GTA Online UFO sightseeing is the ongoing event introduced last week as part of the Halloween 2023 update. An unidentified flying object will be seen every day in Los Santos, and players have a golden opportunity to earn money by proving their existence. Throughout October 31, 2023, one can find these UFOs and send their picture to Omega for $15,000 and 1000 RP.

However, the task is not as easy as it sounds; knowing the exact locations and times of these UFOs is very important. That said, this article shares the UFO map location in GTA Online as of today, October 16, 2023.


UFO can be seen at the Altruist Camp on the GTA Online map today

As showcased in the aforementioned X post, today’s map location of the UFO in GTA Online is none other than the Altruist Camp. Players can find the flying saucer looming in the sky above the area.

According to the game’s lore, the Camp is the primary headquarters of the Altruist Cult, a religious cult and gang consisting of elderly men. The camp is located in the heart of the Chiliad Mountain State Wilderness, isolated from the civilization completely. Players can get creepy vibes from the surroundings after reaching the location.

The entire camp consists of abandoned houses, many wooden shacks, and a water mill. The UFO can be seen looming above the area from 10 pm to 4 am in-game time, during which players must take a picture of it and send it to Omega to earn rewards.

Tez2, a famous Rockstar Games insider, also shared an all-locations UFO map for players on X:
