If you already own the Brickade 6x6 and still run Acid Lab sell jobs, this was the week to work. If you were chasing novelty, you could skip the noise, pocket the login money, and wait for The Kortz Center Heist to arrive in July.

Rockstar’s June 24 GTA Online rotation was built around the Fine Art Collector program, which ran from June 18 through July 13 and tied directly into the new heist at the Kortz Center in Pacific Bluffs. Logging in during the promo window qualified players for GTA$500,000 and a free Benefactor Turreted Limo, with Rockstar saying the full program could deliver up to GTA$1,500,000 in bonus cash. The payout window was quick too, with rewards scheduled within 72 hours after players hit the requirements.

The cleaner money was in the heist-adjacent tasks. Completing any GTA Online Heist during the promo period paid GTA$1,000,000 and unlocked the NOOSE Outfit, while finishing three FIB Files added another GTA$100,000. Rockstar also stacked the event page with 4x GTA$ on the Fine Art File and 2x GTA$ on FIB Files, so the route that made the most sense was obvious: log in, knock out the easy checklist, and keep moving. For mansion owners who were already in the loop before the update lands, the hook gets even better when The Kortz Center Heist arrives, with a GTA$1,000,000 discount on the Art Studio upgrade, a free Annihilator Stealth, a Sculpture, and a chance to unlock a unique Painting for the property.

The Acid Lab bonuses were the best part for players who had already done the setup work. Rockstar’s event language gave Acid Lab Resupply and Steal Missions double supplies all week, and sell missions paid 1.5x GTA$ and RP, which is exactly the kind of targeted boost that turns an owned business into fast, low-friction money. The 40% discount on the Brickade 6x6 also lowered the entry cost for late adopters, but the real value was for players who could immediately turn around and ship product instead of buying in from scratch.

That is why this rotation felt less like a random weekly refresh and more like onboarding for the next update cycle. Rockstar pushed a cash-heavy checklist, tied it to the Kortz Center in Pacific Bluffs, and used the Acid Lab bonus to keep established grinders engaged while the July heist rolls closer. For anyone short on time, the smartest move was simple: take the login cash, clear the heist and FIB File objectives, and treat the Acid Lab as the only grind worth revisiting before the summer drop hits.
