By cycling GTA Online Jobs and Adversary modes, Rockstar is freeing up space for new missions and modes

Rockstar has said it is continuing to improve and evolve GTA Online, and one of the ways it is doing this is by cycling select Adversary Modes and Player Jobs in and out of the game.

According to the studio, because GTA Online offers such a diverse array of gameplay, with over 1,000 Rockstar-created Jobs and “tens of millions” player-created Jobs, cycling Rockstar-created Jobs in and out of the game over time will help free up space for future new missions and modes.

The firm said another way it is improving the game is focusing on the game’s matchmaking by steering the community toward a more streamlined list of Jobs from week to week.
