As Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) approaches its 10th anniversary, Rockstar Games is celebrating this milestone with a special event in GTA Online. While fans have been eagerly awaiting news about the highly anticipated GTA VI, Rockstar has prepared a series of rewards and bonuses for players to enjoy during this anniversary event.
Free Outfits Inspired by the Protagonists
From September 14 to September 27, players can log in to GTA Online and unlock three outfits inspired by the main characters of GTA V: Michael, Franklin, and Trevor. These outfits, named The Retired Criminal, The Homie, and The Groupie, respectively, capture the distinct styles of each character. For instance, The Retired Criminal’s outfit includes a suit jacket and pants reminiscent of Michael’s classic mobster look. These outfits will be added to your inventory automatically during the event.
Exclusive Weapon Finishes
In addition to the outfits, players can also obtain special weapon finishes inspired by the GTA V characters:
Employee of the Month finish for the Micro SMG :This finish channels Trevor’s energy.
Suede Bucks finish for the Carbine Rifle: Inspired by Franklin’s street style
Uncle T finish for the RPG Launcher: This finish reflects Michael’s excessive nature.
To equip these custom finishes, visit any Ammu-Nation store and customize the designated weapons. The new skins will be visible in the upgrade options.
More Anniversary Bonuses
Besides the free anniversary items, Rockstar is offering GTA$ and RP bonuses on select contact missions from Lamar and Trevor. Players can earn up to quadruple the usual rewards during this special event. The Bravado Hotring Hellfire sports car is also available for purchase for a limited time as part of the anniversary specials.
Bonus Snacks, Armor, and Ammo
On top of all the other rewards, the anniversary update provides free snacks, armor, and ammo to all players who log in during the eligibility period. Look out for unlock notifications that will appear on your screen after signing in. These supplies will be useful for your next missions or adventures in GTA Online.
While this 10th anniversary event is exciting for fans of GTA V and GTA Online, many were hoping for news about GTA VI. Rumors and leaks have fueled speculation about the next installment in the series, but Rockstar has remained tight-lipped about it.
The GTA VI Speculation
Take-Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick mentioned that the company expects a major game release in fiscal year 2025, which could generate around $8 billion in sales. Many fans believe this could be GTA VI, as it is a title capable of generating such substantial revenue.
Recently, an alleged audio recording of Strauss Zelnick surfaced, in which he appeared to leak the reveal and launch dates of GTA VI. According to the recording, GTA VI will be revealed on October 23, 2023, with a scheduled launch in October 2024. However, the authenticity of this recording has been questioned, with some suggesting it might be AI-generated or manipulated.

Rockstar’s approach to announcing new games has typically involved minimal involvement from the Take-Two CEO, and Zelnick often lets the development teams speak for themselves. Therefore, the recording seemed unusual in that context.
While fans continue to hope for news about GTA VI, Rockstar’s 10th-anniversary celebration for GTA V offers a glimpse into the world of Los Santos once again, with special rewards and bonuses to keep players engaged until the next installment in the series is officially announced.
As GTA V turns 10, players can reminisce about their adventures in the sprawling open world and enjoy the special items and bonuses provided by Rockstar. Until the next big announcement, the streets of Los Santos remain as enticing as ever for both newcomers and long-time players of the franchise.
