GTA Online is still going strong and getting new updates, the latest of which is GTA Online: San Andreas Mercenaries, which releases on June 13.
The free expansion has players teaming up to fight against a private military faction, Merryweather Security. Ace pilot Charlie Reed recruits players to become a member of the Los Santos Angels. Players will participate in missions involving “stealing sensitive data from server farms, conducting raids, and dropping explosive payloads on high-value targets across the state.”
Players will also notice “spontaneous opportunities” to grab cash and commodities from moving targets through the new content in the expansion. The San Andreas Mercenaries update also adds more random events, introduces the Tactical SMG weapon, and new daily time trials. Rockstar also teased that community-requested improvements are coming, too, including:
- When calling Mors Mutual Insurance, you’ll be able to claim all destroyed vehicles at once.
- An alternate sprint control option (hold to sprint) will be added to the Settings Menu.
- Custom description tags for garages to help quickly locate your favorite rides.
- The Willard Eudora and Albany Classique Broadway will become eligible for Taxi Work when using Taxi Liveries.
- Updates to the Creator to incorporate additional props and weather options, including snow.
San Andreas Mercenaries launches June 13 for PS5, PS5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. Rockstar said fans should stay tuned for more information on gameplay, vehicles, activities, special events, and more.
GTA Online remains very popular, which has led some to wonder what will happen to the game when GTA 6 is released. The game is said to be coming as soon as 2024.
