This month on the frontier, (expectant?) outlaws can find an assortment of bonuses on Free Roam Events/Missions, an opportunity to save their favourite towns from evil in Call to Arms, bonuses on A Land of Opportunities Missions, the Featured Series – and in theme for GTA Online’s Summer Racing Event – bring your horse to the Races for bonuses.

We understand that not every Event will be to everyone’s liking, some will certainly be more exciting than others, but anyway…
Let’s get started!
Hold your own in Free Roam Events and Missions
The frontier isn’t always the peaceful, beautiful place you might think it is. Distant or close-by gunshots will disturb your appreciation of the vistas, and you must go and see what’s going on. Someone with a telegram runs to your you as you reach a town, and you find out a Free Roam event is happening. Indeed time to see what’s going on.
