'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds Triple Rewards on Business Battles, Rare Vehicles Return, Trick Or Treat Collectibles And More

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.

Paranormal and Supernatural Reports Rise as Halloween Arrives

Reports of the paranormal and downright supernatural have risen to frightening levels as Halloween arrives in Southern San Andreas … ghastly self-driving vehicles, UFO sightings, possessed animals, and even a runaway Cerberus truck.

This week is your final opportunity to document proof of life after death. Photographing 10 ghosts for the crew over at Ghost Exposed will land you the Ghosts Exposed livery for the Albany Brigham. Once you’ve received a text from them, comb the landscape of Blaine County and use your Snapmatic camera to get digital proof of these spectral visitors.

There are also plenty of ways to disguise your own true form. Collectible Masks are available all week long for completing various objectives.
