GTA Online Update Adds 2 Limited-Time Community Challenges

GTA Online's latest community challenge puts the focus on Big Soda for several rewards.

By Ricky Frech

With good reason, the talk of the video game world this week has been the impending announcement of Grand Theft Auto 6. However, that announcement isn't coming until early December, so fans still have about a month until they learn more about what's coming next. And even if it's announced for a 2024 release date, developer Rockstar Games will need to continue dropping new content for GTA Online. To that end, the team announced a new set of community challenges for GTA Online today. These include two new events players across the globe will need to collectively complete if everyone wants to earn the rewards.

The first event is focused squarely on Sprunk and eCola. Players need to drink a total of 100 million cans of the two sodas to earn several cosmetic rewards. They'll have until November 29 to finish and the rewards will hit accounts by the end of the year. Meanwhile, Simeon is hosting an Employee of the Month Challenge where players are trying to earn a total of $15 billion in Export Requests by November 15 to get a special livery. Of course, several other rewards coming with the update, including a few nice deals on new cars at the Premium Deluxe Motorsport Showroom.

You'll find the full update patch notes below. GTA Online is available now on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC platforms.

GTA Online November 9 Community Challenge Patch Notes

The entire city's juiced with excitement, bolstered by the caffeine rush of a new Community Challenge issued by the titans of the carbonated beverage industry. There's also a surge in demand for Export Requests courtesy of Simeon Yetarian, boosted bottom lines on an assortment of modes and activities, and so much more.

Sprunk & eCola Challenge

After pitting drinkers of Sprunk and eCola against each other last year in a fierce battle for brand supremacy, Big Soda is now flipping the script and aiming to mobilize their combined forces to preach the health-boosting effects of these sugary, caffeine-laden concoctions.

Sprunk and eCola fanatics must now unite to guzzle a combined total of 100 million cans of Sprunk and eCola by November 29, and in doing so unlock custom Sprunk and eCola vanity license plates, the dashing new Sprunk x eCola Bodysuit, and a fierce Sprunk x eCola branded livery for the Mammoth F-160 Raiju Plane (25% off this week). If successful, the Raiju livery, the Bodysuit, and the vanity plates will be unlocked for the entire community later this year.

Grab a Sprunk or eCola from your owned properties, Simeon's Premium Deluxe Motorsport showroom, or vending machines around Southern San Andreas to get in on the action. Consume directly from vending machines, via the Interaction Menu, or when enjoying Snacks via the Weapon Wheel and do your part!
