Bad news, now that the Christmas event is over, all the snow is gone from Los Santos and GTA Online. This also means all the other festive specialties are no longer available. But, the new year brings good tidings, and the usual Thursday update arrives with a bunch of new stuff (sans cars, which is a bummer).
First up is the railgun. This experimental weapon was first introduced on the PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5 and has long been one of the most highly requested guns for Grand Theft Auto Online. Technically, it's been in GTA Online for a while but you couldn't really get it outside of certain missions and adversary modes — until now. Gun Van will be more than happy to give you a railgun for the right price. It comes with a 20 max ammo capacity with two sets of ammo.
Scroll down for more information about all the new stuff that's coming and will be available on GTA Online from January 12-18:
- 2 x GTA$ and RP from Community Series
- 50% extra GTA$ and RP from First Dose missions
- Play on the new "Hard" difficulty setting for more rewards through February 8
As awesome as the rewards are for completing First Dose on the "Hard" difficulty, we can't really say that the prizes will come easy.
