A tropical island sounds like paradise, until you’re caught in an intense crossfire. Return to the scene of one of the most ambitious GTA Online adventures in Assault on Cayo Perico — a new Adversary Mode that pits teams of Attackers and Defenders against each other on the distant island’s gorgeous shores.

One team is tasked with attacking the island in hopes of hacking a crucial computer terminal. Meanwhile, the opposing squad must defend El Rubio’s island paradise until time runs out, wiping out any interlopers that breach the island’s defenses. Attackers will need to navigate the island and dodge the defending team’s suppressive fire, starting from the airfield, maneuvering through the docks, destroying radar arrays en route, and culminating in a tense standoff inside the fortified compound.

This week, both sides of this action-packed conflict will earn 2X GTA$ and RP for taking part in this mode’s explosive inauguration. Launch Assault on Cayo Perico by visiting the blip near Los Santos International Airport or via Quick Join on your iFruit. This week also marks the return of several classic combative Adversary Modes to GTA Online, including Occupy, Extraction, and Trading Places (Remix).

The addition of San Andreas Mercenaries to GTA Online has guns-for-hire carrying out counter operations against the Merryweather private army across the state. For those yet to enlist in this action-packed new update, answer the call from Charlie Reed to join up with the Los Santos Angels.

The Operations Terminal upgrade for the Mammoth Avenger is your inroad to an assortment of explosive new missions in San Andreas Mercenaries, including Charlie's ambitious Project Overthrow efforts and an audacious series of LSA Operations.

Team up with some of Los Santos’ most daring guns-for-hire and take back the city in GTA Online: San Andreas Mercenaries. Lead the fight against Merryweather Security’s forces as one of the Los Santos Angels and engage in explosive guerilla operations while conducting high-stakes, high-flying raids all across the state.

PROJECT OVERTHROW

Charlie Reed’s got an impressive résumé — beyond his work as an aircraft mechanic in the Hangar, he’s an ex-military operator with significant experience assisting in various Heists around Los Santos over the years. He’s also been working on a plan called Project Overthrow — a multipronged attack on Merryweather Security to knock them well and truly off their perch.

The way Charlie sees it, Merryweather have amassed enough defense contracts, illegal R&D, and good old-fashioned criminal rackets that ripping them off in a series of high-flying schemes is a win-win scenario for him and your smuggling operation. Project Overthrow features six new missions for 1–4 players that will put your mercenary skills to the ultimate test: conducting reconnaissance, recovering valuable equipment, performing audacious rescues, and fighting your way through the teeth of Merryweather’s well-oiled war machine.

Project Overthrow is launched from the new Operations Terminal upgrade for the Mammoth Avenger, available at Warstock Cache & Carry.

LOS SANTOS ANGELS

Also initiated from the new Operations Terminal, the Los Santos Angels can take on three private contracts in daring LSA Operations. Each of these presents an opportunity to acquire an Outfit for first-time completion and rotate through optional bonus objectives with each replay for an additional pay bump.

These include jumping out of a chopper and onto the deck of an aircraft carrier under cover of darkness, calling in a bombing run, and using an EMP blast to knock out a government installation. LSA Operations can also be launched by calling Charlie directly from your iFruit after your Operations Terminal has been installed.

FREE TRADE SHIPPING CO.

It’s a new day for smuggling operations, as Hangar properties are being upgraded to host a suite of new abilities and features. A fully equipped Hangar can now store and customize the Avenger, as well as upgrade your personal arsenal with an Mk II Weapons Workshop.

Charlie’s ex-military associates have also taken to hanging out around the Hangar: Ask dishonorably discharged helicopter pilot and recent Los Santos Angels recruit Rooster McCraw to source cargo for a small fee.

You’ll also find free Snacks and Weapon pickups around the property to help you prepare for any fight ahead, and those looking to sharpen their skills at Flight School will find a convenient access point added inside the Hangar.

Four new Source Missions have been added to the Free Trade Shipping Co. on the Hangar laptop alongside three new Sell Missions — all for smugglers who prefer the driver’s seat to the cockpit. Perform deep sea dives, oust private militaries, and more in this expansive update to the Air Freight Cargo business by choosing the Land option when launching.

NEW AVENGER UPGRADES

The utility of the Mammoth Avenger has expanded in a big way. Owning a Facility (or Hangar) is no longer required to own and operate an Avenger, which can be called out to your location via the Services section of the Interaction Menu. Those who do own a Hangar with a Workshop will be able to customize their sky fortress with new mil-spec upgrades, including front-facing machine guns and missiles, as well as a Stealth Module or a Missile Lock-On Jammer that can be activated while on autopilot.

The Operations Terminal is an interior upgrade that unlocks access to Project Overthrow and the LSA Operations detailed above. This can be purchased directly from Charlie in the Hangar, or when customizing your Avenger in the Charlie Upgrades menu. If you’re down to join the fight but don’t yet own a Hangar, the Operations Terminal can be purchased when upgrading the Avenger on the Warstock Cache & Carry website.

Another exciting new upgrade available for the Avenger is the Mammoth Avenger Thruster. If you’ve left your mobile sky base on Autopilot high above the city but you’re stranded on the ground, simply call the Mammoth Avenger Thruster directly to your location using the Interaction Menu. When nearing the rear cargo bay of the Avenger, hit D-pad right to dock inside.
