'GTA Online' Adds New Ways to Earn Double Rewards, Teases New Mode
It’s Tuesday, so GTA Online has released its regular weekly update. While there aren’t many new things to find this time around, there are plenty of opportunities to earn double GTA$ and RP rewards. Additionally, Rockstar has teased a new vehicle and game mode coming in next week’s update.
Gunrunning Sell missions will pay out with double GTA$ and RP through April 16. Research tasks in the Bunker will also run 50 percent faster than normal. These missions will unlock upgrades when completed. In addition, the new Target Assault races will pay double the normal rewards through April 16.
You’ll want to save up the money, because a new vehicle will release next week. The Weeny Issi Classic will be available for purchase from Southern San Andreas Super Autos, and also takes center stage in the new Vespucci Job game mode. In this mode, players will either run from the LSPD in the Weeny Issi Classic, or take on the role of the police and hunt down the vehicle. Additionally, a new Sports car and helicopter will be included in next week’s update.
