GTA Online Update Schedule: Creator, Heists, More!

Yes, heists are coming BUT it won't be until 2014 BUT on the good side the content creator tools for races and deathmatches will be coming this week! Rockstar Games has announced details for this stuff and single player DLC coming in 2014 too! More details below...


Deathmatch & Race Creators Beta
This week, Rockstar will give you the first chance to build your own content in GTA Online (and play content others have made) with the release of the Deathmatch & Race Creators Beta. With access to some of the same tools as our own game design and development team, you can craft your own custom blood-soaked gunfights, high-octane street races, screaming jet dogfights and more. You’ll also be able to publish your original Deathmatches and Races via the Rockstar Games Social Club for the whole community to discover, download, play, rate and share. Players can create and customize Jobs for the following modes:

• Deathmatch
• Team Deathmatch
• Race
• GTA Race
• Rally Race

Rockstar is planning on regularly reviewing some of the best community-created content to recognize and distinguish them as Rockstar Verified Jobs, shared out to the entire GTA Online community. The Deathmatch and Race Creators will come to you via a free update, and you’ll need to have a Social Club account that is linked to your Xbox Live Gamertag or PlayStation Network ID to use them. The Creators are in Beta so wants help from the fans to iron out any flaws and bugs via the official GTA Online email address. Expect the Creators Beta to become available as soon as tomorrow, December 10th!


Capture
Also in December, Rockstar will introduce possibly their favorite competitive team mode: Capture. A proper GTA twist on classic capture the flag, Capture mode brings territory infiltration and a new form of team-versus-team treachery into GTA Online. Up to four squads battle to steal contraband, trucks, buses or whatever from opponents' bases using high-speed vehicles, explosive weaponry and cunning teamwork. Craft, cooperation and team tactics are key. The free Capture update will bring a host of new jobs to GTA Online, accessible via the open world and also directly through your phone. Capture is broken down into four variations - ‘Raid’, ‘Contend’, ‘Hold’ and ‘GTA’ – full details on each of these next week.


Also expect big things in both Grand Theft Auto Online and Grand Theft Auto V next year including:

GTA Online Heists
Rockstar knows many of you in the GTA Online community are super excited for the debut of co-operative Heists. Heists are currently in development and they are working very hard to get them as polished and as fun as they can be. Stay tuned for much more detail in the New Year.

GTAV Story Mode Updates
For those ready to jump back into the story of Grand Theft Auto V, Rockstar has big plans for substantial additions in 2014 continuing Michael, Franklin and Trevor's action, mayhem and unexpected adventures in Southern San Andreas.
