Grand Theft Auto V (GTA V) released back in 2013, almost 10 years ago. Since then, the game has been released on multiple consoles and even enjoyed a remaster. While fans still love the game, it seems that they’ve been longing for something new. That opportunity is now right around the corner...

The Contract is an all-new narrative created for Grand Theft Auto Online, which is a place where players can create their own character and do tasks and challenges to earn money and increase their rank. 

GTA V can now be considered an old game, perhaps, and with no new additions into the main game, fans must continue with the content they have been given in GTA Online.

The main title follows three characters; Michael, Franklin, and Trevor, who all cross paths and decide to commit some serious offences together. 

The game is beloved for its action, violence, huge map and interesting narrative, which sees each character get some time in the spotlight, as well as getting caught in some odd (and illegal) situations.

Now, after almost a decade without any new story-based content in relation to the main game, Online players will be able to step into the shoes of Franklin once more.

The Contract focuses on Franklin, his questionable friend Lamar Davis, and Chop the Rottweiler as they set up his ‘fixer’ agency, and land their first big client, the one and only Dr. Dre. 

There are two things Franklin needs to get his agency off the ground, which are a partner he can trust, and a high-profile client. While Lamar may seem somewhat unhinged at times, he is a longtime trusted ally who will make the connection. 

Franklin and his friends work to hunt down the legendary producer’s missing phone, which holds unreleased music on it, in this exciting new update. 

The story will also feature all-new tracks from the iconic Dr. Dre, as well as a brilliant line-up of artists and a first-of-their-kind update to the radio dial, which includes a new radio station.

This includes a whole host of new and unreleased exclusive tracks from Dr. Dre, and a heavy-hitting line-up of artists, plus additional opportunities for agency work which includes choice hits for players willing to get their hands dirty, as well as new weapons, vehicles, and so much more. 

The Contract will release on December 15th, 2021, and will be free for all GTA Online players.
