Exciting news for Grand Theft Auto (GTA) enthusiasts: GTA Online is set to receive another major annual update this December, alleviating concerns from players about the impact of GTA 6 on the online experience.
Following the highly anticipated announcement of GTA 6 at the close of 2023, fans were worried that Rockstar Games might prioritize the new installment over ongoing support for GTA Online. Social media was abuzz with questions regarding the future of the game, but Rockstar has confirmed its commitment to delivering fresh content.
New Content and Operations in December
The updates over the past year have included exciting new features such as the Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid Heist and the Bottom Dollar Bounties update, enabling players to manage the Bail Office business. In addition to these game-changing updates, Rockstar has consistently introduced weekly updates, featuring new vehicles and collectible items.
As we approach the festive season, there have been growing inquiries about the forthcoming December update. Rockstar has now responded affirmatively, revealing plans for new content throughout the holiday season. As highlighted in their community update on November 1, the infamous Darnell Bros Garment Factory is under new management. Players will work alongside helmsman Pavel and a former FIB officer to transform the factory into a hub for secret operations, launching an array of exhilarating new heists.
The Garment Factory is set to become a focal point for new jobs and operations.
Additionally, players can expect enhancements at the Vinewood Car Club, automatic refills of Body Armor at the start of jobs, and other vehicle updates through Hao’s Special Works.
What is the Release Date for the December 2024 Update?
While Rockstar has yet to specify an exact release date for the new content, trends from previous years suggest a possible rollout on the second Tuesday of December. Typically, this would be December 10, 2024; however, there is a possibility it might shift to the following Thursday, December 12, given that Thursdays are commonly reserved for GTA updates.
GTA Online has consistently embraced holiday festivities.
This December, players can look forward to festive gifts and the chance to earn additional rewards through ongoing Community Challenges. Moreover, PC gamers will finally gain access to the next-gen update, previously enjoyed by players on PS5 and Xbox Series S/X.
