Rockstar Games has released a major new update for Grand Theft Auto 5 Enhanced Edition on PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S. The update is also available for the Legacy Edition of GTA 5 available on PC, PS4 and Xbox One. Bringing the title up to version 1.71, the update brings in a host of content in the form of Money Fronts, including entirely new gameplay options through the new Money Laundering Operations.
With the update, players can now buy three new businesses that give them money laundering options across Los Santos. New money laundering work and missions are also available through either a computer or by using the phone to call a new contact, Raf, in Freemode. The three money laundering businesses are Hands On Car Wash, Higgins Helitours, and Smoke on the Water.
Along with offering up new money laundering work, these businesses also confer other bonuses to players. For example, Hands On Car Wash gives players access to a safe that provides passive income over time. This passive income can increase by the player picking up other businesses. Personal vehicles can also be washed at the business for free.
The update also brings with it seven new vehicles, as well as a host of returning vehicles that can be picked up and upgraded. Aside from this, the update also includes a host of bug fixes. For more details about the update, check out the complete patch notes below.
