Ill-Gotten Gains Part 2 is a content update for Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online. It was released on July 8, 2015, and is the second release during the summer of 2015, following the Ill-Gotten Gains Part 1. The week prior to the release celebrated the Independence Day Special event.
Ill-Gotten Gains Part 2 was the final GTA V/GTA Online content update made available on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3; all subsequent title updates are for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC only (though small software updates are still occasionally released for the original versions of the game).
It was the last update that updated all of its content into GTA V Story Mode; subsequent updates have their content exclusive to GTA Online with a couple of exceptions [1]
Description

Trivia
- The Luxury Helicopter pilot will make a reference to the update, as she told the player that she "does not mind getting paid with ya ill-gotten gains"
- Ill-Gotten Gains Part 2 PC update (build 393.2) severely affected performance, often going down from 60 FPS to 30 FPS. The cause of this was the addition of dead code in order to suppress the abundance of online modding.
- The bug causing this particular issue was fixed in a hotfix update - build 393.4 on July 20th, 2015. Although performance issues can still happen periodically, it isn't as severe as it was after Ill-Gotten Gains Part 2.
