GTA Online Weekly Update April 23–29: 10x Money on Smoke on the Water, 4x on Hunting Pack, and the 420 Event Wraps Up

The second and final week of LD Organics Presents: The 420 Event is live in GTA Online as of this morning, and it's bringing the biggest bonuses of the two-week run. If you've been sleeping on the first week's rewards, now is your last chance to stack up — here's everything live from April 23 through April 29.

The Headliner: 10x on Smoke on the Water

The standout bonus this week is massive: Smoke on the Water, the legal work accessible through Money Fronts, is paying out 10x GTA$ and RP for successful deliveries. This is the kind of bonus that makes passive business income genuinely worthwhile for the week — if you own the business and have been upgrading your stock, this is the time to run it.

For context on scale: a typical run at standard rates might net you $15,000 to $20,000. At 10x, those same deliveries are paying out $150,000 to $200,000 per run. If you're willing to put in an hour of business work this week, this is one of the better GTA Online money-making windows in recent memory.

The GTA 6 Shadow Looming

With GTA 6 confirmed for November 19, 2026, every week of GTA Online content now exists in the shadow of its own successor. The 420 Event is a reminder that GTA Online in 2026 is still remarkably active — data that leaked from the Rockstar breach earlier this month confirmed extraordinary ongoing revenue from the platform, which explains why Rockstar can afford the development timeline GTA 6 has required.

For players still in GTA Online: stack your cash this week. The 10x Smoke on the Water window specifically doesn't come around often.

GTA Online weekly bonuses are live now and run until April 29, 2026.
