The holidays are coming and that means snow is coming to GTA Online as well. There are plenty of upcoming holiday events in GTA Online and Rockstar tends to bring back fan favorites.
What this means is that fans should be expecting snow to come to GTA Online soon enough. That could mean new scavenger hunts or more could be coming to the game as well.
Update on 22 December - It is snowing right now in GTA Online. Time to enjoy the annual GTA Online Christmas event known as Festive Surprise. You can read more about all the Christmas-themed content, including Snowmen collectibles, The Gooch event, and much more in our dedicated pages.

When Will It Snow In GTA Online?
Like any other season, snow only happens during the coldest months in GTA Online. It has been snowing every year in GTA Online, so it is a safe bet that snow is coming back in 2022.
But when exactly will it snow in GTA Online again? As expected, it is currently snowing in GTA Online! The snow first started on 22 December, just in time for Christmas and the yearly Festive Surprise event. What are you waiting for? Log into the game right now to enjoy the snowy festive activities.
What Does Snow Do In GTA Online?
Typically, the snow is mostly cosmetic and does not have too much impact on the overall gameplay of GTA. The only meaningful use of snow in GTA Online is to indicate when you can get the game's secret UFO Tattoo.
On top of this, driving around can be a little more difficult and it is possible to throw snowballs as weapons too. In the past, it also meant that more cosmetics were coming for the game as well.
So far though, no official announcements have been made so there is an endless amount of possibilities of what Rockstar could include with the upcoming winter update.
