Another week means another update in GTA Online, bringing with it a slew of new and returning content to dive into - and I'm here to keep you in the loop with all the new vehicles, sweet deals, and everything else on offer.

Grand Theft Auto Online still has a large and ardent player base, so new content coming to the game - regardless of whether it's a heist or something smaller - is bound to keep players engaged with new ways to play. As such, you can expect quite a few tweaks and changes when it comes to the weekly update - so here's all that's on offer right now.

Weekly update release time

GTA Online's weekly update goes live every Thursday at 4 AM ET/9 AM BST, so the next update you can expect to see will be on May 23, 2024.
