Even though Rockstar has already started the Festive Surprise holiday event in GTA Online, even more items have been added, including a new game mode and a new car.
The new game mode is called Juggernaut. Think of it as a really weird take on chess. There are two teams, and each team has a heavily-armored player called the Juggernaut. The goal is to kill the enemy Juggernaut while protecting your own, like a King in chess. If either team can’t kill the enemy Juggernaut in the time limit, sudden death rules kick in making everyone a Juggernaut. From here, the first kill wins.
Those who play the new Juggernaut game mode from now to Jan. 1 will earn double RP and GTA$.
As for new cars, the Pfister Comet Retro Custom is now available at Benny’s Custom Motors or your own Executive Garage Custom Auto Shop if you have one of those. The Comet Retro Custom looks to me like an older Porsche, so start thinking of customization inspirations now.
As for Christmas presents, GTA Online has something for everyone as well. All players who log in to play on Dec. 25 will get the following items for free:
• Unicorn Mask
• Set of Pajamas (Either White Graphic or Blue Check)
• Fireworks Launcher plus 10 Fireworks rockets
• Carbine Rifle plus 200 rounds of Ammo
• Marksman Rifle plus 200 rounds of Ammo
• Basic Knuckle Dusters
• 25 Sticky Bombs
• 25 Grenades
• 5 Proximity Mines
• 5 Molotovs
• Full Snacks
• Full Armor
Rockstar says there will also be gifts given out to those who log in on Dec. 23, 24 and 26 as well, if you happen to be, you know, celebrating the holidays with your family. Also on Dec. 24 and 25 only, you can get extra cash by doing the following activities:
• 50% more GTA$ on all Vehicle Exports
• 50% more GTA$ on all Biker Business Sales
• 50% more GTA$ on all Special Cargo Deliveries
