Rockstar Games has launched the GTA Online Christmas 2025 update, bringing back popular festive content while extending the event to an unusually long three-week celebration. Running until January 7, 2026, this holiday event includes returning outfits, special encounters, login rewards, money bonuses, and seasonal activities. While there are no brand-new rewards or drip-feed vehicles this year, the event still offers plenty for both new and returning players. With so many festive activities available, GTA 5 modded accounts help players jump straight into heists, outfits, and money bonuses.

Snowy Weather and Delayed Login Rewards
Unlike previous years, snow does not arrive in Los Santos immediately. The snowy weather effect officially begins on December 23, rather than earlier in the month. Along with the snow, players will also start receiving festive login rewards on that date. These login rewards include:

- Season’s Greetings sweater

- New Year Fireworks Bodysuit

- Snowball Launcher

- Candy Cane melee weapon

- Firework Launcher with 20 rockets

- Snacks, armor, and ammo refills

All rewards are automatically credited upon logging in between December 23 and January 7.

Mansion Discounts and Free Vehicle
The pre-luxury mansion discount remains active throughout the event, offering a $2 million price reduction until January 7, 2026. This extended window gives players plenty of time to purchase a mansion at a reduced cost.

In addition, Rockstar is offering a free SuperVolito Carbon helicopter during the festive season, making it an easy pickup for players who may have missed it in previous updates.

Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid Bonuses
One of the biggest money opportunities this Christmas comes from the Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid, which requires no business ownership and is available to all players. Bonuses include:

- $500,000 one-time bonus for completing the raid as a leader

- Another $500,000 bonus for completing it as an associate or bodyguard

- $300,000 bonus for completing the raid during the final event week (December 30 to January 7)

In total, players can earn up to $1.3 million from this heist during the Christmas event.

Weekly Challenges Across Three Weeks
Each week of the event features a different weekly challenge, offering $300,000 per completion:

- Week 1: Sell $100,000 worth of product from any business

- Week 2 (Dec 23–29): Win four Adversary Mode matches

- Week 3 (Dec 30–Jan 7): Complete the Cluckin’ Bell Farm Raid as a leader

Completing all three challenges earns $900,000 total.

Double Money on Weed Businesses
The Weed Farm once again receives a Double Money bonus for the entire three-week event. Players can make sell missions easier by using the mansion production speed boost and selling at around one to one-and-a-half bars of stock, which usually guarantees a single delivery vehicle.

Happy Holidays Hauler Event
The Happy Holidays Hauler, inspired by the Coca-Cola holiday truck, returns to Los Santos. When active, it drops festive rewards such as:

- Sprunk or eCola Festive Sweaters (50/50 chance)

- Cash, snacks, and ammo

To spawn the truck:

- The session must include at least two players

- The session must be at least 60 minutes old

The truck spawns at Legion Square, follows a set route, and drops gifts every 90 seconds. If a sweater is missed, another truck can spawn after the cooldown.

Weazel Plaza Shootout (Die Hard Event)
The classic Weazel Plaza shootout returns, featuring a rooftop battle inspired by Die Hard. Defeating the main enemy rewards the WM 29 Pistol, a rare handgun inspired by the HK P7.

Players can trigger this event by joining any session during the Christmas period and watching for police activity, helicopters, and red smoke at Weazel Plaza.

Yeti Hunt and Yeti Outfit
The Yeti Hunt is back, offering one of the most iconic outfits in GTA Online. To unlock it, players must collect five clues in Raton Canyon, then return at night to defeat the Yeti. Rewards include:

- Yeti Outfit

- $50,000 cash bonus

The Yeti is highly durable, so high-damage weapons are recommended.

The Gooch Outfit
The Gooch, Rockstar’s parody of the Grinch, also returns. To trigger the encounter:

- At least two players must be in the session

- The session must be 48 minutes old or older

The Gooch performs a hit-and-run attack, stealing cash before fleeing. Defeating him unlocks the Gooch Outfit, plus bonus cash and snacks.

Snowman Outfit and Bonuses
The final festive outfit is unlocked by destroying 25 snowmen scattered across Los Santos. Rewards include:

- $5,000 per snowman

- $125,000 bonus for destroying all 25

- Snowman Outfit

Snowmen can be destroyed using vehicles, explosives, or by hitting them three times with snowballs.

Conclusion
The GTA Online Christmas 2025 event may not introduce brand-new rewards, but it delivers a generous mix of returning content, extended bonuses, and festive activities. With three weeks to participate, players have plenty of time to earn exclusive outfits, take advantage of major cash bonuses, and enjoy the snowy transformation of Los Santos. Whether returning after a break or joining for the first time, this holiday event offers a solid reason to jump back into GTA Online before the new year begins.
