The new GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties DLC can now be downloaded before its official release on June 25. Just like the early release of the San Andreas Mercenaries and The Chop Shop updates, Rockstar Games has done the same with this GTA Online big summer update.

It’s just a pre-load.
This GTA Online update is exclusively available for download on PS5 and PS4. To tell the truth, you won't be able to play the new content yet; this is just an early download which will save your download time; thence, you can start playing as soon as the update is officially live. Xbox and PC users will need to wait until the DLC's official release to begin downloading it.
There's some good news for Xbox players. Xbox is currently testing a patch pre-load feature and aims to fully implement it shortly. This means that the next major GTA Online update might also be available for pre-load, similar to PlayStation.
GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties release time
The first time pre-load was introduced for a GTA Online update was last summer with the San Andreas Mercenaries update. This was followed by The Chop Shop update in December, both of which were made available for download 48 hours in advance for PlayStation users.
As informed, GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties will come out tomorrow. The download started at 10 a.m. UK time on Sunday, which was 48 hours beforehand. PlayStation says we can start installing the Bottom Dollar Bounties update at 10 a.m. UK time on Tuesday, just as we anticipated.
GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties download size
The GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties pre-load was first noticed by @madara3_game_ch, an X user. They shared a picture of the update downloading on PS5. It's approximately 2.526GB in size and labeled as version 1.007.000. On PS4, the download size is about 3.467GB.
Compared to the previous two GTA Online DLCs, Bottom Dollar Bounties is smaller in size. The Chop Shop was 6.212GB on PS4 and 3GB on PS5, while San Andreas Mercenaries was 5.572GB on PS4 and 2.291GB on PS5. It's also somewhat unusual for a GTA Online update like Bottom Dollar Bounties to be larger on PS4 (3.467GB) than on PS5 (2.526GB), which is typically the opposite as observed in earlier updates.
Players on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC will have to wait until around 10 a.m. BST on Tuesday, June 25th to download the update. We'll share the download sizes for these platforms once they're released.
GTA Online Bottom Dollar Bounties: What’s news?
The Bottom Dollar Bounties update for GTA Online introduces new story missions centered around Bottom Dollar Bail Enforcement led by Maude Eccles. Additionally, the update includes Drift/Drag Races in creator mode, new vehicles, enhanced drifting mechanics, and various gameplay improvements.
Additionally, an important exploit utilized by hackers in GTA Online is set to be addressed in the upcoming patch. As a precaution, the Casino Heist has been temporarily disabled, and players are unable to purchase Arcades until the issue is resolved.
Tomorrow, a new GTA+ month and Event Week will kick off in GTA Online. This gives you only a few days to seize the current exclusive perks and earn significant cash in the game before the update rolls out.
