After celebrating Día de Muertos last week, Rockstar Games is fully embracing the Halloween spirit in Grand Theft Auto Online.
Spooky events, challenges and rewards promise players another week of otherworldly experiences as they navigate through alien abductions, UFO crashes, and zombie-infested survival modes.
As part of the month-long update, the streets of Los Santos continue to become a hotbed for unusual activity. This time around, extraterrestrial sightings are on the rise, with reports of UFOs and mysterious abductions. Unsuspecting citizens find themselves whisked away to a dark, foreboding basement beneath Fort Zancudo.
In this nerve-wracking scenario, players must work together with up to three other abductees to uncover clues, restore power, and orchestrate a daring escape. Those who successfully break free from their alien captors will be rewarded with a unique non-lethal weapon called The Shocker, perfect for incapacitating targets without causing fatal harm.
Merryweather Security has managed to secure a crashed UFO and has transported it to Fort Zancudo for testing, presenting a golden opportunity for players to engage in a high-stakes mission. The objective is twofold: first, eliminate Merryweather's agents, and then compete against fellow players to salvage valuable alien technology. Successfully delivering these otherworldly components to Omega's shack will result in huge rewards and, of course, bragging rights.
If you don't know where Fort Zancudo is, or how to get in, we have the guide for that.
For those seeking intense combat experiences, the Alien Survival Series offers the chance to step into the shoes of extraterrestrial fighters. In this mode, players will need to fend off waves of NOOSE operatives, FIB agents, and Marines. As if that isn't enough of an incentive, participants will earn double GTA$ and RP for their efforts until November 6.
The Halloween festivities extend beyond alien encounters. The Judgement Day adversary mode pits Sanctus Riders against Hunted players in a thrilling chase across the city. This unique twist on the classic cat-and-mouse game allows fallen team members to be resurrected when an opponent is eliminated, ensuring non-stop action. Both sides will enjoy double rewards, with GTA+ members receiving an even more lucrative quadruple payout.
