Arena War is a content update for Grand Theft Auto Online, released on December 11th, 2018.
Description
“
Enter Arena War, where ruthless gladiatorial combat meets the bleeding-edge of vehicular modification technology in one spectacular – and highly combustible – competition. Sign up and embark on an entirely new career under the stratospheric dome of the Maze Bank Arena, one that involves turning your opponent’s brains into pulp on the steering wheel in the name of entertainment, courtesy of Alan Jerome Productions.
Compete in all new vehicle types custom built for the Arena across seven explosive new modes. As your Arena War career progresses, you’ll earn Arena Points and use them to rank up and unlock even more toys to take into the Arena or out onto the streets.

Trivia
- The song that plays during the Arena War Trailer is "SLAVES OF FEAR" by HEALTH. The song may also play during Arena War Series missions.
- Much of the DLC and its contents is inspired by the Mad Max franchise, including vehicle designs and modifications, while the use of the Arena is heavily based on Arena battle events such as those hosted by Monster Jam.
