Grand Theft Auto (GTA) Online's new weekly update has added a novel Adversary Mode to the game called Assault on Cayo Perico. This Adversary Mode takes place on the Cayo Perico island and can be played between four and 30 players. The participants are grouped into two teams, wherein the Attackers attempt to raid the island, and the Defenders try to hold them back until the time runs out.

Rockstar Games has also attached double bonuses to Assault on Cayo Perico for this week, so players have a great opportunity to have fun and make money in GTA Online.

New Adversary Mode, Assault on Cayo Perico, added to GTA Online with latest weekly update

The Assault on Cayo Perico Adversary Mode was confirmed by Rockstar Games shortly after the release of the San Andreas Mercenaries update. However, it is only now that it has been introduced to the game via the latest GTA Online weekly update.

As mentioned, up to 30 players can participate in this Adversary Mode with a minimum of four players. They are equally divided into two teams, Attackers and Defenders, which have their separate objectives.

The Attackers must infiltrate the Cayo Perico island and try to hack radars marked A and B on the map. Concurrently, the Defenders will try to disrupt their operations and keep their opponents at bay until the timer runs out.

Each time a player gets neutralized, they will respawn after a few seconds. They can also make use of any vehicle present inside the mission zone to their advantage.

Assault on Cayo Perico can get pretty intense, given the number of participants on each side. Hence, players are advised to stock up on snacks to replenish their health before heading into the match.
