"Grand Theft Auto V Online" continues to be updated as Rockstar Games launches a new mode, premium race, cars, and some Thanksgiving bonuses.

According to Gamespot, the new "GTA Online" Adversary mode is called "Kill Quota," which supports a total of 16 players across 2-4 teams. The host gets to choose from the four loadouts to be used, in which six weapons are each contained. The teams must aim for a target kill count before they move on to the next weapon, which is less powerful. If a team makes it through all the six weapons in the loadout, they win in the match. Another way to win is to have the highest kill count within the time limit.

To give you a list of what the loadouts are:

  • Loadout 1: RPG > Minigun > Special Carbine > Heavy Revolver > Sawed-Off Shotgun > Machete
  • Loadout 2: Railgun > Combat MG > Musket > Heavy Sniper > Pump Shotgun > Knuckle Duster
  • Loadout 3: Sweeper Shotgun > Compact Rifle > Mini SMG > Compact Launcher > Double Barreled Shotgun > Pool Cue
  • Loadout 4: RPG > Railgun > Heavy Shotgun > Advanced Rifle > AP Pistol > Knife

The "Kill Quota" mode will be played in seven new maps, although they haven't detailed out yet. In addition to that, the update that Rockstar will be releasing will double GTA$ and RP for the new adversary mode until Nov. 28.

Another update also includes the Bravado Youga Classic, a new vehicle that has the 60s vibe of the Mystery Machine from the "Scooby Doo" franchise.

Now, bringing up the Thanksgiving bonuses along with the update, in addition to the doubling of the of GTA$ and RP in "Kill Quota," Rockstar will be doing the same with other modes like "Every Bullet Counts," "Running Back," and "Inch by Inch" -- but only limited on Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 24).

Here are also the other items where players can take advantage to get a 25 percent off deal on until Nov. 28:

  • Vehicles: Buckingham SuperVolito and SuperVolito Carbon
  • Vehicle Customizations: Rims, Turbo, Liveries, Resprays, Engine Mods
  • Clothing: Biker Clothing (not including Deadline Outfits) and Tattoos
  • Weapons: Compact Rifle, Carbine Rifle, Assault Rifle

Last but not the least, "GTA Online's" newest premium race is High Flier, which looks similar to race track from one of its previous updates "Cunning Stunts." Participating in the race allows everyone to earn triple the RP, while those who reach top three gets to earn "substantial" GTA$ prizes. This race is only within limited time, being available only until Nov. 28.

This major update for "GTA Online" is considered the second one Rockstar has released this month following the "Deadline" expansion, which had the "Tron"-like racing mode.

A previous report also covered the Biker DLC, which had the Clubhouse feature, the Slipstream mode, and new vehicles such as the Nightblade, the Chimera, and the Rat Bike.
