GTA Online Valentine's Day Massacre Special Content Goes Live

Would you be our Valentine, GTA Online?

Valentine's Day might not be everyone's favorite holiday, but Rockstar does want to encourage you to celebrate it via GTA Online and its latest content update, "Valentine's Day Massacre Special". Grab your buddies and cruise around town like an old-school, Prohibition Era gangster.

Within this free update, players will be granted a large variety of items for both GTA V's Story Mode and GTA Online. Many of them will take us back to an early 1920's style that would certainly make Al Capone one happy camper. Featuring a new Tommy gun-like weapon called the "Gusenberg Sweeper", an armored vehicle called the "Albany Roosevelt" for unique drive-by shooting opportunities, tons of new get-ups options like two piece suits, flapper dresses, and masquerade masks, and finally 10 all new missions to take on, there's quite a lot to grab here! Here are more detailed descriptions of the content you'll get in this update:

Valentine's Day Massacre Special Pack:   NEW WEAPON: GUSENBERG SWEEPER Nothing says “I love you” quite like the warm wooden grip and cold steel barrel of a Gusenberg Sweeper machine gun. Get it from any Ammu-Nation location in GTA Online (in Story Mode, the Sweeper is automatically deposited into each character's weapon inventory with two full clips and additional ammo can be purchased at Ammu-Nation).   NEW VEHICLE: ALBANY ROOSEVELT Paint the town red in the classically-inspired Albany Roosevelt. This armored 1920s limousine is perfect for gangsters and their molls. To properly run amok with the new Roosevelt, get in the driver’s seat and let your friends or Crewmates hang off the side, firing and taking out your rivals as you pass them by. The Roosevelt can be accessed from any garage property in Story Mode and is available in GTA Online from the legendarymotorsport.net in-game website.   NEW ATTIRE Dress to the nines in a host of new double breasted suits and 1920s flapper dresses, or bare it all in sexy undergarments while going incognito with a selection of new masquerade masks. There are also new novelty t-shirts, hats and more available in stores throughout Los Santos, plus a new Flapper Bob hairstyle exclusively for the ladies.   10 NEW JOBS The Valentine’s Day Massacre also includes 10 new Jobs scattered like the remnants of a broken heart throughout the world of GTA Online, including Deathmatches, a new Parachute Jump and new land, sea and cycling Races.

While all these items are fantastic, they won't be available forever on GTA Online. For a limited time only (starting today) players will be able to keep what they acquire from the "Valentine's Day Massacre Special" permanently in their inventories. Rockstar hasn't stated how long the special will be available for exactly, so do nab it up if you plan on playing in the future. They have, however, mentioned that more information regarding future updates will be announced soon, including: the "Dangerous Business Pack", expanded Creator Tool options, the much anticipated Online Heists, and much, much more! Stay tuned!
