Bikers

  • MC Presidents will be able to customize client motorcycles to their desired requirements in clubhouses with the Custom Bike Shop and then return the modified motorbikes for GTA$ and RP.
  • Additionally, two new Clubhouse Contracts will be provided that can be accessed from the wall of the clubhouse's conference room.
  • A new Bar Resupply task will be available to gain some additional GTA$.

Gunrunners

  • Making a daily delivery to a specific Ammu-Nation store will provide an additional source of money.
  • When stocking a bunker, two additional Resupply Missions will become available.
  • Additionally, players can start resupply missions from the road or advance their research by obtaining information from a well-armed mark.

Nightclub Owners

  • Owners of nightclubs may now call Yohan to source Goods for their warehouse or Tony to start Club Management assignments.

Gamers will be sworn in as special IAA agents to investigate a criminal conspiracy in the new covert missions added by the latest GTA Online update. The IAA is concerned about the recent increase in gas prices because they believe the unscrupulous Duggan petrochemical family is manipulating the market to their advantage.

This gas price hike seems to be the main plot of The Criminal Enterprises, at least according to what has been revealed. Contacting Agent ULP will start a new set of missions called Operation Paper Trail, which is open to 1-4 players.

Famous data miner alloc8or recently revealed that two new weapons would be included in the next update. These are the Tactical Assault Rifle and the PRCS Sniper Rifle, which can be seen in the recently published screenshots.

He also mentioned new skydiving activities connected to a skydive collectible.

The game code features new Daily Collectibles named "Buried Stashes," with the coordinates spread around the Cayo Perico Map, as discovered by well-known insider TezFunz2. Additionally, they mention the need for a Metal Detector to locate the Stashes.

The official trailer showed off some new Races taking place on Cayo Perico. This would imply that the island will be made available for free-roam exploration rather than just Heist preparations.
