GTA Online Summer update delayed?

While no official release date has been announced by Rockstar themselves, leaks have started circulating about its imminent arrival.

Tez2 reported that the GTA Online membership rewards would run out on the 18th of July this month, making many believe that the big GTA Online summer update would launch the day after.

GTA Online Summer update: latest news

More leaks are starting to surface surrounding the GTA Online Summer update, with one GTAForums user ” @alloc8or” stating the following could be arriving with the new update:

“- 26 new vehicle slots

– 2 new rifles; one is a “Tactictal Rifle”, unsure about the other one (codenamed “PRCSRIFLE”)

– as certain people have been hinting at: yes, there will be new skydiving activities which are also connected to a new “skydive” collectible

– some other certain people have also been hinting at an activity outside of San Andreas – I’ll let the reader figure this one out

– small fun fact: R* was particularly lazy this time choosing a codename for this DLC, they literally called it “DLC 1 2022”

Of course, this is all speculation at this early stage, however, if true, the latest GTA Online Summer update could come with a whole host of cool and exciting first for the game.
