Ill-Gotten Gains Part 2 Arrives July 10
Last month Rockstar Games expanded the world of Grand Theft Auto V with Ill-Gotten Gains, a new DLC pack that adds crazy-expensive items to the game world like solid gold helicopters and extremely fancy cars, as well as the ability to drink champagne and smoke a cigar in first person (finally!). The update was to take place in two parts. The first hit back on June 10, and people have been just waiting for the rest since then.
Today Rockstar announced the exact day in which the second half of the DLC will drop: July 10. Yes, the same day “Minions” opens in theaters. You’re gonna have to divide your time. Not only will the new update provide even more outrageous cars, weapons and gadgets to players, it will bring the radio station “The Lab” to console owners. The station had previously been a PC exclusive.
The developer also announced an Independence Day Special for the game, featuring items such as the Firework Rocket Launcher on sale for the 4th of July weekend only.
Rockstar held a special event during the launch of the first half of “Ill-Gotten Gains” in which players could rack up an abnormally large amount of in-game cash, thereby making it possible to purchase some of the new gear and equipment. There is no word if the company plans a similar event for the second half.
