4 million GTA Online users have now reportedly played First Dose Mission 1

The First Dose series was introduced in GTA Online with the December 2022 winter update, and its first mission has reportedly been played by over four million users so far. Rockstar Games released the series with the Los Santos Drug Wars update on December 13, 2022, and it quickly became popular among fans.

Although PC players were forced to take a voluntary break from the multiplayer game for a few days due to remote code execution exploits, the mission has grown in popularity and recently reached this new milestone.
