Where is the location of the treasure in GTA Online?

GTA Online is filled with many activities where players can spend hundreds of hours. Based in the glitzy city of Los Santos, this online title is highly dynamic with the number of exclusive updates it has received so far, including the addition of the Treasure Hunt by Rockstar.

Treasure Hunt was added to GTA Online as part of The Doomsday Heist update, and has only become available since the enhanced version of the game. The entire hunt served as a teaser for the forthcoming release of Red Dead Redemption 2, another one of Rockstar’s action-adventure development.

It is essential to find the treasure chest before exiting GTA Online.

Players can expect some kind of treasure hunt in the upcoming GTA sequel as well.
