GTA 5 free downloads quietly announced for you to claim in October

It’s October, which means Halloween is merely a few weeks away.

I hate to say it, but I really don’t care for Halloween. I’m sorry but it’s the truth.

It’s only in recent years that the seasonal celebration has risen in popularity in the UK to match that of our US counterparts.

If you do relish the chance to dip your toes into all things spooky though, then GTA V’s online component GTA Online has you covered with a new wave of Halloween offerings for 2024.

In case you missed it, GTA Online players will soon have the opportunity to visit North Yankton for the first time ever.

North Yankton is, of course, the setting of GTA V’s prologue - and a locale that players cannot revisit.

You’ll only be able to visit the graveyard specifically as part of a new Community Challenge but hey, it’s something.

That offering is set to be joined by a number of downloadable freebies.

You may as well watch the GTA VI trailer one more time. It’s that good.

Unfortunately, these freebies are only obtainable if you have a GTA+ membership.

If you tick that box, you’ll be able to nab a free HVY Nightshark weaponised off-roader decked out in “the chilling Skulls livery”.

This can be obtained at The Vinewood Car Club showroom.

As for apparel, you can also nab the Demon Biker Jacket, Blushed Cracked Puppet Mask, and Pale Stitched Mask.

These will remain available until 6 November.

That’s not all. Dark Teal Pearl Chameleon Paint and Oil Slick Pearl Chameleon Wheel Paint are two new free options.

You can also earn quadruple GTA$ and RP in Halloween Adversary Modes.

As for the GTA+ exclusive discounts, nab 40% off at Bunker Properties, 50% off the Albany Brigham, Albany Lurcher, and LCC Sanctus, 50% off Body Armor, and 20% off at the Gun Van.

All in all, there’s plenty to keep GTA+ subscribers busy this month.
