'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds New Vehicle, Free DJ Pooh Tee, Triple Rewards in Power Play And More

by Rainier on Jan. 6, 2022 @ 9:43 a.m. PST

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.

GTA Online players can now add a brand-new car to their collection, the enviable Pfister Comet S2 Cabrio, available to purchase at Legendary Motorsport.

In addition, this week brings Double Rewards in the Nightlife Leak Finale and the challenging Specialist+ Security Contracts – both of which debuted as part of The Contract.

Inspire Envy with the New Pfister Comet S2 Cabrio

A car so light, fast, and easy to drive, you barely have to lift a finger. Coincidentally, it’s also the most popular car for the millionaire under 25. So, you can pull up in Vinewood Hills, pull down the roof, watch the sunset, and make more trust fund babies in the passenger seat. That’s asset growth.

 

The Pfister Comet S2 Cabrio, available now at Legendary Motorsport.

2X GTA$ and RP on Nightlife Leak Finale

After pursuing all leads on Dr. Dre’s stolen cell phone, head to The Diamond Casino and recover the copy of Dr. Dre’s stolen music from the Penthouse party. All players who complete Nightlife Leak Finale this week will receive 2X GTA$ and RP.

Plus, any player who meets with Dr. Dre this week at the Los Santos Golf Club in the intro to The Data Leaks will net the Orange DJ Pooh Tee after dealing with those unruly golfers. This tee will be delivered to all eligible players by Jan 21.

Returning Modes

Itchy trigger fingers rejoice — four modes requiring serious marksman skills return to GTA Online this month in Every Bullet Counts, Hardest Target, Kill Quota, and Power Play.

3X GTA$ and RP on Power Play

Far from your garden variety deathmatch, Power Play supercharges the concept with a selection of power-ups at your disposal to give you and your team the competitive edge, if only for a short time. Whoever wins or loses, all players walk away with 3X GTA$ and RP this week.

This Week’s Car Meet Prize Ride: The Annis Euros

LS Car Meet members who emerge as one of the top dogs in the Top 3 across nine different Pursuit Series races this week, besting not only their peers but the LSPD, will earn the keys to the Annis Euros — seen in all its glory atop the Slamtruck at the heart of the Meet — in return. Use it wisely and responsibly.

Try Out the Vapid Dominator ASP, Dinka RT3000, and Übermacht Cypher on the Test Track

Try before you buy this week: visit the Test Track and give the Vapid Dominator ASP, Dinka RT3000, and Übermacht Cypher their respective spins around the painted circuit, challenge others to randomized Scrambles, or try to beat your personal best in a Time Trial.

This Week on the Podium: The Coil Raiden

The Diamond Casino & Resort rewards all sorts of behaviors: drinking, visiting the track, roulette, among other things. Stop by the Lucky Wheel in the lobby and you might be rewarded with GTA$, RP, clothing, accessories, snacks, and myriad mystery prizes.

This week on the podium? So glad you asked: the Coil Raiden, a whisper-quiet electric sports car that disrupted our ideas of electricity, sports, and cars upon its release.

Discounts:

Close quarters usually means a more intimate form of combat — but you can always blow the door down with a free Minigun, if that’s your preferred MO. Speaking of weapons and combat, step your armament game up — all Mk II Weapons Mods are half off for the next week.
