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.

To kick off 2017 in style, pick up the new Pegassi FCR 1000 Motorcycle and engage in an explosive new brand of vehicular warfare with the Vehicle Vendetta Adversary Mode. There are also opportunities for bonus GTA$, a fully-stocked list of New Year discounts and more. Read on for all the details on today's updates, inbound deals and your last chance to grab a holiday gift.

NOW AVAILABLE: THE PEGASSI FCR 1000

Benny has seemingly gone back in time with the uber-customizable Pegassi FCR 1000 - now available in GTA Online. This fully-featured beaut of a bike treads the fine line between old-school, no-frills engineering and a tight-trousered hipster's delight. An instant classic, this bike will be the envy of your grandpa, even if he did disown you.

NEW ADVERSARY MODE: VEHICLE VENDETTA

Now you can exercise your pent up road rage without concern for LSPD response units in Vehicle Vendetta -the new Adversary Mode that pits you and your teammates against an opposing crew of motorized maniacs, all competing for power-ups that can singlehandedly turn the tide of battle:

• Beast: Automatically transforms you into a Rhino Tank.
• Detonator: Removes obstacles and objects from the arena.
• Bomb: Place up to three bombs around the map to destroy trailing enemies.
• Rockets: Fire rockets at oncoming drivers to incapacitate them.
• Repair: Returns vehicle back to max health.
• Ghost: Become translucent, allowing you to drive through enemy vehicles to steal their power-ups.
• Jammed: Forces the accelerator on for the enemy team's vehicles.
• Flipped: Reverses the enemy team’s steering, acceleration and braking controls.
• Zoned: Slows down time for all players.
• Deadline: Automatically switches you onto the Nagasaki Shotaro complete with devastating light trail.
• Random: Chance to collect any power-up except Detonator.

As an added bonus, earn Double GTA$ & RP now through January 17th in Vehicle Vendetta. Buckle up.
