James is a gaming writer from London who has spent thousands of hours exploring titles from every genre. Though he has a particular affinity for multiplayer titles like World of Warcraft, Destiny 2 and League of Legends, he has also put thousands of hours into single-player experiences, from deep RPGs to epic PC strategies. When he's not playing or writing, he can usually be found supporting his beloved Brentford FC.

The gaming world is understandably a little bit aflame right now, with millions of players on tenterhooks for the next tidbit of Grand Theft Auto VI information. The wall of secrecy around the game has driven up that hype even further, and with the third trailer looming, hype really is at an all-time high right now.

As such, you might be looking to get in the mood by returning to the most recent (and I use that word loosely) game in the series. Happily, there's still plenty going on in GTA Online to keep things interesting, and if you're already a GTA+ member, then there's a huge list of ongoing rewards you can get your hands on.

Over on the official Rockstar website, the developer broke down the latest set of free offerings and benefits for GTA+ members in GTA V. Chief among them this time around is a free-to-claim Grotti Veleno GT wrapped in the Attack livery, which you can get a week before anyone else by picking it up from The Vinewood Car Club showroom through August 12.

GTA+ members can also still grab the new Art Studio expansion for their Mansion property, at a not-insignificant GTA$1,000,000 discount, available from the Prix Luxury Real Estate in-game website. That will also allow you to take part in the new Kortz Center Heist, which by all accounts is one of the best Rockstar has produced to date.

To go for the aforementioned heist, you'll also need a domicile from the Prix Luxury Real Estate range. Happily, members also get a preferred rate on those, with GTA$2,000,000 off any Mansion property through August 5.

If you're looking to customize your new car (or other eligible vehicles), you can also get Black Oil Spill Prismatic Chameleon Paint and Black Oil Spill Prismatic Chameleon Wheel Paint for free, at all auto shops and mod bays. Lastly, the Orange Manor Bomber Zipped jacket has also been added to members' wardrobes for free, so make sure to check for that next time you're getting dressed.

The developer is seemingly going to continue supporting this current iteration of GTA Online right up until the November launch off GTA VI. What comes after that, though, is a lot more murky, with Rockstar really yet to state how they plan to manage the transition across to the new game, in terms of the multiplayer modes available to players.
