GTA Online update hints that at a long-requested feature may arrive before GTA 6

Sure, GTA 5 and GTA Online have been with us for years now, with dozens of big updates adding new features and content to the Los Santos sandbox. However, there are still some highly-requested things that Rockstar hasn't got around to implementing. One such feature is mansions - while lavish penthouse apartments are all well and good, players have long wanted massive, decadent homes to symbolize the millions (or sometimes billions) of dollars they've accrued over the years. Well, today's latest major update to GTA Online may be teasing the addition of mansions, hopefully just in the nick of time before GTA 6 arrives.

It's been going strong for well over a decade, but GTA Online's days appear to be numbered. While Rockstar hasn't outlined its plans for its multiplayer experience once the GTA 6 release date arrives, it feels highly likely that a new and improved version of GTA Online, set in the new location of Leonida, will be rolled out. This means that, including today's latest major update to the GTA 5 version, there's maybe just a couple of big content drops in Online left before GTA 6 hits.

The new Money Fronts update delivers plenty. There's a money laundering system that gives you access to more businesses: a car wash, the Smoke on the Water cannabis store, and Higgins Helitours. Consider your business empire expanded. Local money laundering kingpin Mr Faber also has some fresh missions for you to complete, and there are several new vehicles to add to your collection.

It's a solid update, but what's even more exciting is a potential teaser that's been datamined from its code.

As was initially uncovered by 'floorball' and shared by the likes of notable GTA news account 'Tez2,' the update hints that future Mr Faber missions will involve helping a "client with their luxury property development." Elsewhere, code for a notification message has been found that reads: "You have earned an exclusive discount on a future property purchase with Prix Luxury Real Estate. They will be in contact again soon when properties become available."

While this is nowhere near absolute confirmation that mansions will be coming to GTA Online soon, it is highly suggestive that they will be. At the very least, it appears some form of new, high-end residential property will be purchasable after helping out Mr Faber's client. After years of apartments, it would be nice for this to be a totally new kind of residence, and a mansion would certainly fit both the "luxury" description and the shady business mogul fantasy of GTA Online.

From what I'm seeing online, these luxury property missions aren't among the Mr Faber missions that are currently live. So, that means that they'll either arrive at some point over the next few months, or could be added (along with the properties themselves) in GTA Online's December major update. GTA Online updates are on a six-month cycle, so this would (barring any more delays) potentially be the last big content drop for GTA 5 Online before GTA 6 arrives in May next year. It would certainly be a way to finish with a flourish, as players have been requesting this for a very long time.

Another theory is that this could be teasing a feature in GTA 6 Online itself. Completing Mr Faber's missions in GTA 5 could then get you a discount for a mansion in GTA 6. Given that a mansion featured as your base of operations in GTA Vice City's story, and GTA 6 will of course be returning to that iconic location, it's not outside the realm of possibility.

As mentioned, none of this is officially confirmed just yet, and even though it's been datamined from GTA 5, we shouldn't jump to definite conclusions.
