Solo or up to three teammates can tackle it, with pre-load details yet to be announced.
GTA Online runs a July 9–13 Event Week ahead of the Kortz Center Heist update, offering Independence Day rewards, hats and apparel, and heavy discounts on bunkers, agencies, and vehicles.

The update is slated for mid-July.

Noire, and Red Dead Redemption. GTA V has sold over 230 million units. GTA 6 arrives November 19 for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, and Rockstar is expected to begin marketing the title this summer.
Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick dismissed claims that Red Dead Online represents a missed opportunity, stressing that Red Dead Redemption 2’s multiplayer has been hugely successful with 85 million copies sold. He argues GTA Online remains the primary revenue driver, that Rockstar shifted focus toward GTA 6 and GTA Online, and notes Red Dead Online has seen limited updates since 2021 even as a recent Blood Money drop arrived; a full return of Red Dead Online remains unconfirmed while GTA Online continues to generate far more weekly revenue.

Maximum resale price is now $500,000, and resale value of mods is reduced to 10% of their purchase price. The update also includes permanent price adjustments to several vehicles. The changes arrive alongside a new Event Week and GTA+ month.,
GTA Online kicks off Motor Madness Event Week (May 14–20) with major price changes on 30+ vehicles, revised sell prices, and new content like the Water Like livery for the Vapid FMJ MK V; players can earn rewards through double payouts on select content, daily spins at the casino for a chance to win the Benefactor LM87, a Prize Ride to unlock the Krieger, Premium Test Ride for the Weeny Issi Rally, and numerous discounts across LS Car Meet, tuning upgrades and garages, plus GTA+ perks (extra spins) and bonuses on races, Simeon missions and Salvage Yard activities.

An Event Week and GTA+ month accompany the update as fans speculate about Mr. Faber; a mid-June release is anticipated with more details to come.
Rockstar announces Old School Hits, a GTA Online mode crafted with GTA Series using the Mission Creator to evoke the original GTA trilogy. It’s exclusive to PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC’s Enhanced edition, with an Event Week starting May 1 offering 4x GTA$ and RP. Rockstar also teases more Community Mission Series content later this year and a motorsport-based Community Race Series next month; featured creators can earn GTA$10,000,000 plus a rare Varsity Jacket and Mansion Trophy.
A data breach revealing GTA Online and Red Dead Online revenue numbers led to a Take-Two stock spike at market open, as investors bet on GTA Online’s profitability (about $1 million per day). No GTA 6 data was released, and the stock later settled around the mid-$200s.
Hackers’ leaked data verified by Eurogamer/Kotaku shows GTA Online still earns roughly $1.3 million per day (about $9.5 million weekly, ~$499 million yearly), with the PS5 version driving most microtransaction revenue and PC accounting for a small slice; Red Dead Online brings in about $507k weekly. The data underscores why Rockstar can continue investing in GTA Online ahead of GTA 6, even as the latter remains in development, and follows a ransom dispute where Rockstar refused to pay.
A data leak tied to Rockstar/ ShinyHunters shows GTA Online remains popular across generations, with PS4 reportedly leading Xbox Series X in GTA Online users, while PS5 tops weekly active players at about 3.47 million; Xbox Series X trails behind, with Xbox One and PC also below. GTA VI is slated for November 19 but has been delayed. Insider Gaming will continue to report on GTA updates and invites readers to discuss on Discord and sign up for the weekly newsletter.

The update also features the usual mix of activities: a daily spin for a chance at the Benefactor Schlagen GT, various robberies and priority files, Classic Race/Time Trial content, Premium Test Ride vehicles, dealership lineups, gun van stock, discounts on select properties and vehicles, and GTA+ benefits and bonuses across missions and events.
