GTA Online weekly update October 12: Halloween event, new vehicle, free rewards, Prize Ride & discounts
Rockstar GamesThe GTA Online October 12 weekly update patch notes are here, bringing with it a new car, a Halloween celebration, as well as various discounts, and boosts. Here’s everything you need to know about Rockstar’s newest GTA update.
As regular GTA Online players will know, Rockstar provides a new update each week, adding or switching around content. This usually includes login bonuses, boosted rewards for specific missions, featured races, and a whole lot more.
The past 12 months have been a big one for Rockstar Games and Grand Theft Auto with tons of drama and news involving GTA 6. The long-awaited sequel was revealed last year, but the game has been exposed, presumably, well ahead of time with a huge leak. Rockstar has since confirmed the leaked footage to be genuine, and the hacker has been arrested.
We’re still waiting for more info on that front and the GTA Online follow-up, but until that time, let’s see what’s been added in the most recent GTA 5 update on October 12, 2023. These are the full patch notes.
