'Grand Theft Auto Online' (ALL) New Updates Coming Soon

by Rainier on May 9, 2016 @ 2:21 p.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.

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.

The new generation upgrades also extend to Grand Theft Auto Online, an ever-evolving Grand Theft Auto universe. Rise through the criminal ranks by banding together to complete Jobs for cash, purchase properties, vehicles and character upgrades, compete in traditional competitive modes, or create your own content to play and share with the Grand Theft Auto community.

All new content and gameplay created since the launch of Grand Theft Auto Online, including an extensive array of new Jobs, an arsenal of new weapons, scores of new vehicles, new properties and player customizations will also be available for the PS4, Xbox One and PC with much more to come. In addition, the current community of players will have the ability to transfer their Grand Theft Auto Online characters and progression to their choice of PS4, Xbox One or PC.

In our continuing efforts to update and evolve the world of GTA Online, today we are introducing the first information on the new feature-rich updates coming in the weeks and months to come.

In the stealing and dealing successor to Executives and Other Criminals, players can embark on further adventures in finance and felony as their Organization enters the lucrative and dangerous world of contraband trafficking. Players will be working with their team from a selection of big new properties that serve as both their headquarters for Organization and warehouse for merchandise. Players can manage their inventory directly from HQ, arranging to buy and sell anything from jewels to narcotics to medical supplies from a range of nefarious suppliers. Players should expect the unexpected as they head out with their team to make each pickup. Keep stock in mint condition to maintain value and sell at a profit – and watch for raids on warehouses between shipments!

Cunning stunts: Expect a slew of new stunt-ready vehicles and gear - and the inspired Creator scene will be getting a vast new set of props for an evolution of stunting, racing and trials-style creations and other gameplay.

...AND MORE

Look for other additional updates to arrive including more fun new Adversary Modes. There are new locations coming for the recently released In and Out – where a group of Attackers must smash and grab their way to steal coveted packages from Defenders who are outnumbered, but far from outgunned. And stay tuned for info on other fun competitive team-based modes to come.

You may also have noticed some of our recent in-game specials and bonuses, such as the Versus Missions Week and Contact Missions Week – with opportunities to get coveted vehicles, weapons and other items on sale, and reap bonus RP and GTA$. Be on the lookout for regularly occurring event weeks like this, that will highlight a wide variety of different game content, including both recently released and fan-favorite modes, missions and some classic content that you may have not played in a while. There will be Double RP Playlists, chances for bonus GTA$, big discounts on vehicles, properties and lots more happening regularly; take advantage of these special rewards when you play, to help increase your GTA Online reputation and bank balance in the process, and amass your prized car collection and other spoils of success at a savings.

And of course, expect all forthcoming Title Updates to continue improving and enhancing the GTA Online player experience. Thank you especially to the dedicated Creator community (shout out to ManOfFire and StronkTank) for sending us your feedback about a recent change to the Creator tool – a limit to how many props you could place close together was made to fix an issue where that would create a hole in the map. This change, however, prevents players from making some types of complex structures that clever Creators like metoxys have used to make inventive Jobs like “Ampersand”; we’re happy to report that we are working on a fix to allow such prop placement, while still preventing the map hole issue, so Creators please stay tuned for that. As a reminder to all, the best place to direct your feedback, including wish lists for future content and suggestions for fixes and changes, is to send it via email to the GTAOnline@rockstargames.com address, which the game’s development team routinely consults for consideration.
