We don't often talk about GTA Online updates these days at Pure Xbox, but this one's extra special! A Safehouse in the Hills in the name of the new update that's coming on December 10th, and it features a very familiar face.

Yes, GTA 5's Michael De Santa — one of the main three characters in the single-player campaign — is getting a role in this new update. It features new missions that we don't really know much about yet, various new vehicles as you'd expect, and a few other additions like Freemode events and "several experience upgrades".

The highlight of the update is the addition of "Prix Luxury Real Estate" though - a company that lets you buy a mansion complete with all sorts of features as documented on the "Mansions" section of the official Rockstar Games website.

"For those who have reached the highest rungs of the criminal ladder, celebrate your triumph with a painstakingly crafted palace in one of Los Santos’ most exclusive neighborhoods, complete with breathtaking views, the finest amenities, and countless ways to customize and make it your own.

Plus, stop the development of a mass surveillance network in an all-new action packed adventure — along with exquisite new vehicles to collect, the return of a familiar face, and much more."

To buy a mansion in GTA Online you'll need to have at least $2 million, which you can get by completing three New Listings missions by December 7th. We're not sure how difficult those are, but we're going to give them a try at least!

Finally, it's mentioned that a new mission creator will be coming to GTA Online, allowing you to "design and publish your own Missions using sophisticated game mechanics, custom objectives, placeable actors, and much more."

This sounds like it's well worth trying out when it arrives on December 10th - we'll be there for sure!
