GTA Online players are abuzz this week about a new rumor that suggests the online version of Grand Theft Auto V may be getting a massive update that’ll include a “map expansion” for the game. The current map itself is huge and has plenty to do, but if the rumor plays out like GTA Online players hope it will, it’ll be the first map expansion of this kind that’ll happen in the history of the game. That same update will also reportedly add things like another heist with all that new content sure to keep players busy for a while longer.

GTA 5 Clothes Won in Casino Wheel Finally Found!! I’ve gotten the Red Mist XI which is a soccer jersey style polo shirt and “The Vespucci” but don’t know what clothing category that’s in and haven’t been able to find it. Best of luck on collecting. We're fast approaching December and it looks like Christmas is coming early to GTA Online in the form of the new Cayo Perico Heist update! Due to this, it looks like Rockstar won't be dropping a. Make sure you spin the Lucky Wheel on the casino floor every day for a 1 in 20 chance to win the nearby podium vehicle, which at the time of writing is a previously released GTA Online casino car.

The rumor comes way of Rockstar Mag, which claims it's heard the above information from more than one source. Further, it cites the recent GorillazGTA 5 music video, which has since been taken down, and seemingly teased a new island location at the end of it.

Bolstering this claim, Rockstar Mag points out that during its latest earnings call, Take-Two Interactive -- the parent company of Rockstar Games -- and its CEO Strauss Zelnick, told their investors that they are expecting the biggest ever quarter for GTA Online to close out the fiscal year which is running until April 1, 2021. Zelnick doesn't go into detail on why he and Take-Two Interactive are projecting such a huge quarter for the game, but he does tease investors that the game's biggest update is nearing, suggesting this is the reason behind the bold projection.

'Both Grand Theft Auto Online and Red Dead Online will receive major updates later this fiscal year, featuring an extension to existing Frontier Pursuits for Red Dead Online, as well as Grand Theft Auto Online’s biggest update ever, featuring a new take on Heists in a new location,' said Zelnick via Business Wire.

As you can see, Zelnick flat out teases a 'new location' alongside the new Heist and the new update, but many assumed this new location would be something akin to the Diamond Casino, not a proper map expansion. And it may still very well be just this, but according to Rockstar Mag, the map expansion is a big reason why this update is being billed as it is.

For now, Rockstar Games and Take-Two Interactive haven't disclosed a release date for the update beyond that it will release sometime before this fiscal year ends on April 1, 2021. The current expectation is the game will get a substantial update next month, but it remains to be seen if this will be the 'biggest update ever.'

Free spending money in any game is a welcome bonus, but it’s an even better deal in games like GTA Online when there are so many weapons, facilities, and vehicles to spend your money on. Thanks to a weekly update themed all around making and stealing money, GTA Online players are being granted a one-time bonus of 1 million GTA$ that’ll be added to their accounts soon. The best part about the bonus besides simply getting free spending cash is that you can get the bonus for basically doing nothing at all.

The GTA Online update for this week that’s live now tasked players with stealing money from the Diamond Casino & Resort to work towards a community goal. That’s all well and good if you’ve got time to help with that, but if you’re busy with all the next-gen games released this week alongside the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, all you have to do is log into GTA Online and play for a bit to get your free money.

The Heist Challenge

If the community can collectively steal GTA$100 Billion across all GTA Online Heist Finales between now and November 18th, we’ll reward everybody with a special new vehicle, free of charge for a limited time this December.

“Even if pulling together for everyone's collective benefit isn't really your style, anybody who plays GTA Online at any point between now and November 18th will receive a special bonus infusion of GTA$, to the tune of GTA$1,000,000,” Rockstar Games said about the giveaway. “Come back between November 19th and 25th to claim your GTA$1M - just in time to give your finances a nice boost before the holidays.”

This brief wait means you won’t be able to spend it right away, but it’ll be in your account before too long. Rockstar Games routinely gives players free things in GTA Online like shirts or other cosmetics which you can pass up, but that amount of GTA$ isn’t something you’ll want to overlook, so be sure to log into the game at some point before November 18th.

While you’re there, you might as well help the community work towards the group goal so that everyone can get another bonus. Rockstar Games has tasked players with stealing the sizable sum of 100 billion GTA$ which is no small feat, but if everyone’s able to pull it off, players will be awarded a “special new vehicle.” It hasn’t been confirmed yet what that vehicle will be, but like the money and the cosmetics, free is free.
