'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds The Cayo Perico Series, New Vehicles, Collectible Buried Stashes, Bonuses And Much More

by Rainier on Aug. 11, 2022 @ 10:15 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.

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.

For the first time ever in GTA Online, racing comes to the island of Cayo Perico in The Cayo Perico Series, 10 new races with a mix of flying, boating, and driving – all doling out Double GTA$ and RP this week.

Plus, there’s word of a washed-up treasure hunter on the beaches of Los Santos. Find and acquire their Metal Detector to scan Cayo Perico for Buried Stashes, a new collectible exclusively found on the private island.

New Cayo Perico Series and the Declasse Draugur Now Available

In keeping with the tropical theme, log in to play GTA Online this week and receive the Keinemusik Cayo Perico Tee at no charge.

The New Declasse Draugur Out Now

If you’re on the right side of the hood, it’s a rough and ready dream. If you’re on the wrong side, it’s a titanium-reinforced nightmare. Meet the Draugur — the bare-bones legend with extreme off-road capabilities. Summoned from the darkest corners of Declasse, the Draugur will get you to hell and back without a scratch. Or to your local Cluckin’ Bell. Same difference.

Those who purchase the Declasse Draugur this week — available from Southern San Andreas Super Autos — will also receive the Gray Yeti Flat Cap, free of charge.

Comb the Beaches of Los Santos and Find Buried Stashes on Cayo Perico

Pay The Diamond Casino & Resort a visit and spin the Lucky Wheel anytime this week to get GTA$, RP, clothing and more. If you’re really capital-L Lucky, you’ll walk away with the Übermacht Cypher.

Car Meet Prize Ride and Test Track

And visit the Test Track to give the Windsor Drop, Lampadati Pigalle, and Enus Super Diamond a trial spin. See how they fare against the clock and other racers, or just throw up some smoke.

Cargo Bonuses and Rewards
