GTA Online Weekly Update: January 8-14

gta online hsw car

The first GTA Online weekly update for 2026 is arriving for players. After taking time off for the holidays, Rockstar Games brings forth some new offerings for all of us to enjoy. The big highlight from this refresh is a free business property offering. You read that right! If you play anytime this week, you get the Hands-On Car Wash completely free. So if you are in need of doing the Money Fronts content, it comes at no charge. Or if you are like me and started fresh in the game, having an extra way to make a profit wouldn’t hurt. Plus, if you want to do some missions, Operation Paper Trail is boosted in GTA$ and RP. Along with various other modes for players to enjoy.

With discounts, the Counterfeit Cash properties are on sale for a big 40% off. So, if you needed that extra Biker business, you can pick it up without breaking the bank. Additionally, various unique vehicles are seeing 30% discounts to their original price this week. Such as the Maverick helicopter and HVY Chernobog. You may have been earning and saving in GTA Online over the holidays. However, there are some good purchases to be made to kick off 2026 in the game. Everything available for this new GTA Online weekly update is detailed for you below.

Furthermore, some of the discounted vehicles are enjoyable to drive in the game. Plus, if you don’t have the Counterfeit Cash business, it’s very cheap. With the 2x boost to its profits, you will earn plenty of cash to spend in Los Santos. Just remember that this weekly refresh, like the others, only lasts for the week. Now shake off the holiday rust and see what needs to be done in GTA Online to leave your footprint in the city.
