'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds Valentine's Goodies And Bonuses, New Vehicle, Triple Rewards And More

by Rainier on Feb. 10, 2022 @ 10:02 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.

From stealing El Rubio’s rare Pink Diamond spotted on Cayo Perico to competing in Valentine’s-themed modes and snagging free themed clothing, there are plenty of ways to celebrate Valentine’s Day in GTA Online this week.

In addition, the Gallivanter Baller ST SUV, previously available for a limited time as a holiday gift, can now be purchased by all players from Legendary Motorsport.

Get Triple Rewards on Valentine's Day Themed Modes

Romance isn't the only thing in the air — all Till Death Do Us Part maps are dishing out 3X GTA$ and RP for the next week.

Dating in Los Santos is a little different than your usual metropolis. Till Death Do Us Part is a perfect example of the ultimate LS quadruple date: each couple shares one life between the two of them; if one dies, the survivor takes their own life. Sticking close to your partner actually does reward you with health regeneration bonuses, so your codependence is a strategic advantage.

If that doesn't pan out, there's always Shotgun Wedding, that small-scale Team Deathmatch set around the Paleto Bay chapel using only shotguns. It's a whole lot less of an ordeal than lawyering up, and it's paying out Triple Rewards all week long.

The Gallivanter Baller ST Now Available

Some words aren't meant to go together: toothpaste and citrus, culture and Sandy Shores, badass and SUV... that is, until the Baller ST arrived to smash through our socio-linguistic preconceptions much in the same way it smashed through the rear windshield of the car parked out front.


The Gallivanter Baller ST, reinventing so much more than the wheel. If you didn't already claim one during the holiday season, it is now available from Legendary Motorsport.

Free Valentine’s Day Themed Clothing and Gusenberg Sweeper

Valentine's Day is also the perfect occasion for dress-up: that's why all players can load up on Pink, Red, and White Weapon tints, and all Valentine's Day Massacre Special Clothing for free this week. You can also pick up the Prohibition-era Gusenberg Sweeper free of charge from all participating Ammu-Nation locations citywide.

Pink Diamond Spotted on Cayo Perico CCTV

The mainland doesn't have a monopoly on love, either: make your way to the sun-kissed isle of Cayo Perico and see if you can find a way in and out of El Rubio's fortified compound. Word on the wire is that the big boss-man's got his paws on a rosy Pink Diamond and stashed it. Keep an eye out for it on the villa's camera feeds. It'll be worth a pretty penny, if you can escape with it (and your life) intact.

3X GTA$ and RP on Casino Story Missions and Casino Work

Help Agatha Baker and the Chengs fight off a hostile takeover at the hands of the Duggans in Casino Story Missions, or call Ms. Baker to request some Casino Work and assist with the maintenance of the house, so to speak.Both are paying out 3X GTA$ and RP this week.

2X GTA$ and RP on Short Trips

Short Trips are now available for all players to experience via the Jobs menu, removing the previous requirement to complete Dr. Dre’s VIP Contract.

You can also jump straight into these out-of-body misadventures by using the Quick Job feature on your iFruit.Tag team your way through setting up the most exclusive organics business in Los Santos and earn 2X GTA$ & RP for the privilege.

Plus, the six new songs from Dr. Dre that premiered in GTA Online: The Contract are also now available for listening across all major digital music services — including Apple Music and Spotify.

Get The Many Wives of Alfredo Smith T-Shirt

Fancy presenting yourself as a bit of a cinephile at your next shindig? Show your appreciation for the tortured ex-stock car driver with a penchant for marrying the same woman, over and over and over again: all players will receive The Many Wives of Alfredo Smith T-Shirt, simply for logging in this week.

This Week's Prize Ride: The Albany Roosevelt

Maybe the only love in your life is the road, in which case dedicated LS Car Meet members who win a Street Race Series race three days in a row will earn the keys to the Albany Roosevelt seen parked atop the Slamtruck at the heart of the meet. This historic limousine is so classic, so timeless, it could be in a museum.

Test Out the Vapid Dominator ASP, Bravado Gauntlet Hellfire, and Declasse Impaler

Stop by the Car Meet's Test Track to give the Vapid Dominator ASP, Bravado Gauntlet Hellfire, and Declasse Impaler a spin, all of them decked out in Valentine's-appropriate hues.

This Week on the Podium: A Pretty Pink BF Club

Nothing sets the heart aflutter like the sound of clattering chips and the smell of defeat. Swing by the lobby of The Diamond Casino & Resort, give the Lucky Wheel a spin, and walk away with GTA$, clothing, accessories, snacks, not to mention all sorts of mystery prizes. This week's top prize is a set of keys for the very pink BF Club perched on the podium.
