Unlock Special Rewards in New GTA Online Community Challenges

The entire city’s juiced with excitement, bolstered by the caffeine rush of a new Community Challenge issued by the titans of the carbonated beverage industry. There’s also a surge in demand for Export Requests courtesy of Simeon Yetarian, boosted bottom lines on an assortment of modes and activities, and so much more.

SPRUNK & ECOLA CHALLENGE

After pitting drinkers of Sprunk and eCola against each other last year in a fierce battle for brand supremacy, Big Soda is now flipping the script and aiming to mobilize their combined forces to preach the health-boosting effects of these sugary, caffeine-laden concoctions.

Sprunk and eCola fanatics must now unite to guzzle a combined total of 100 million cans of Sprunk and eCola by November 29, and in doing so unlock custom Sprunk and eCola vanity license plates, the dashing new Sprunk x eCola Bodysuit, and a fierce Sprunk x eCola branded livery for the Mammoth F-160 Raiju Plane (25% off this week). If successful, the Raiju livery, the Bodysuit, and the vanity plates will be unlocked for the entire community later this year.

Grab a Sprunk or eCola from your owned properties, Simeon’s Premium Deluxe Motorsport showroom, or vending machines around Southern San Andreas to get in on the action. Consume directly from vending machines, via the Interaction Menu, or when enjoying Snacks via the Weapon Wheel and do your part!

SIMEON’S EMPLOYEE OF THE MONTH CHALLENGE

Simeon Yetarian knows a good opportunity when he sees it. With so much of the local populace buzzing off Sprunk and eCola induced sugar rushes, it's the perfect time to channel that communal energy into boosting high-demand vehicles for his clientele.

Take part in Simeon’s Employee of the Month Challenge and prove your worth to the proprietor of Premium Deluxe Motorsport. If the community can collectively complete GTA$15,000,000,000 worth of Simeon Export requests by November 15, all players will receive a special livery later this year.

Check your text messages for a daily list of Export Requests from the man himself (also paying out 3X GTA$ and RP this week) and deliver these vehicles to the dockside garage at the Terminal.

GTA 6 may be coming soon, but a GTA movie seems unlikely to quickly follow unless Take-Two changes its mind

While Rockstar has started up the GTA 6 hype train this week, some new comments from Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick seem to suggest the likelihood of us getting a film or TV adaptation based on the series any time soon are pretty slim.

Following Nintendo’s big announcement that a live action Legend of Zelda movie is in the works, Zelnick was asked about the prospect of franchises like GTA and Red Dead Redemption making their way into the wider entertainment sphere during Wednesday’s earnings call (thanks, VGC). Judging by his response, Rockstar and Take-Two are taking a cautious attitude towards opportunities that could bring either to the big screen or little screen.

The exec characterised the approach the latter has adopted with regards to TV or film adaptation of its properties as “very, very selective, and very careful”, even if it has greenlit Borderlands and BioShock movies.

The GTA Online weekly update for November 9-15 is here, and Rockstar Games has two big community events starting this week in its GTA 5 multiplayer mode. With the whole world awaiting our first official look at GTA 6 in December, many of you may be eager to jump back into Rockstar's online world to get back in the swing of all things Grand Theft Auto, and it's a great week to do so with this pair of community challenges and some huge discounts.

The biggest question GTA 6 has to answer is: what to do about GTA Online?

When first I played GTA Online back in the Xbox 360 days it felt like an afterthought, a chance to play some random good-for-nothing in GTA 5's sizzling alt-Los Angeles, securely cloistered away from the events of the all-important singleplayer story. Having built yourself a no-name crim, you galloped around cranking out cash and XP by means of glorified sidequests handed down by headliners such as Lamar. Skip forward to 2023, and as Alice0 observed when we discussed Rockstar's GTA 6 announcements this morning, GTA Online is effectively an MMO with ten years of updates, expansions and community projects under its belt. The no-name crim has become the star attraction.

Rockstar Games has finally confirmed that a GTA 6 trailer is coming in December, so you can all stop asking about it.

This news follows a recent report which claimed that the publisher could reveal the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series as early as this week, before releasing a trailer in December. As it turns out, the announcement has come today, with Rockstar having elected to put it out via a Twitter post attributed to co-founder and president Sam Houser.

In this post, Houser wrote: "We are very excited to let you know that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you."
