GTA Online Motor and Arena Wars offer 2x bonuses from January 26 to February 1

Players must purchase an Arena Workshop to utilize the Arena War content. Thankfully, along with upgrades, it is available for 40% off this week, while purchasing the Arena Workshop would only cost GTA Online players $597,000. Converting any vehicles for this game mode will also have a discount of 30%.

After buying what you need, it's time to begin the Arena War mode.

Here is a simple step-by-step guide on how you can take part in Arena War content anywhere in GTA Online:

1. Pause the game.
2. Go to 'Online.'
3. Select 'Jobs.'
4. Select 'Play Job.'
5. Select 'Rockstar Created.'
6. Select 'Arena War' and any of the activities inside it.

All jobs in this category give you 2x Arena Points, RP, and money. Pick whichever you wish to do, but remember that these activities require other players to join you. Filling up the lobby shouldn't be difficult this week, although some players may wish to Quick Join via their phone should they not wish to host.

This weekly update is the best chance for players to farm Arena Points, so take advantage of it while it's still around.

Players can access Motor Wars just like in the previous section, except that this content is under Adversary Mode. Only Motor Wars I through VII counts, and there must be at least four people in these jobs to get started. Despite a similarly-sounding name, Motor Wars doesn't give you Arena Points or anything related to that business.

Nonetheless, it can be a fun way for players to earn extra cash and RP while taking on team-based Last Man Standing bouts. Besides these 2x bonuses, the weekly update also includes the following content:

• The Hard Mode Event for First Dose Missions
• Taxi Work Rewards
• The debut of the Issi Rally
• New Gun Van offers, Podium Vehicle, and other expected weekly changes like new discounts

It could be months until GTA Online players get these specific 2x bonuses again, so it's best to utilize them while they're still around.
