Description
The update features 4 vehicles including the Vapid Slamvan, a clean variant of the Rat-Loader called the Rat-Truck, a racing Massacro and a racing Jester. Over 90 new festive clothing options and 5 new themed masks are available. These are free, but available for a limited time. 30 new tattoos are available at all Tattoo Parlors.
