Dr. Dre’s previously rumored Grand Theft Auto project has seemingly been revealed.
Rockstar Games today announced The Contract, a new story expansion for GTA Online that centers around one of GTA V’s protagonists, street gangster and hustler Franklin Clinton, who has since developed a new “celebrity solutions agency” for dealing with the problems of the Vinewood elite. One of the key characters of the expansion will be Dr. Dre; Rockstar’s article seems to add credibility to Snoop Dogg’s claims from October that Dre had produced new music for the franchise.
From Rockstar:
Lost in the shuffle on his way to Cayo Perico last year, it turns out Dr. Dre’s phone isn’t just missing — it’s in the wrong hands. Not only that, but the phone also contains the hottest property in the city: new, unreleased music from Dr. Dre himself. This could be the big break your agency needs.
Get ready for a wild and hilarious ride through Los Santos, from the mean streets of Franklin’s old neighborhood to the hottest parties in the city, from debaucherous mansions to the offices of the FIB and everywhere in between as you join Franklin, expert hacker Imani, Chop the Dog, and crew to secure Dr. Dre’s precious tracks and return them to their rightful owner.
The Contract will be released for GTA Online on December 15, but Rockstar says that it’ll have more to share about it in the days ahead. Some of the new toys that the expansion will introduce to GTA Online players include a compact EMP launcher and Enus Jubilee vehicle.
