Free flare guns are available for the last week of the winter event as part of the GTA Online weekly update for January 5 along with improvements to freemode events and exclusive cargo.
We have all the information about the GTA Online weekly update for the week of January 5–12 before Rockstar releases the patch notes later. After the GTA V new year event, it is the first full week of 2023. It is also the last week of the Christmas events, so this is your last chance to play the open-world criminal game's snowy Los Santos and encounter its holiday killers. In addition, you'll receive a free flare gun simply for signing up!
Although there aren't any new cars on the market right now, you can still visit a luxury auto dealership to get some expensive wheels. While Simeon's Auto Shop is selling the HVY Nightshark, Mammoth Patriot Mil-Spec, Bravado Greenwood, Declasse Granger 3600LX, and Obey Omnis e-GT, Luxury Autos is selling the Enus Deity and Enus Jubilee.
You have two options if you want to try your luck at winning a free car. The GTA prize car is the Pfister Growler, a two-door sports car with a list price of $1,627,000, which you may win by winning four straight Street Race Series contests. If lady luck is on your side, head to the Diamond Casino and spin the wheel of fortune for a chance to win the massive six-person armored HVY Insurgent, the GTA Online podium car. Normally, this gigantic machine goes for $897,750 (or $675,000 until the Humane Labs raid is finished).
Freemode events give triple GTA$ and reputation point payouts, while security contracts, "First Dose" missions, and Issi Classic races offer double payouts on both. The warehouse staff at Lupe has a 25% speed boost when sourcing Special Cargo, so now is a wonderful time to take advantage of those potential deals.
Here are the discounts for the week of January 5-12:
