Kortz Center Heist FAQs
Here are the most important details to know before you jump into the Kortz Center Heist when it goes live.
How Do You Unlock the Kortz Center Heist?
To access the Kortz Center Heist, you’ll need to own a Mansion. When the heist launches, you’ll be able to buy a new Mansion upgrade called The Art Studio. Once you’ve purchased the Art Studio, you can start the setup work for the Kortz Center Heist.
Can the Kortz Center Heist Be Played Solo?
Yes. The Kortz Center Heist is playable fully solo, starting from the prep missions through the main heist run. That said, bringing a full team of up to four players will increase the number of secondary targets and the loot you can bring back—so solo is viable, but co-op is more lucrative.

Is the Kortz Center Heist the Final Heist in GTA Online?
Rockstar hasn’t confirmed whether the Kortz Center Heist is the last heist and final major update for GTA Online. However, speculation is circulating, especially since Grand Theft Auto 6 is scheduled to launch on November 19. The theory is that the studio’s priorities will shift toward the next entry—and potentially toward something like GTA Online 2. Even so, it’s unlikely Rockstar would fully walk away from GTA Online, given how popular the game remains.
