GTA Online weekly update boosts rewards on VIP and bodyguard work

The GTA Online weekly update is here, folks, and that can only mean it's Thursday. Rockstar Games will post the full notes on the Newswire later today, though the update is already live, so fans are dipping into Los Santos to see what's worth doing this week.

You're getting triple the usual in-game cash and reputation points on associate and bodyguard work alongside stunt races. Rockstar is also boosting the rewards on VIP and motorcycle club work by double. If you've been out of the loop, MC work applies to specific missions like Joust, Stand Your Ground, and Caged In. VIP and Bodyguard work, meanwhile, was introduced back in the Executives and Criminals update back in 2016.

If you're looking for a new set of wheels, the GTA Prize Ride is the Hakuchou Drag, which you can earn by finishing in the top three of five pursuit races. The GTA Podium Vehicle, meanwhile, is the Savestra - more luck is involved in that one, but this might just be your week.

Now you can ride your real bike around Grand Theft Auto in multiplayer

One of the coolest mod ideas is GTBike V, which basically lets you turn Grand Theft Auto V into Zwift, pedalling a bike in the real world to ride a virtual bike around Los Santos. Now a new version has added multiplayer, letting you trundle around the same city independently or join up for group rides. It almost makes me want to get the kit to hook my bike up.

Once again Thursday is upon us, which means it's time for the GTA Online weekly update, and as always players are already hard at work digging out all the juicy updates ahead of the official patch notes from Rockstar Games later on.

This week's rewards boots are on Lamar missions, Bunker Sell missions, Special Cargo missions, and select Survival Modes, all of which will double up your in-game cash and reputation points rewards, making it a great time to cash in if you've been stockpiling. Meanwhile, Tuner Races are offering up twice the normal reputation boost. Players with GTA+ membership can claim triple reputation rewards in Street Races, though this paid "feature" is limited to those on the newest console hardware.

If you're after some fancy new digs, high-end apartments are available at a 30% discount. If a new set of wheels is more your style, the stylish Jester RR sports coupe is 40% off. Alternatively, you can nab yourself a Savestra as the elusive GTA podium vehicle if you get lucky spinning the Diamond Casino wheel, or earn this week's GTA Prize Ride, the Itali GTO, for five top-three finishes in LS Car Meet races.
