Players have a huge opportunity in GTA Online this week where they can earn double rewards by hustling in the Hardest Target Adversary Mode. Like most other Adversary Modes in the game, it is a 2-team mode with a maximum player count of 16, and a minimum of four are required to start it.

In this Adversary Mode, one member from each team turns into the “target” who has more armor compared to other side's members. The opponents must eliminate the target, and they will be rewarded points on the following basis:

  • One point - Eliminating the opposite team’s target by regular team members.
  • Three points - Eliminating the opposite team’s target by the other target.

The “target” changes from player-to-player every minute at random to keep the other team feeling the tension. Various kinds of weapons can be found scattered around the map, including shotguns, assault rifles, and grenades.

There are nine different maps available for the Hardest Target Adversary Mode as mentioned below in the list:

  • Hardest Target I – Rancho
  • Hardest Target II – O’Neil Ranch in Grapeseed
  • Hardest Target III – Paleto Bay
  • Hardest Target IV – Sandy Shores
  • Hardest Target V – Humane Labs and Research
  • Hardest Target VI – Pacific Bluffs Country Club, Pacific Bluffs
  • Hardest Target VII – Pier 400, Elysian Island
  • Missile Base – Hardest Target – Mount Chiliad Launch Facility
  • Diamond Hardest Target – The Diamond Casino & Resort

The last two maps were added with the Arena War and the Los Santos Summer update, respectively. Each one is different from the others, and gives a new experience when players play on it.

“What if your therapist was wrong and the gang-stalkers in your head are real? Hardest Target presupposes that you are being tracked by armed individuals looking to do you harm. The objective is simple: wipe out the other team’s Target and protect your own by any means necessary. Lay it all on the line, and you’ll walk away with 2X GTA$ and RP for playing any time through November 16.”
