GTA Online: Power Play and Grotti X80 Proto Now Available

Posted on June 21 2016, 1:21pm | Author: R* Q | Filed Under: Social Club, Games

In Power Play, today's new update to Grand Theft Auto Online on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, power-ups change the rules of urban warfare - giving players the chance to boost themselves and their allies with special abilities, or even screw with their opponents in pursuit of ultimate victory.
 
The effects of these six power-ups are temporary and will need to be timed wisely. Power-ups include:

Beasted: Transform into the Beast and use special powers like invisibility, super jump, and super strength. 
Zoned: Slow down time for all players, giving snipers a tactical advantage over exposed enemies. 
Doped: Dull your enemy's senses with a trippy green haze; they’ll never see that flank coming...
Raging: Unleash a rampage with your entire team by inflicting increased damage while taking reduced damage. 
Flipped: Scramble your opponents by picking up Flipped, temporarily inverting all enemy camera controls and mixing team chat to truly get in their heads.
Dark: Take your team off the grid for well-timed sneak attacks.

Each player can use one power up at a time, but layers of strategy exist through stacking power-ups with other teammates, or triggering power-ups to counteract enemy team advantages. Play this new Adversary Mode now via the Jobs menu, or grab your best gunmen and battlefield tacticians to maximize 2X GTA$ and RP in the Power Play Playlist all week long.

You can also bookmark the three Power Play Jobs here:
Power Play I (Aircraft Carrier) | Power Play II (Vespucci Beach) | Power Play III (Bolingbroke Prison)
 
NEW SUPERCAR: THE GROTTI X80 PROTO
 
Today's update also features the addition of the blazing-fast Grotti X80 Proto to the Supercar roster at Legendary Motorsport. The space-age, low-profile body harnesses a beastly engine, making for a finely tuned machine ready for dominance – especially handy when needing to make Special Cargo Deliveries in a hurry. Escaping wanted levels has never looked so good.

 

DOUBLE GTA$ AND RP POWER PLAY PLAYLIST, UNLOCKABLE GROTTI TEE AND MORE

Celebrate Power Play Week and grab double GTA$ and RP in the all-new Power Play Playlist, available to access directly from the GTAV loading screen (and the Playlists section of the GTA Online pause menu) through June 27. And whether you’re a proud new X80 owner or an envious onlooker licking your chops, the new Grotti in-game tee is unlocked for all players this week, simply by logging into GTA Online.

Also, enjoy steep discounts on an assortment of air and sea vehicles; seafaring adventurers can get half off the luxurious Lampadati Toro, while ambitious Executives (and Other Criminals) can secure air superiority to support all their operational needs, with half off all three variations of the Swift and the Buckingham Valkyrie, which is available to purchase this week without Heists prerequisites. Finally, protect your Special Cargo from airborne assailants with 33% off the Homing Launcher.

    Were glad to see that everyone is enjoying the brand new Power Play mode, and the new Grotti X80 Proto!

    For those asking about why this and other recent update are not available on the Xbox 360 and PS3, as weve previously mentioned here at the Newswire (http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/52429/asked-answered-the-rockstar-editor-gta-online-updates) there isnt enough memory available to add to the game on these older systems, and we cannot make any more meaningful content updates on those platforms without putting the entire game at risk.

    Please make the next GTA an authentic, raw, realistic storyline and make it gangster. Im sick of all this ridiculous off the wall attempts at humor, corny characters, and almost like they're trying to just be random instead of follow a good and dramatic storyline. A little bit of humor is ok, but I want most of it to be a serious and accurate portrayal of gangsters' life on the streets and rise through the ranks and becoming a somebody in the life. Whether it be mobsters in Liberty City, Vice City, Las Venturas, San Fierro, gang bangers in Los Santos, whatever. I want real, I want gritty, low down, grimey criminals on some tough streets. Forget all this far fetched crap too where they are flying fighter jets and all this other unrealistic stolen valor tall tales. Please just make it about some street thugs climbing the ladder of the criminal underworld, and make it raw instead of slap stick jackassery. You could even give the characters different paths and choices to make that will define them and have with different outcomes to the story. The potential is there to come up with the most epic, gangster storyline yet. Just focus more an authenticity and less on trying to be hilarious and a bunch outrageous missions that would never happen. Make the characters serious and the villains ruthless vatos instead of silly goofballs. Still love GTA, but think its time to step it up.

        Will there be anymore updates for the Xbox 360 and can you please add some more heists and try to make it so that only accomplished and true masterminds can play them. I'm wondering is the Xbox 360 going to be made redundant. Should I get an Xbox 1 or give up I love that we can make race tracks for others to play.

          @LustyGazangsta Just get an Xbox One bro. Rockstar isn't going to update on Last Gen because it'll severe the consoles more with the memory.

                              Rockstar would you add right hand drive cars in gta 5 online and story mode its just an idea but could you try it for the next update just for a change cause its boring just having left hand drive cars hope you can try it

                                @Dylan_coulter05 How is it boring? It makes absolutely no difference at all. Plus it's set in America why would they have RHD cars?

                                @Dylan_coulter05 How would this make driving cars less "boring"?
                              • big_1989_bhon July 2 2016, 10:57amReplyFlag
                                @Dylan_coulter05 Nissan skylines are imported from a RHD country because they can't sell them in America (they are illegal, there's some ways around it) but in general most cars are available in LHD and RHD, so why would you have a RHD car in a LHD country if you didn't have to? My point is it wouldn't affect the game play one bit so how is it boring? BTW I'm British too. And I doubt you'd ask for left hand drive cars in a game set in London.
