The festive season has officially descended upon Los Santos.
While the streets of Southern San Andreas aren’t coated in white just yet, the forecast predicts heavy snowfall and an blizzard of gifts arriving very soon.
Rockstar Games has kicked off the holiday celebrations in GTA Online this week, bringing a brand-new futuristic supercar, substantial cash bonuses for raiding the Cluckin’ Bell factory, and a sack full of freebies for players on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, and PC.
Whether you are looking to expand your luxury car collection or hunt down mythical beasts in the snow, this update ensures your stocking will be overflowing well into the New Year.
A New Sleigh for the Streets
If you enjoy the wind in your hair – and bugs in your teeth – the latest addition to the Legendary Motorsport showroom is for you.
Forget about windscreens, roofs, or windows. Progen’s latest creation, the Luiva, strips away the unnecessary to focus purely on speed and sensory overload. Described as a “super powered sleigh,” this supercar is designed to fuse high-calibre performance with weightlessness.
It is available to purchase now, or GTA+ members can pick it up at The Vinewood Car Club.
Further, and previously exclusive to GTA+ members, the impressive Vapid FMJ MK V is now available for everyone to purchase. Whether you grab it from Legendary Motorsport or the Luxury Autos showroom, this track-born beast is ready for civilian roads.
‘Tis the Season for Free Gifts
Rockstar is embracing the spirit of giving this year with a generous selection of login rewards.
- Free Buckingham Helicopter – From December 23 through December 29, all players can claim the Buckingham SuperVolito Carbon helicopter absolutely free from Elitás Travel. To sweeten the deal, you can now fit it with a Missile Lock-On Jammer at your Hangar Workshop, ensuring your festive flights are uninterrupted by homing missiles.
