Rockstar Games has rolled out a festive holiday update for Grand Theft Auto Online, packed with new vehicles, generous free gifts, and exciting seasonal events for players. The update, which runs through early January, introduces a brand-new open-top supercar, offers a free helicopter, and showers players with holiday-themed items and bonuses.
New Supercars Hit the Streets of Los Santos
The headline addition is the Progen Luiva supercar, now available for purchase. This high-performance vehicle boasts a radical open-top design, completely lacking a roof, windscreen, or windows. Progen markets it as the ultimate machine for experiencing the sensory thrill of a Southern San Andreas winter. Players can buy it from Legendary Motorsport or view it in the Luxury Autos showroom window. GTA+ members have the exclusive option to acquire it at The Vinewood Car Club showroom on Elysian Island.
Another vehicle, the Vapid FMJ MK V, has transitioned from a track prototype to general availability. It can be purchased at Legendary Motorsport or the Luxury Autos showroom. As a special perk, GTA+ subscribers can claim this car for free until January 7. Players on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC can further enhance the FMJ MK V with performance upgrades at Hao's Special Works.
Festive Freebies and Limited-Time Rewards
Rockstar is spreading holiday cheer with a sack full of free rewards for all players. Anyone logging into GTA Online between December 23 and January 7 will automatically receive a bundle of holiday items. This includes:
- Season's Greetings Sweater
- New Year Fireworks Bodysuit
- Snowball Launcher
- Candy Cane melee weapon
- Firework Launcher with 20 rockets
- Refills for Snacks, Armour, and Ammo
Furthermore, players who completed all three New Listings Missions before December 7 are eligible for significant bonuses. They can claim a GTA$2,000,000 discount on any Prix Luxury Real Estate property and the exclusive Black Rockstar Varsity Crewneck, with this offer also valid until January 7. GTA+ members receive an extra GTA$1,000,000 off mansion properties.
In a separate promotion, from December 23 through December 29, all players can claim a free Buckingham SuperVolito Carbon helicopter from Elitás Travel. This aircraft can now be outfitted with a missile lock-on jammer at any Hangar Aircraft Workshop.
Seasonal Events and Multiplayer Bonuses
The update revives several popular holiday-themed game modes, including Yeti Hunt, Snowball Fights, the Gooch event, and the Weazel Plaza Shootout. A new collectible challenge tasks players with finding 25 hidden snowmen between December 23 and 29 to unlock the unique Snowman Outfit.
For those seeking lucrative opportunities, completing The Cluckin' Bell Farm Raid before January 7 can earn up to GTA$1,300,000 in bonuses. The community-focused Biker Weed Sell Missions are offering 2X GTA$ rewards, and the Community Series provides 2X GTA$ and RP (Reputation Points).
Owners of a Salvage Yard have a special robbery to tackle: completing The Gangbanger Robbery rewards them with a Vapid Clique car featuring a limited-time Merry Cliquemas livery. The holiday period also sees various vehicles and business properties available at discounts of 30-40%, making it an ideal time for players to expand their virtual empires.
This comprehensive holiday update ensures the streets of Los Santos are buzzing with new content, providing GTA Online players with plenty of reasons to log in and celebrate the season in style.
