Year-grouped history

Each section groups updates from a single year, from 2013 through 2026, so you can see what the live service added as it grew from its launch footprint into heists, businesses, and newer expansions.

Use as a timeline rather than a guide

This collection emphasizes what was added and its era, not step-by-step mission instructions. Pair it with the job or business page that matches your current goal once you know which update introduced that content.

Content versus quality-of-life

UpdateType flags whether an entry was a content addition or a broader system shift. The distinction helps when you are researching whether a feature came from a major expansion or a smaller patch.

2013 title updates from that year's live service changes.
