GTA Online's weekly update offers triple the rewards on land races

Players are dipping into GTA Online to see what's in this week's update. Rockstar will post an official rundown on its newswire later on in the day, but the update is already live, so why wait?


If you're looking to fetch some more dosh this week, you'll want to spend some time doing land races as they're paying out triple the usual reward. Land races are a reasonably straightforward affair as they involve doing laps until you hit the finish line, but they also capture the simple joy of racing in Los Santos.


If you're looking for something else, you can get double the rewards on special cargo missions and business battles. The former is all about delivering stock when you've filled your warehouse to a certain amount, whereas the latter is a free mode event that pits you against other players who are trying to nab cargo. If you need a warehouse - or fancy a new one - you can pick one up at a 50% discount. You're also getting 40% off high-end apartments and the Diamond Casino master penthouse alongside 60% off all offices.

GTA Online weekly update adds eight new Stunt Races

Earlier this month we reported that GTA Online would be getting eight new Stunt Races to get stuck into on May 27. Well, if you've looked at the calendar, you'll know that's this very day - and those races have now indeed hit Rockstar's online action-adventure game. While the official rundown hasn't yet been posted to the studio's Newswire just yet, players have been taking a peep at what's new with today's weekly update.


As Tez2 reports on Twitter, the eight new Stunt Races are available to play right now. These are a kind of fact-paced race that involve - yep, you guessed it - performing stunts and tricks around a bunch of different obstacles, like ramps, loop-the-loops, rings of fire, and that kind of thing. There were already more than 40 in the game, and now there are even more to try out.


Elsewhere in the weekly update, the panther statue from the Cayo Perico heist which was at last made lootable last week has now been disabled. But, the good news is there's a new GTA Online podium car as ever, which this week is the flashy Nero Custom hypercar.

Rockstar are launching an actual record label called CircoLoco Records


What are Rockstar launching this week? No, it isn't Grand Theft Auto V on another platform. It's also not another nightclub inside of GTA Online, but that is warmer. Rockstar have actually partnered with club music event hosts CircoLoco to launch CircoLoco Records. Yes, in real life, not in GTA. The label's first compliation record, Monday Dreamin’, releases on July 9th but they've already debuted the first track off the album.

GTA Online's panther statue is finally lootable from the Cayo Perico heist

At long last, you can now nab the panther statue from GTA Online's Cayo Perico heist. Players have been dipping into Los Santos to see what's new in the GTA Online weekly update and lo and behold! There it is, alongside the usual offering of discounts and boosted rewards.


Rockstar Games tipster Tez2 explains that the statue is available as Cayo Perico loot with a one-time guaranteed chance this week. Players have been waiting for this one as it's the most lucrative thing you can get from the heist, fetching a price of GTA $1.73 million on normal and GTA $1.9 million on the hard difficulty. Now that's available, nabbing it should be a breeze. Simply select the panther statue as your heist target, decide on your approach for the Cayo Perico heist, and then jump in and swipe it.


The way this all works is similar to what Rockstar has done with the Diamond Casino heist. The most lucrative thing you can capture from the casino's vault is diamonds, though it's only offered when special events roll around.
