GTA Online Weekly Update August 22, 2024

Defend or attack an aircraft carrier in this week's GTA Online Weekly Update and the newly launched Assault on ATT-16 adversary mode.

GTA Online Weekly Update August 22, 2024

This week’s GTA Online Weekly Update launches with an explosive new adversary mode called Assault on ATT-16. This massive multi-stage mode pits two teams across five different stages, requiring mastery of land, sea, and air, and will challenge players across a range of different tasks. The new mode launched with its very own trailer that makes it look like War Thunder decided to crash the party.

GTA Online Weekly Update free spin

Login to GTA Online this week to get a free spin on the Lucky Wheel at The Diamond Casino & Resort, and be in for a chance to win this week’s grand prize: a Dinka Jester Classic (Sports).

You get one free spin on the wheel every 24 hours, and have a 5% chance of winning the podium vehicle per spin. Of course, you’ll first need to sign up to the casino with a one-off membership fee of $500 if you haven’t already.

If you don’t get the vehicle, you are still guaranteed to win:

  • A mystery prize (5%)
  • A Vehicle Discount (5%)
  • Clothing (20%)
  • Poker Chips (20%)
  • Cash (20%)
  • RP (25%)

The amounts you win vary, but it’s always worth using your free spin, so make sure to login every day.

GTA Online Weekly Update bonus GTA$ and RP activities

With the launch of a brand new adversary mode, it’s no surprise that the majority of this week’s bonuses are based around Assault on ATT-16. But if that doesn’t float your boat, there’s still plenty of way to earn GTA$ and RP this week:

  • Double GTA$, and RP on Assault on ATT-16
  • Double GTA$ and RP on LSA Operations missions
  • Double GTA$ and RP on Business Battles

Additionally, any Source Air Freight Cargo requests will yield two crates over the standard one for this week only. Complete the new Assault on ATT-16 twice this week to earn 100,000 GTA$.

Finally, place in the top 2 places for four days in a row in the LS Car Meet Series this week and you’ll walk away with a free Dewbauchee Vagner (Super).
