Get the lowdown on the new GTA Online update!

Rockstar has rolled out the latest update for Grand Theft Auto Online this week, offering a batch of new content and discounts for the popular online crime saga.

First up, players can fire up a new vehicle in the shape of the Ocelot Ardent, which can be picked up at the Warstock Cache and Carry. 

Meanwhile, the Bunker Series playlist and any Bunker-based Adversary Mode will reward double cash and RP until August 28, while the Vendetta Adversary Mode will also be offering double rewards during the same period. 

If you’re looking to make some quick cash, then flogging any boosted exotic cars during Vehicle Cargo Sell Missions will bag you double payout, while trading out of the Vehicle Cargo Warehouse will net you a 25 percent discount. 

Elsewhere, GTA Online will be offering cash rewards for competing in the Premium Special Vehicle Pulse Race and Coast to Coast time trial from August 22-28, although you’ll need to secure a top three position. Failing that, you’ll still net triple RP regardless of where you finish.

If that wasn’t enough, there’s a 25 percent discount off the  Smoke Tree Road Bunker at Maze Bank Foreclosures, while all executive offices are on a 25 percent discount at Dynasty 8. Finally, you can grab 25 percent off the following vehicles:

  • Rocket Voltic
  • Cognoscenti 55
  • Schafter LWB

GTA Online launched for PS3 and Xbox 360 in October 2013 following the release of Grand Theft Auto 5. The game was later expanded to PS4, PC, and Xbox One the following year, and continues to remain hugely popular among gamers.


Take-Two announced back in November 2015 that GTA Online regularly attracts around eight million players per week. Even before its launch on current-generation systems, the online crime caper had logged a massive 2.3 billion hours of playtime around the world.

In fact, it’s due to GTA Online’s enduring popularity that many people believe Rockstar scrapped plans for its GTA 5 single-player DLC.
