‘GTA V’ Didn’t Have Any Online Valentine’s Day DLC This Year, Fans Show Their Disappointment

After Rockstar Games held the Valentine’s Day Massacre event last year for Grand Theft Auto V fans, many users were hoping that the online event would return once to the game’s online multiplayer mode this year. Late last week, gamers began questioning Rockstar Games’ official support website if the online event would indeed be held again this year in GTA V. At the time, the developer’s support staff only commented that any announcement regarding events would be posted on the official Rockstar Newsire blog.

However, after this past weekend’s holiday passed by, it became clear that GTA V fans wouldn’t get their chance to enjoy the Valentine’s Day-themed event for a second time. This made many gamers upset because they missed out on the chance to enjoy the event last year. Those who picked up GTA V for the first time following the game’s recent Xbox One and Playstation 4 release obviously didn’t get to acquire any of the exclusive weapons and vehicles from the Valentine’s Day Massacre since Grand Theft Auto V didn’t release on current-gen consoles until later that year.

While some players feel cheated out of the Valentine’s Day event, others point out that Rockstar Games never promised that any of the seasonal holiday events would be offered annually to GTA V players. A common thought in support of the developer’s decision to pass over the holiday is that Rockstar Games is likely too busy trying to get the anticipated online heists of GTA V ready to launch. The new co-op missions were previously announced to be ready before the upcoming PC release of Grand Theft Auto V becomes available next month.
