Download Size Revealed

At the moment, we only know one specific about the Los Santos Tuners update and that is that it's clocking in at around 3.5GB on Xbox platforms. This is also around 3.6GB on PlayStation consoles, according to GTAonlineNews. The PC download size is clocking in at around 4.35GB. It's a little larger, but nothing to be too concerned about.

Where The Patch Notes At?

The Los Santos Tuners update might be showing up for a few people, now. However, don't worry if you haven't seen it yet. The Red Dead Online Blood Money update didn't drop until a lot later in the day.

This means we should see it appear for everyone at around 06:00 PST / 09:00 EST / 14:00 BST on July 20th at the very latest. Using the Red Dead Online update as a guideline once again, we should see Rockstar Games release something along the lines of Los Santos Tuners patch notes shortly after this.

We might not have the patch notes for the Los Santos Tuners update yet, but we still know a bit about what's coming...

What To Expect From The Update?

  • Annis Remus
  • Dinka Jester RR
  • Obey Tailgater S
  • Vulkar Warrener HKR
