GTA Online NEW Christmas DLC Release Time & NEW Update Info (Festive Surprise 2025)
The GTA online festive surprise DLC, aka the Christmas update, has kind of been delayed. For the first time in years, it’s not dropping on a Thursday, but on a Tuesday, December 23rd, so next week. It’s kind of weird cuz they did drop a part of the festive surprise update today, but the other part will release next Tuesday. That’s because for the first time ever, backtoback weekly updates fall on a holiday, Christmas Day, and New Year’s Day. So, this weekly update actually lasts 3 weeks, and I will quickly cover it in today’s video, as well as other small bits of new information like the exact release time, snow mentions, and more. So, the Gucc and Yeti event have returned today without the snow, which is kind of lame in my opinion. Plus, all Christmas clothing and festive decoration inside our apartments and other own properties. This is actually the best property. It not only has a Christmas tree with presents, but it also has Christmas lights and other decoration on the ceiling. The Eola Happy Holidays Holler and Weasel Plaza shootout also returned without snow yet. So that’s a bummer. What about the release time? It will have a global release time, meaning that it will be released for everyone at the exact same time. Here’s a helpful map that I made with the update release time for each time zone in the world. So let’s say if you live in New York, which is Eastern Standard Time, it will release at 5:00 a.m. for you. And in Europe, for example, it will release at 11:00 a.m. It may be 5 to 10 minutes earlier or later, but it will release together with the weekly update on Tuesday, December 23rd. The snow will be active till December 29th. Now, if you missed it, some great news for PlayStation players that play GTA Online. From now till December 24, you don’t need PS+ to play GTA Online. So, you can play GTA online for free, and that way you can experience Christmas in GTA 5 as well as mentions, which is the next topic. I was wondering how the three mansions look like when they are covered in snow. You have already been looking at mansions in snow gameplay for the past few minutes. So, this is what they look like. They look beautiful. None of the water is frozen, which would be a cool feature, but everything else is covered in snow. At night, they will look even better cuz all the lights will be on around the pool, the interior, driveway, and even more places. To receive the holiday gifts, play GTA online anywhere from December 23 to January 7. We will get the following items. The season’s greeting sweaters, new year firework bodysuit, snowball launcher, the candy cane, firework launcher with 20 firework rockets, and refill of snacks, armor, and ammo. Now, the Christmas weapons. Actually, one Christmas weapon, which is the snowball launcher, and the other weapons are existing weapons with a Christmas livery, but it’s still really cool. So, for this pistol, the surface carbon rifle, and the heavy sniper. When the update is out, I will explain how to unlock them. GTA Plus members can already get the Senna skull sweater and track pants. This is what they look like. Lastly, I will quickly go over this 3 weeks weekly update. The FMJ MK5 has now been released for everyone as well as the new Proen Louisa. The clocking bell farm rate offers bonuses up to $1.3 million and it’s your last chance to claim luxury VIP gold tier rewards. The returning festive game modes are snowball fights and end to arch remakes. The weekly challenges are as follows. Complete each week and receive $300,000 as well as to Krampus sweater. December 18 through 22, sell $100,000 across all businesses. December 23 through 29, win four adversary modes. And December 30 through January 7, complete the clocking bell farm rate finale as the leader. Double money on community series four times for GTA Plus members. Green stuff sell missions including biker businesses and nightclub goods and featured series overtime rumble. On December 23rd, we should see the snowman event. They didn’t mention it yet, but it only makes sense to release snowmen when there’s actually snow in the game. I already posted two videos on how to unlock the Yeti and Gucci outfit, so check them out if you haven’t already, and I will catch youall in the next one. Bye-bye.
