GTA Online Weekly Update May 16, 2024
Get the Übermacht Cypher sports car for free by completing this week's Salvage Yard Robbery, and grab a bunch of GTA$ bonuses while you're at it.
Where last week’s GTA Online Weekly Update sailed out to sea, this week’s focus is on air vehicles, and diving from them. Polish off your pilot’s licence for this week’s set of bonuses, and grab yourself a Hangar property for cheap while you’re at it.
Not interested in flying your way to some free cash? Steal the Übermacht Cypher (Sports) during this week’s Salvage Yard Robbery and you can keep it!
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 Karin Sultan 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.

For this week only, you can claim the Übermacht Cypher (Sports) on completion of The Gangbanger Robbery.
