The game has received a selection of temporary changes and updates as is the norm for the vast amount of the year, although this week continues the recent spooktacular theme introduced last week. This includes limited discounts, bonuses to specific mission types, and free vehicles for you to fight over.

New additions
This week, there are two major new additions to GTA Online. The first, is a new car! The Rhinehart is a bulky new family car that may not be the fastest on the block, nor the nicest looking, nor the easiest to control, but it does sell for $1,598,000! Why? Who knows!
There's also 200 Jack O' Lanterns that have been added to the map. It's your job, on this spooky season, to hunt them all down before the Halloween event ends in early November. If you find 10, the Pumpkin mask is yours! If you spend the time to get all 200, then the Pumpkin Tee will land in your hands glorious and orange. We've put together a guide for you too, so you can easily find all the Halloween Jack o' Lantern locations.
In addition, we're getting some returning game modes from previous Halloween events. This includes the Alien Survival and Slasher Adversary game mode, so jump in and have a blast while you can!
There are also seven new community jobs this week. Nice!
