'Grand Theft Auto Online' (ALL) Update Adds Transform Races & Creator Updates, GTA$ 250k Giveaway, Discounts and More

by Rainier on June 5, 2018 @ 9:01 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.

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.


Alongside extensive updates to the Race Creator, including the addition of more Vehicles, Props, and weather patterns, seven brand new Rockstar-created Transform Races will are now available to players, with Double GTA& & RP rewards through June 11th.

Great deals continue with discounts on Transform Races-featured Vehicles, including the Ocelot XA-21 and others.

Players will also receive a GTA$250,000 bonus simply for logging into GTA Online between now and June 11th, and in a celebration of athleticism as we approach the world’s game, their GTA$ Cash Giveaway will be delivered after June 14th.

A new realm of creative possibilities arrive in GTA Online as the Creator receives an extensive update adding additional Vehicles, Props, weather patterns and more to your bag of tricks. On top of an increased Prop limit, you can now create your own custom Target Assault Races, trap-infested deep sea courses and teleport generating Transform Race Warp Checkpoints. For a full list of the new Creator features and updates, check out the notes at the Support site.

7 New Transform Races

If you're in need of a little inspiration and some extra GTA$, jump into any of the seven brand new Rockstar-created Transform Races and earn Double GTA$ & RP in these and in ALL Rockstar-Created Transform Races through June 11th.

  • Canal Crosser: Sure, you can turbo your hyperbike through jumps, rings and tubes and make it look easy but can you deal with the Vespucci canals? Rusting strollers, ex-FIB informants, the flaming wreckage of hovercars and amphibious quads – sometimes the naturally occurring obstacles are the trickiest.
  • Size Matters: There's nothing more exhilarating than threading a jetpack between the apartment blocks of downtown Los Santos. There's nothing more arousing than being at the controls of a delta wing military bomber. And there's nothing more psychologically damaging than rapidly moving between the two.
  • The Grotti Circuit: This fiery hurricane of jetpacks, flying cars and vintage classics raging through the heart of Los Santos is brought to you by Grotti, the Italian supercar manufacturer with a low threshold for bad publicity. Even the flaming wreckage is green, white and red. 
  • Plane and Simple: Disorientation is a funny thing. You take one too many inverted checkpoints in a fighter jet, and you'd swear you were stuck in a long, winding tunnel dodging rotating fans with absolutely no idea what vehicle you're using. Don't worry, it'll probably clear up soon.
  • Evolution: The tech only gets better - but can you keep up? Sure, your old Sports Classic is manageable. You can probably handle a juiced up stock car, too. But that vicious little hatchback is going to cause trouble - and as for the hypercar....Yeah, you're not ready.
  • Tug Life: It's a rule as old as high-speed racing itself: never fall out of the sky in a rusty tug boat on a full stomach. Or something like that – it doesn't really matter, because you're definitely doing it. 
  • Twister II: There was a time when if you asked any civilized person whether they fancied a high-speed corkscrew hundreds of feet above the Pacific, they would do the decent thing and assume you were hoping to join the mile high club. These days you're not even talking about a plane.
