The GTA Online Happy Holidays event has introduced five Snowball Fight Deathmatches to the multiplayer, each of which can involve between four and 12 players grouped into two teams.

The goal is to score points by knocking out rivals. For this, each participant must use snowballs. Some Snowball Fight Deathmatches involve throwing snowballs by hand like one would do grenades, whereas others let gamers use the newly added Snowball Launcher.

A successful hit results in a knockout and awards one point. You can use the various cover options in the play area to avoid getting hit; however, being stationary will make you an easy target. Therefore, you must try to keep moving. Once the match timer runs out, the team with the most points is the declared winner.
