Rockstar Games is making GTA Online’s co-op missions dubbed Short Trips available to all players. Prior to this change, the only way to access the Short Trips levels was to beat every mission in GTA Online’s latest expansion, The Contract, which features Dr. Dre. Anyone can easily access these missions now in the job menu beginning Feb. 11.
The Contract also brings back two characters from Grand Theft Auto 5’s story, Franklin and Lamar, and gives players a glimpse at what the duo’s been up to in recent years. Franklin establishes his own company dedicated to solving celebrities’ issues, hence why he and Lamar wind up getting entangled with Dr. Dre, who needs help locating a lost phone with music he doesn’t want out in the wild.
These characters take center stage in Short Trips, which focuses on Lamar’s blossoming business ventures, and the hijinx the two leads find themselves in shortly thereafter. The mission pack is short, altogether only amounting to three missions. While brief, I’m sure it’s a boon to many GTA Online players to not have to finish the previous expansion to access them anymore.
GTA Online is obviously a massive success, helping propel GTA 5 to baffling levels of success. Don’t fret about the non-stop expansions for GTA Online though, it isn’t standing in the way of Rockstar developing the next Grand Theft Auto game. And if you just want more GTA 5, Rockstar’s bringing it and GTA Online to next-gen consoles very soon.
