There are a lot of different Adversary Modes available for players, but Drop Zone is amongst the best of them. The new GTA Online weekly update made it even more enticing by offering double the money for playing the game mode throughout the week.

The objective of the Drop Zone is simple: jump off the Cargobob and capture the target area. The team with the most time on the location or fully capturing it first wins the game.

Here’s how to quickly start Drop Zone for GTA Online double bonuses this week:

  1. Open the Pause Menu, and go to the Online tab
  2. Select Jobs, and choose Play Jobs
  3. Go to Rockstar Created, and select Adversary Modes
  4. Scroll down to find different Drop Zone games listed on it

There are a total of five Drop Zone Adversary Modes available in 2023, each offering a different target area to capture.

Here’s the complete list of Drop Zone locations that players can select in GTA Online this week:

  • Drop Zone I – FIB Headquarters, Pillbox Hill
  • Drop Zone II – University of San Andreas, Richman
  • Drop Zone III – Los Santos Naval Port, Elysian Island
  • Drop Zone IV – Nikola Avenue, Mirror Park
  • Drop Zone V – Sisyphus Theater, Vinewood Hills

A total of 16 different GTA Online players can participate in one Drop Zone match, equally divided into four teams of different colors:

  • Orange
  • Green
  • Pink
  • Purple

Once players jump out of the Cargobob, they will see a yellow circle on the mini-map denoting the target area. If more players of the same team stand in the location, the capture bar fills faster than usual. However, if no team captures the area before the time limit, the Sudden Death rule will be applied. This means the last surviving team will win the match.

Here’s a list of weapons that players will be equipped with by default:

  • Assault Rifle
  • Micro SMG
  • Body Armor
  • One Grenade

Moreover, players have the freedom to find many more items throughout the match.


If Grand Theft Auto fans are looking for something fun to play this week, they must try Drop Zone to be prepared for the upcoming San Andreas Mercenaries DLC update.
