As the festive season trundles along, games are celebrating Christmas and the holidays with events and giveaways.

It’s the most wonderful time of the year to be playing, and Rockstar Games are handing out rewards for their dedicated players of GTA Online.

The latest trailer for GTA Online featured a little GTA 6 easter egg to get us in the mood

However, you don’t have long left to grab these, so if you’ve not played over the holidays, now is the time to log in and grab some freebies.

Simply log in any time between 19 December and 1 January, and you’ll receive a stash of festive gifts from Rockstar Games.

It’s a bumper crop of goodies including - Festive Penguin Onesie, Gold Reindeer Pendant, Gold Star Fitted Jacket and Pants, Firework Launcher with 20 Rockets, Snowball Launcher, Full Snacks, Armour, and Ammo.

That’s not all, though.

Until 1 January you’ll receive double rewards from Garment Factory’s passive income, Pizza Deliveries, and Dispatch Work from Vincent.

You don’t have long to collect these brilliant GTA V rewards and enjoy them while the season is in full swing.

This is just the latest giveaway of treats in GTA Online, as each month there tends to be a little gift from the developers.

Whether you’re a veteran player or a newbie who only started playing this Christmas, you can grab these treats by simply logging in and playing for a short time.

Everything will be delivered to your in-game stash, so you don’t have to do anything.

It’s worth using this time to get in as much ‘work’ as possible while double rewards are active, as you can build up a hefty bank balance without the need for heists.

Plus, you can look festive while you do it, with your fetching penguin onesie.

Then, get ready to ring in the new year, and the year of GTA VI, with your shining gold suit.
