Rockstar Games adds the Kortz Center art heist to GTA Online on July 14, 2026. Players buy an art studio upgrade then complete scouting, forgery, and cleanup tasks to steal paintings, alone or in groups of four. The update ends a long gap without new heists and includes login bonuses plus new vehicles.

Rockstar Games revealed that its latest GTA Online heist targeting the Kortz Center will launch on July 14, 2026.

The operation focuses on artwork theft together with counterfeiting. Participants link up with Mr. Faber and his lead fixer, Raf De Angelis. This content ends a lengthy absence of new heists and opens fresh avenues for illicit activity, forgery schemes, and high-end art robbery.

Participation starts with purchasing an Art Studio upgrade attached to the player's Mansion. The added space doubles as a venue for entertaining invited crew members. After construction, operators recruit a skilled forger who produces replicas of pieces selected from the Kortz Center.

Setup requires reconnaissance plus evidence elimination. The mission supports lone operators or crews of up to four total. Initial tasks send players to the target building to capture reference images of displayed works while evading detection and mapping entry and exit paths.

With scouting finished, attention turns to execution strategy. The venue holds multiple lucrative optional items that boost overall payout. Operatives must also sanitize the scene by removing witnesses and erasing security recordings, since pilfered originals typically fetch reduced market value.

The upgraded studio doubles as storage and display space. It warehouses equipment and tools gathered throughout setup, letting teams select personalized gear for the final stage. Inside, stolen originals can be exhibited, although the opening weekly transaction always pays the highest rates.

Owners may retain certain primary pieces to adorn their properties instead of selling. Fresh canvases rotate in each week, each presenting distinct tactical variations. The facility further serves as a personal gallery for collected works.

Launch incentives and added rides round out the package. Joining the Fine Art Collector initiative grants a GTA$500,000 bonus along with a complimentary Benefactor Turreted Limo simply for logging into GTA Online; finishing any heist before July 13 unlocks the NOOSE Outfit and an additional GTA$1,000,000. Mansion proprietors additionally receive Elitist rank, a free Annihilator Stealth helicopter, a GTA$1,000,000 price cut on the studio itself, a Kortz Center Sculpture, and access to one premium painting that can be sold or displayed.
