Rockstar Games have released a new background update for GTA Online following the recent Kortz Center Heist update. As part of the recent Event Week which contains an End of Summer Giveaway, Rockstar made a yet another background update. This comes just a matter of days after the previous background patch.
The company are continuing to respond to numerous issues which came as part of this summer’s GTA Online DLC. This patch is focused on addressing bugs impacting The Kortz Center Heist finale in particular.
Background updates from Rockstar fix issues without the need of downloading an update. It is all handled server side. This is a routine occurrence after a new GTA Online update so nothing out of the ordinary here.
