Grand Theft Auto Online Gets Festive With Latest Update

'Tis the season for playing with your friends online and engaging in joyous activities!

Rockstar Games has announced its latest update for Grand Theft Auto Online, which introduces a number of new activities that tie in with its Festive Surprise, along with a new vehicle and Adversary Mode.

There are a number of holiday-themed unlocked that are available beginning today and running through January 5th, including some lively new outfits that will get you in a Christmas-y mood. All players that log in before December 24th will be able to score some cool Krampus masks gifts, free of charge.

As for the car that is available this week, say hello to the Ubermacht Sentinel Classic, which you can pick up at Southern San Andreas Super Autos for a pretty decent price. You can check it out in the pic below.

Next up, if you want to really be competitive this holiday season, you'll want to check out the new Occupy mode. It's a 16-player Capture the Flag style game, where at least one member of the team has to hold a zone long enough for it to activate their team color of choice. The more zones a team holds, the faster they'll earn points. And the first one to reach a potential target score will win the round, with vehicles and weapons as rewards – along with that precious Double GTA$ and RP.
