Just like last week, Rockstar is adding a brand-new vehicle to GTA Online as part of this week’s in-game event. This time around, it’s the new Maibatsu Manchez Scout bike, ideally suited to off-road riding and jumps. However, it’s just the headline feature of an event packed with bonus rewards and discounts.
GTA Online Weekly Event & New Scout Bike
“Rugged, powerful, and fast enough to peel your eyelids back,” writes Rockstar; “the Maibatsu Manchez Scout was built to manoeuvre the muddiest trails on Earth, but it’s also a damn fine answer to a question as old as time: ‘How’re you gonna jump that?’ Whether you’re using it as the Maibatsu Corporation designed or to tempt gravity and fate, you can purchase this motorcycle from Warstock now.”
Alongside the new GTA Online scout bike, this week’s event features a range of bonus rewards. Players can get double rewards on all Survivals, for example, while collecting Treasure Chests on Cayo Perico will earn players a bonus GTA$100,000 at the end of the event. Of course, there’s also plenty of discounts available for players to spend those rewards on too. This week, those discounts focus on the game’s submersibles and helicopters.
The Sea Sparrow, Pegassi Reaper, and Nagasaki Buzzard Attack Chopper are currently 40% off. Meanwhile, the relatively new Kraken Avisa submersible is available for 25% off. In fact, the Remote-Guided Missiles, Sonar Station, and Weapon Workshop upgrades for the new Kosatka Submarine are also available at a 25% discount. Finally, the standard Sparrow Helicopter is 25% off and the Invetero Coquette D10 is 30% off.
The Prime Gaming benefits for this week’s event are the same as last week’s. If you’ve connected your Social Club account to your Prime Gaming account, you’ll get the usual GTA$200,000. Plus, you’ll get the Kosatka submarine’s Sonar Station for free. (Provided you didn’t get it free last week.) You can also take advantage of a special 35% discount off both the Kurtz 31 Patrol Boat and Shitzu Longfin.
