GTA Online Winter Update Details Revealed – Yusuf Amir Returns From GTA IV!


Details on the next GTA Online Update coming next month have been revealed, and a familiar face from Liberty City returns.

This winter, GTA Online has another major overhaul with new Quality of Life improvements, updates for PC and last-gen consoles, a new business, a new returning face, festive surprises and limited-time Rockstar Games 25th Anniversary in-game apparel. Oh, and did we mention that animals are coming to free-mode for Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 consoles…

 

 

A Familiar Face Returns

Boost up your crime experience by stealing, stripping and selling the most in-demand vehicles. These new robberies will be on behalf of a familiar face and a fan-favourite character, Yusuf Amir who you may remember from GTA IV: The Ballad of Gay Tony.

“Yusuf still lusts after the finer things in life — chief among them adding to his collection of luxury import vehicles by any means necessary. With the help of his cousin Jamal, you’ll be charged with planning and executing intricate, high-stakes robberies under the cover of Red’s Auto Parts, a new purchasable salvage yard where you’ll call the shots. Sell the best of the best to Yusuf or salvage your boosted vehicles for parts — the choice, and the cash, is yours.”

 

 

 

‘Tis The Season To Be Drifting

New Drift Races and Drift Modifications come to GTA Online this Winter, with customisation in the LS Car Meet allowing you to bring the joy of drifting to Freemode.

  • GTA+ Members will get access to The Vinewood Club Garage, a new vehicle storage facility with the capacity to hold 100 vehicles
