GTA Online ‘Beach Bum’ Update Available Now!
Briefly: Now that all of Grand Theft Auto: Online‘s launch issues have been solved, Rockstar is finally able to focus on new content.
The game’s first free content pack has just released for Xbox 360 and PS3, and it features plenty of new vehicles, weapons, jobs, and more!
Here’s what’s included in the ‘Beach Bum’ update, straight from the official Rockstar blog:
NEW VEHICLES, WEAPONS & MORE
Take on new Beach Bum Races with the BF Bifta dune buggy, the rugged Canis Kalahari off-road truck or the Bravado Paradise beach camper van. For aquatic-based endeavors, the classic Speeder speedboat is also now available. All four vehicles can also be accessed in Story Mode and are available at no in-game cost. To access them in GTA Online, just visit the southernsanandreassuperautos.com in-game website (or docktease.com for the Speeder).
Also available in both Story Mode and Online (and at no additional in-game cost) are the new SNS Pistol & Broken Bottle – a pair of close range weapons perfect for any beach blanket brouhaha.
This update also features a wide array of new apparel – everything from casual canvas hats to tank tops, t-shirts, board shorts and bikinis in a wide range of styles and colors… plus new hairstyle and tattoo customization options.
