If something has kept GTA 5 as the best-selling game week after week, it’s GTA Online. Even though the base game is incredible, what has given it its exceptional longevity is the popularity of GTA Online. Both for all the people who use it to play role-playing games and those who focus on what the experience curated by Rockstar itself offers. Because this week, in addition, Rockstar has decided to enhance one of the parts of the game experience with a new inclusion.
Rockstar has just introduced Drag Races and, until January 31st, they will give double rewards in GTA Online, both in RP and GTA$. In these races, timing is important, as you will have to dodge traffic while trying to outperform your competitors, always with a limited amount of nitro. To start, you will need a Mimi Membership at the LS Car Meet, and if you don’t have one yet, you’re in luck. During this week, the membership will cost 50% less, making it much easier to join these crazy urban races.
If racing is not your thing, that doesn’t mean you have to give up on better rewards. Auto Shop heist contracts also have double rewards throughout the week, just like in the Rhino Hunt competition, which will allow you to have motorized action without the need to compete in speed races if that’s not your thing. Although you better enjoy theft or senseless destruction. Two very GTA-like things, by the way.
In addition, during this week, there are juicy discounts on everything related to cars. The properties, modifications, and improvements of Auto Shop have a 30% discount, and there are also several showrooms that will allow you not only to acquire exclusive vehicles only during this week but also to get some of them with a juicy discount.
All of this will remain in effect until January 31st. So if you like cars and their possibilities, you should take advantage of burning GTA Online and getting more rewards and benefits while they are still active. Because even though Rockstar surely have something new in mind, not every week they give so much love to car lovers.
