New Features Added in The Los Santos Drug Wars DLC

Dive into the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC for GTA V! Explore the new Freakshop, Acid business, Fooligan Jobs, 8 new vehicles, and quality-of-life updates like hiding contacts and map blip options.

Alright, so the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC dropped, and it brought a bunch of cool new stuff to GTA Online. Think of it as a fresh coat of paint and some handy upgrades that make the game smoother. Let's break down what's new so you don't miss out on anything.

All New GTA Online Features

The Freakshop: Your New Hangout

First off, you've got a brand new social space called The Freakshop. You'll unlock this bad boy after you finish up the 'First Dose' Storyline missions. It's not just a place to chill; it's also where your new Acid business operates, and it's even where the Series A Heist Finale kicks off. Pretty central to the new content, so make sure you get it unlocked!

Start Your Own Acid Business

Speaking of business, The Freakshop is home to a new production venture: the Acid business. You can get this up and running to start churning out Acid. It's a solid way to bring in some extra cash, so if you're looking to boost your income, this is the place to start.

Fooligan Jobs: Quick Missions for Cash

Once you've wrapped up the 'First Dose' storyline, you can hit up Dax for some work. Just contact him and select 'Request Work' to kick off a Fooligan Job. There are five of these missions, and they'll be picked at random. Completing one nets you $50,000, and for the first week, that amount was doubled to $100,000! Keep in mind there's a 48-minute cooldown between jobs, so while it's good for a quick buck, it's not the absolute best money-maker out there.

Fresh Rides: 8 New Vehicles (and More Coming!)

Get ready to expand your garage, because the Drug Wars DLC launched with 8 new vehicles. You can check out the full list of these beauties right here: All New Cars in The Los Santos Drug Wars DLC. And that's not all – Rockstar plans to drip-feed another 8 cars over the coming weeks and months. So, plenty of new wheels to look forward to!

Tidy Up Your Phone: Hide Contacts

This is one of those quality-of-life changes that makes a huge difference. You can now hide contacts on your phone! Just open up your Interaction Menu, head to 'Inventory,' and then 'Phone Contact Favorites.' This is a lifesaver when you're trying to quickly call someone important, like Lester, without having to scroll through a massive list.

Map Blip Options Are Back!

Remember when you could clean up your map? Well, good news – Map Blip Options are back! Head into the Interaction Menu, then 'Map Blip Options,' and you can remove all those annoying markers you don't care about. Makes it way easier to spot the things you actually want to find.

Request Bicycles from Your Mechanic

After a whopping 9 years, you can finally request Bicycles from your Mechanic! If you're looking for a more laid-back way to cruise around Los Santos, or just want to switch up your transport, this is a welcome addition.

Faster Vehicle Delivery

Buying a new car or motorcycle just got a little less tedious. Purchased vehicles will now be delivered to your garage much faster. This was a much-needed fix, as waiting around forever to customize your new ride was a drag.

Business and Mission Updates

Business Changes

• Hangar Sell Missions payouts have been tripled! That's a massive boost to your income if you're into that business.
• Selling Vehicle Warehouse Stock in Public Sessions now gives you a Higher Demand Bonus, so it pays to be brave and do it with others around.

Mission Changes

• You can now take on the Agatha's Casino Story Missions.
• The Toreador is no longer usable in certain missions. You'll need to find an alternative, like the Kuruma (Armored), so keep that in mind.
• A heads-up for the Cayo Perico Heist: guards can now find dead enemies. You'll need to be extra stealthy and careful when taking out guards to avoid detection.
