Once you’ve found it, shoot and kill the driver (and the passenger riding with him, if you can). Go to it, and you should see a gray and green armored car being driven around by an NPC. You’ll know an armored car when you see one, as a small blue dot will appear on your mini-map. They may be gone from the online mode, but they are still in single-player! Rockstar had to remove them due to the fact that players kept finding ways to exploit them to earn lots of money easily. If you played GTA Online back in the early days, you may remember these armored trucks that would spawn randomly as you played. The first way to make money in GTA‘ s story mode is to raid the armored trucks that spawn around the map. In true zombie fashion, this dead piece of news reared its decomposing head again during 2018 when the data mined from the game files made the rounds online once more, even though no new info was discovered.7/ 7 Raid Armored Trucks Image: Rockstar North, Rockstar Games via HGG While there have yet to be any zombie-related discoveries or any new GTA Online update which brought zombies to the game, it is possible that future content for the multiplayer mode will revive this scrapped idea in some form, as certain other Online DLCs have scavenged such ideas before. Files, code snippets, directories all indicated that the undead would have some kind of presence in the game. The absolutely unexpected runaway success of the multiplayer mode, which included similarly successful microtransactions, clearly caused some resource re-allocation and suddenly Rockstar was releasing one GTA Online DLC after another.Īmong the various rumors regarding what the story DLC would have looked like had it been spared the headman's axe, one of the most prevalent theories indicated a zombie scenario similar to the one we saw in Red Dead Redemption: Undead Nightmare.Įarly on after the game was launched, data miners already discovered a number of references in the code regarding Zombies.

However, GTA Online had a few words to say about that. The source code of certain GTA Online DLCs contain a lot of leftovers that make it seem like they were originally planned for single player DLC, most notably Heists and the more recent The Doomsday Heist. Though certain events at the end of the story meant that Rockstar would need to set the DLC during the course of the existing story, or canonize one of the three possible endings, it seemed like a logical evolution for the game.Īs for the exact content of the scrapped DLC, we can't say for sure.

The reason why the community was so hyped up about some story DLC is because at one point Rockstar Games announced it.Ĭonsidering the massive success of GTA 5, it wasn't even surprising. While we now know that the official stance is a big 'no' on story DLC (see above), things looked a little bit different in the past.
