GTA Online Kortz Center heist launches June 25, 2026

Rockstar announced the Kortz Center heist for GTA Online will go live on June 25, 2026. The developer outlined required properties, crew sizes and preparatory missions players must complete before attempting the finale.

The job unlocks through a new activity tied to the Kortz Center location in Los Santos. Players will access the heist from GTA Online’s main menu under new heist planning options once the update is active.

To start the heist teams need a personal planning space such as a Facility or another similarly equipped hub, at least two players in a crew (the heist supports up to four), and enough in-game cash to cover setup fees and equipment purchases. Several mandatory prep missions must be finished before the finale becomes available.

Prep missions will send teams across Los Santos and Blaine County to collect intelligence and special items. Tasks include stealing access keycards, procuring vehicles for escape routes, and completing stealth or combat objectives that feed into the final raid.

Some prep items will be reusable for multiple attempts; others are single-use and must be repurchased if the heist fails. Payouts scale with chosen difficulty and are divided among players based on role distribution during the finale.

The heist will include solo-eligible paths for certain prep tasks, while the final raid is designed for up to four players. The update recommends assembling crews with drivers, hackers and heavy-gun operators because the mission combines stealth sections, timed objectives and open combat.

The update adds new weapon variants and vehicles tied to the Kortz Center that players can keep after completing the heist. During the first week after release, players who complete the Kortz Center heist will receive an experience boost and extra cash rewards.

Rockstar also included weekly challenges linked to the heist to extend its reward track. The patch notes list bug fixes and balance changes targeting heist prep missions to reduce respawn exploits and improve enemy AI behavior during the finale.

The announcement did not include direct quotes from Rockstar. Further operational details and player guides are expected to appear once the update goes live.

Players planning to run the Kortz Center heist should confirm their planning space, assemble a crew with needed skills and reserve funds for one-time prep purchases before June 25, 2026.
