Rockstar Games just released its "GTA 5" an update and it is aptly called the "Festive Surprise 2016." Apparently, this is part of the holiday offering for all avid gamers of the popular car racing game.

The "GTA 5" holiday update was first announced last week so players are really anticipating it. This event offers many features including Christmas outfits, new cars and other holiday goodies. Below are list of things to have after the installation of the "GTA 5" festive update.

Snow

Also, players will get to see snow falling over Los Santos for some white Christmas experience while playing "GTA 5." Snowy day will not be complete without a snowball fight so players should get ready when they are suddenly attacked with those icy balls.

New Vehicles

The Import/Export DLC introduced many new vehicles and the "GTA 5" festive update will add more cars to the list. The new rides include Progen ItaliGTB and Custom, Comet Retro Custom, Dewbauchee Specter and Custom, FCR Biker and Custom variant, Truffade Nero and Nero Custom.

Gamespot reported that "GTA 5" players also have a chance to double their GTA$ and RP through the newly added Turf Wars Adversary mode. If gamers want to earn triple RP, they can simply participate in the premium stunt race called Plummet.

New Weapons

New set of weaponry is also coming to the game and they will be permanently available at the Ammu-Nation. Players can avail a new Homing Missile Launcher, Firework Launcher and Proximity Mines.

Free Gifts

Moreover, Rockstar Games will hand out a variety of free gifts for "GTA 5" players. These goodies include festive pajamas, Santa outfit, holiday sweaters and festive hats. The game developer is also giving away unicorn masks and sticky bombs as a treat but the colorful bodysuits are for sale.

Finally, according to Express UK, there are also in-game deals to enjoy and the offer will run until Jan. 2, 2017. A 25 percent discount is given to purchase of luxury cars like the Nagasaki Shotaro, Enus Super Diamond and Neons while weapons with marked down prices include the compact grenade launcher, compact rifle and sweeper shotgun.
