GTA Online is about to get even bigger, with Rockstar announcing a new Summer update is coming to Los Santos!
New co-op missions, races vehicles and much more await you in the epic overhaul.
This big summer update will surely tide us over to GTA 6, which is likely a little way off yet with GTA 5 confirmed to release once again on Xbox Series and PS5.
Here's everything we know about the so-called "Summer Update".

GTA Online Summer Update Arrives In Los Santos
Make the most of the Southern San Andreas summer with a host of new activities hitting GTA Online next week.
From tense new co-op missions launched from your Super Yacht to the track-based thrills of new Open Wheel Races, to a fleet of new vehicles to acquire and much more, Summer in Los Santos has something for everyone.
I'M ON A BOAT: New missions await Galaxy Super Yacht owners
Galaxy Super Yacht owners will be able to engage in an all-new series of missions, either alone or with up to three shipmates.
Everything from deep-sea diving to high-speed hi-jinks on the high seas - there's action for everyone.
Between deliveries and sales, the upwardly mobile can take to the streets in new Business Battles in some surprising locations for serious rewards.
The Diamond Casino & Resort will be open for business as a range of Adversary Modes will take place on the premises.
Meanwhile, auto websites will be flooded with more than a dozen new vehicles to purchase, including rides for Benny to customize, off-roaders, tunable sports cars and a pair of new Open Wheel beauties.
Push them to the limits in a series of new Open Wheel Races – or design your own street circuit with the new Open Wheel Race Creator.
Plus, a number of general improvements and fixes – as well as our ongoing series of weekly special events and bonuses to take part in over the coming months – once the Los Santos Summer Special hits GTA Online on August 11th.

As the game's subreddit suggests, the existing content could be repurposed, while many would rather have re-balanced content as opposed to new pursuits.
In fact, speaking of the game's subreddit, here's a look at the new vehicles available and content to enjoy. Big thanks to u/Dan6erbond.
