GTA Onlinefans are set to have their hearts broken with what could be the last final major update of its kind later this year.
WhenGrand Theft Auto Vwas first released in 2013 for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, it was instantly on track to be one of the most successful video games of all time, which is whyRockstar Gameshas ported it onto every console generation since.

However, when the first iteration ofGTA Onlinealso arrived in 2013, Rockstar Games had a major cash cow on its hands with fans eager to acquire all the in-game microtransactions making the publisher obscene amounts of money.

The money thatGTA Onlinecontinues to bring in is a huge reason why Rockstar Games has supported it with a constant flurry of major updates, unlike itsRed Dead Onlinecounterpart. One of the most funGTA Onlineupdates that fans appreciate is during Christmas time.
The typical sunny vistas of Los Santos replaced with snow blizzards are always a joy, especially when players replace gunfights with light-hearted snowball fights. Yet, it might be time for players to prepare to throw their last snowball inGTA Onlinethis Christmas.

“This year will be the last Christmas inGTA Online,” suggested billsyliamgta with the next instalment of theGrand Theft Autoseries set to be released late next year.
That being said, even ifGTA VIis released next year (and isn’t delayed), I think it would be too premature for Rockstar Games to endGTA Onlinecontent support anytime soon. Even in late 2025, I’m sure there will be plenty of gamers still playing the current version of the multiplayer game, even alongsideGTA VI.
However, it wouldn’t surprise me if the current iteration ofGTA Onlinegets its final Christmas update next year. Only time will tell.
