In the immortal words of The Staple Singers, let’s do it again.

We’re ready to take you all on once again in some Party Mode rounds of The Ballad of Gay Tony multiplayer on Xbox LIVE this Thursday, January 21st from 4:00 to 7:00 PM Eastern Time – our first such event for the new year.  Hope you’ve all been brushing up…

If you haven’t had a chance to take part in one of our Social Club multiplayer events yet, you can check out a recap of the last one here to see how it goes down.  As always, those who can’t (or are afraid to!) jump on to Xbox LIVE to compete can watch the streaming action as it happens and join in on our official live chat.

As a quick refresher, you will be able to find members of the Rockstar team using the in-game cellphone and selecting Party Mode > Ranked > Team Deathmatch (note that this is the in-game Party Mode, not the Xbox LIVE Party Mode).

SPECTATE AND CHAT
Stuck at work or can't reach an Xbox during our play time? No worries.  Come follow all the action at the Social Club Multiplayer Event page with a live streaming broadcast of the entire event.  We'll also have the chatbox back up and running on game day for those that want to discuss the action as it unfolds.

Just like last time, here are specific directions you can follow to get online, grab a partner, and jump into the fray!

HOW TO FIND US
Grab a multiplayer partner and start up Ranked Team Deathmatch via Party Mode using the in-game cellphone.  We're playing doubles again so make sure your team size is two.  By starting up Team Deathmatch from Party Mode, you will be automatically placed in special lobbies together with us and other event participants.  More info on using Party Mode is listed below.

NEED A PARTNER?
Hit up the chatbox during the event or just post your Gamertag in the Comments section below.

ABOUT PARTY MODE
Party Mode is an easy way to get your group together and find matches.  Here are the 3 quick and easy steps to get you up and running:

1. To get started, fire up the in-game mobile phone by pressing "Up" on the D-pad.  Select Multiplayer > Party Mode.
2. From here, open up your phone again and select the Friends option to invite your friends (you need at least one more friend to play with Rockstar). 
3. Once your team is ready to roll, open up the in-game phone again and select Ranked > Team Deathmatch for this event.

Again, please be sure that you enter the lobby in a group of two if you plan to get matched up against us and other players for the event.
