GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC is set to bring back the holiday spirit in a future event

Rockstar had the following to say about "jolly holiday hijinks"

Rockstar has several plans in mind for GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC. Here's a direct quote from their Newswire page:

"Caution: Los Santos Drug Wars contains a range of wild side effects, including a new business enterprise to operate, new vehicles and missions, and experiential upgrades."

The paragraph continues on to discuss future events in the winter update, including one related to Christmas:

"And this is just the first dose — be prepared for lots more exciting events, including some jolly holiday hijinks, significant story and gameplay updates, and much more to come."

Rockstar made sure to remind players that the holiday season is approaching quickly. It remains to be seen what they have planned, but it will most likely be a weekly event. The developer will eventually announce it on their official Twitter page by then.

Rockstar did hint at a "multi-part" update a few days ago

Shortly before the update was officially showcased, Rockstar mentioned it would be broken up into multiple parts. Here is another quote from their Newswire page in regards to the GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC:

"Take a walk on the wild side of Blaine County in the first installment of a massive multi-part update taking you all across the expanse of Southern San Andreas, featuring some familiar faces and a new troupe of entrepreneurial misfits on a mission to expand the minds of the citizens of Los Santos, one trip at a time."

GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC will seemingly have a bigger size and scope than last summer's Criminal Enterprises update. It is set to expand the player's horizons from Los Santos to Blaine County. Of course, the entire state will likely endure a heavy snowstorm.

When can players expect the Christmas event?

With a few exceptions, the game typically resets on Thursdays. December 24 and 25 will land on a Saturday-Sunday in this calendar year. With that in mind, GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC will likely celebrate the Christmas event from December 22-28.

Of course, that's only speculation at this point in time, but it's a reasonable assumption to begin with. Rockstar will likely hype up the holidays before then. On that note, the snow will eventually start to fall around the winter season. Players will know right away when San Andreas becomes an icy landscape.

It won't be very long before players can start throwing snowballs at each other. GTA Online Los Santos Drug Wars DLC promises a bigger and better experience this winter season. Fans need to stay on high alert for more updates, otherwise they will greatly miss out.
