Initially released on PS3 and Xbox 360, GTA 5 has spanned three different console generations and more than 10 years of content. Even though the franchise was already well-known, this particular game brought a change that none of the previous ones had: a fully online mode. This mode functioned independently with its own content, allowing players to enjoy the same freedom as the single-player mode but with friends.

This online mode became so popular that it catapulted the series to astronomical sales and unprecedented popularity. Periodically, the game adds new content, and in the new missions known as Bottom Dollar Bounties, players find a reference to the game’s first trailer from 2013.

In these missions, a character from the original trailer reappears as an NPC that you can capture thanks to your new job.

With the Bottom Dollar Bounties Missions, You Can Become a Bounty Hunter

In this new GTA Online mission, players can open their own bounty-hunting agency, where they can try to find various targets and earn money in the process. The missions will include all kinds of fugitives, including the NPC seen in the game’s first trailer. Depending on the fugitive in question, the reward will be lower or higher. The idea is to hunt these fugitives as a team with your friends.

Bottom Dollar Bounties will also reward the player for completing the objective exactly as described. This implies that you can capture some fugitives, either dead or alive, and your reward will increase if you successfully complete this objective.

This particular mission allows us to capture three common targets and one most-wanted target, the latter being available only once per day. In this update there are new special police vehicles also included.

The majority of fans are eagerly anticipating additional information about GTA 6, which has only released a trailer suggesting a 2025 release date. There were many rumors about a possible delay of the game to 2026, but the studio denied this outright. It appears that the studio is fully committed to developing this game and is progressing at a more than reasonable pace, so the fans should relax.

I'm a big fan of movies and videogames in general. I really love Pokémon and Godzilla. One of my favorite games is The Last of Us, Part II. A compelling and well-written story is always welcome.
