defenders need to grind the Panto to a halt and prevent them from scoring. Hit the ground running and earn Double Rewards for your efforts.

This week also features the return of Issi Classic Races and all Special Vehicle Races to GTA Online.

Only on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S

  • Premium Test Ride: Grotti Turismo Classic: The Grotti Turismo Classic (Sports Classics) pushed the definition of the sportscar into new avenues, which makes it arguably the perfect vehicle for Hao to soup up with a frightening number of modifications, angering minimalists and satiating the appetites of maximalists everywhere.
  • This Week’s HSW Time Trial: Test Hao’s latest creation on the open road and maybe pack some earplugs as you take in the sounds of wind and cargo ships on the stretch between Ron Alternates and Elysian Island in this week’s HSW Time Trial.
