Everything to know about the Power Mad Adversary Mode

This GTA Online multiplayer mode can involve two to eight players divided into two to four teams. The basic premise is to maintain possession of a pickup for a certain amount of time.

At the beginning of the match, a random player is given the role of the Juggernaut. Their job is to keep the pickup secure, and their teammates must defend it from the opposition. Juggernauts are slow-moving but have heavily protective armor.

A new player becomes a Juggernaut once they kill the current one and collect the pickup. Attackers can use pistols, SMGs, shotguns, or rifles, and the aforementioned heavily armored players can defend themselves with a GTA Online Railgun or Minigun.

The team that possesses the pickup at the end of a 40-second timer scores a point. It does not matter which team held the item longer. Hence, a point can be scored by collecting the pickup, even at the very last second.


The side with the most points at the end of a game is declared the winner. If two or more teams have the same score, a sudden death round begins where everyone is a Juggernaut. The first to get a kill wins the match for their squad.
