The Southern San Andreas economy is in crisis. Gas prices have spiked to their highest levels in decades, retail supply chains are in turmoil, and to top it off a ferocious heatwave is gripping the state.

Executives, Bikers, Nightclub Owners, and Gunrunners are making the most of the chaotic conditions. Meanwhile, the sudden spike at the pumps has caught the attention of the IAA, who suspect the corrupt Duggan petrochemical family are rigging the system in their favor, and they’re going to need you to help them put the pieces together.

The Criminal Enterprises is a sweeping update bringing new missions and upgrades to GTA Online including significant expansions to business prospects for Criminal Careers, plus new, elaborate Contact Missions with players operating as a sworn-in agent for the IAA and much more starting July 26.

The Criminal Enterprises also delivers highly requested experience improvements while giving players more choice in how they climb their way up the criminal ranks. Players will earn increased payouts across a range of gameplay, enjoy experience improvements and more — with new modes, vehicles, collectibles, and special events dropping all summer long, including new showroom floors where players can test drive or simply purchase a range of new vehicles on the spot.

Expand Your Businesses
Following the launch of GTAV on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, and the standalone version of GTA Online earlier this year, The Criminal Enterprises addition to GTA Online grows and evolves the world across all platforms. Whether you’ve entered GTA Online via the Career Builder on the latest generation consoles or you’re a seasoned kingpin, The Criminal Enterprises offers an assortment of exciting new updates for intrepid entrepreneurs of all kinds. And no matter which Criminal Career path you’ve chosen, all Business activities — including Sell Missions — will now be available to play in private (Invite Only, Crew, and Friends) sessions as part of The Criminal Enterprises.

Executives
Those who own an Executive Office will notice new staff manager Lupe, ready and able to help source additional Special Cargo for your empty shelves. A new side gig will also open up for Executives, where a shipment of Special Cargo will arrive daily outside your Warehouse, packed and ready for delivery to the docks. Plus, two new sources of Special Cargo will also be added to the mix of Source Missions, increasing the variety of missions available to white-collar criminals statewide.

Bikers
Clubhouses with the Custom Bike Shop are getting an on-the-house upgrade, where MC Presidents will be able to modify clients’ bikes to specifications and deliver them to customers for GTA$ and RP. Bikers will also be able to bolster their street cred and bottom lines by completing two new Clubhouse Contracts, posted on the meeting room wall at the Clubhouse. And you might notice patrons haunting the bar in your Clubhouse — a Bar Resupply mission will keep the kegs tapped and the clientele happy while earning a little extra income for your MC.

Gunrunners
Ammu-Nation has heard that you’re all about supplying quality goods at a fair price, and they want in. Make a daily delivery to a designated Ammu-Nation store for an additional source of revenue. When stocking your Bunker, you’ll come across two new Resupply Missions, so be sure to rob these new targets for all they’re worth. And players will also be able to launch Resupply Missions from the road or increase their research progress by sourcing data from a well-armed mark.

Nightclub Owners
Nightclub owners can now contact Yohan to take on missions to source Goods for their Nightclub Warehouse or call Tony to launch Club Management missions. Two new Club Management missions have been added to the roster, giving you new ways to promote your above-board operations. Meanwhile, inside your club, you’ll be able to maintain the vibes by ejecting troublemakers and chaperoning passed-out VIPs to safe locations off-site.

Go Undercover in Operation Paper Trail
The profits from soaring gas prices all seem to be flowing one way into the pockets of the most notorious oil-rich dynasty in the Los Santos area. The IAA smells a criminal conspiracy — Agent ULP will be in touch with the new Operation Paper Trail, commissioning 1–4 players as sworn-in agents to investigate the local petrochemical magnates, the Duggans, to see if they’re the invisible hand behind spiraling oil prices.

Get Behind the Wheel with New Vehicles
There will be plenty of new ways to cut a route between points A and B in The Criminal Enterprises, with new vehicles arriving throughout the summer and beyond. Two new Imani Tech-eligible vehicles will be available to take advantage of special upgrades from F. Clinton and Partner’s expert hacker, including remote control, missile lock-on jammer, and more.

There will also be new Tuners vehicles, and Benny’s Original Motor Works is expanding its capabilities to work on additional vehicles. Meanwhile, Hao is keen to get to work on an existing classic, with a brand-new ride coming later this summer for those on the latest generation of consoles. Plus, an assortment of new and deeper customization options on several OG vehicles, some of which you may already own, that will give them a new look, and a new lease on life.

Increased Payouts and Other Improvements
In addition to all the above, be on the lookout for a comprehensive list of new gameplay and experience improvements coming to GTA Online, including a reduction in the effectiveness of the Oppressor Mk II’s homing missiles and countermeasures, an easier way to replenish Health during firefights with more convenient access to snacks and armor, and much more.

The Criminal Enterprises will also introduce several changes to the economy, including permanent boosts to Race and Adversary Mode payouts, increased payouts for original Heists and The Doomsday Heist, bigger paydays for Bodyguards, Associates, and MC Members, and more.

Look for more details on all the new gameplay and balancing changes at the Rockstar Newswire when The Criminal Enterprises launches on July 26 across PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC.

That orange tint m16 is new. Well they didn't post other LeAKeD stuff either, like 2 extra apartments to buy, but that's more or less confirmed.

Nightclub owners can now contact Yohan to take on missions to source Goods for their Nightclub Warehouse

I hope this person more competent than the thug at the Auto Shop who seems to damage everything he delivers.

EDIT: Realized Lupe will do nothing but source and not act.

I hope these two are more competent than the thug at the Auto Shop who seems to damage everything he delivers.

Yeah it's gonna be a straight up copy paste with extra new glitches on top.

There was more than i was expecting, stuff that Bikers got is probably most surprising one as its like combination of Auto Shop and Nightclub. Also it seems like Cayo Perico is either a part of free roam now or at least a race track as you can see a small clip on the trailer with cars driving near main dock.

The new game modes (and possibly those paper trail contact missions) will be on cayo.

Yeah i was leaning more towards new races seeing all cars were the same or close to same on the trailer. Also hell yeah for new imani, tuner and bennys cars, another thing i wasn't really expecting at all.

Gotta admit that updates since Cayo Perico has been pretty good in terms of content and realism, i hope there will never be any kind of Mk2/Alien gun stuff in the game anymore.

LMAO Operation Paper Trail, more like Operation Mockingbird. I can't believe Rockstar has become that much of simp they are literally taking government talking points and blaming oil companies for rising gas prices meanwhile ignoring the fact that American leadership closed oil pipelines long before the Ukrainian conflict. The real Operation Paper Trail is finding how all those dead people voted in 2020 lol.

Rockstar used to be good at staying moderate/apolitical but now the mask is slipping and this isn't the first time either. In their recent, Agency update you have to assassinate internet "trolls" who are "abusing" the stock market for their own benefit, a direct jab at the internet community who banded together to make sure multi-billion dollar hedge funds don't profit off hoping Gamestop does poorly. I don't think you need a bigger indicator than that to know that Rockstar likes their corporation more than they do the gaming community.

Edit: thanks for all the awards, it's nice to know that most people actually know about the things I'm mentioning and after reading some of these "counter-points" I can see now why they are ignorant of the things I'm referring to lmao.

Well we still need oppressor mk3 with submersible mode and dual orbital cannons.

Please god no! I really hope Volition makes a Online for Saints Row reboot, maybe then we could see GTAO becoming a pure crime sim where immature people who likes to have "fun" goes to SRO.

It would be win-win for everyone(except for Rockstar as they would lose some money in the long run).
