'Grand Theft Auto Online' Adds New Transform Races with Double Rewards, Gunrunning Boosts, Earn a Free Vom Feur Tee, and Much More

by Rainier on April 4, 2024 @ 8:45 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.

Compete in New Transform Races for 2X GTA$ and RP

Embrace uncertainty and gun it for the finish line in a fresh twist on Transform Races, where checkpoints bring new surprises.

In Known Unknown Races, switch to a different vehicle at various checkpoints, cycling randomly through a predetermined list until each available vehicle has been utilized. In Unknown Unknown Races, these vehicle switches are more unexpected, challenging players to adjust on the fly to a randomly selected ride drawn from a larger pool of available vehicles. 

You’ll need to adjust and account for others’ rides on the fly while earning 2X GTA$ and RP in these races through April 10. This week also features the return of classic Adversary Modes Overtime Rumble, Tiny Racers, and Collection Time.

Gunrunning Bonuses: 2X GTA$ and RP on Sell Missions, 3X Rewards on Bunker Research, and More

Manufacture below-board weaponry from a secure Bunker, pile it high atop a Delivery Vehicle, and make it to the drop-off location in one piece to earn Double Rewards for completing Bunker Sell Missions through April 10.

Call Agent 14 and Request Bunker Research to interrupt a shootout between local police and a target wearing heavy ballistic armor. Take out the target and bring its armor back to your Bunker staff to complete the Bunker Research Mission and reap Triple Rewards, including GTA$, RP, and Research progress.

Completing 3 Bunker Research Missions through April 10 will get you an additional lump sum of GTA$100,000 and the Dollar Daggers Hoodie as part of the Weekly Challenge. Any surplus weapons parts you’re left with can be stacked atop a Duneloader and delivered to local gun stores as part of the Ammu-Nation Contract in exchange for Double GTA$ and RP.

Considering a career in the illicit arms trade? Gunrunning Bunkers, along with all Upgrades and Modifications, are available at a 30% discount all week long.

New Community Guidelines

Today we have published a new set of Community Guidelines to help ensure a positive gaming experience for everyone. These guidelines, together with our Terms of Service, outline the guiding principles for the types of behaviors and actions we encourage, and those we do not allow inside our games. These will be updated periodically to reflect any ongoing changes.

Improving Text and Voice Chat

Over the past few months, we’ve taken steps to reduce instances of text chat spam and abuse in GTA Online sessions on PC. We’ve also recently updated voice chat settings across all platforms, which now defaults to OFF for all players. To turn voice chat on, head to Options > Settings > Voice Chat and click the Voice Chat enabled setting to ON.

Our new proactive voice chat moderation system also goes live today on all GTA Online platforms, enabling us to automatically identify and take action against any players found to be in violation of our new Community Guidelines. You can read more about voice chat moderation here.
