Marabunta para siempre (En: Marabunta forever)
— Marabunta Grande member

The Marabunta Grande is a Salvadoran gang in Grand Theft Auto V and Grand Theft Auto Online.

Description[]

They are heavily involved in drug trafficking and are currently at war with the Mexican gang Varrios Los Aztecas over the drug trade, drug trafficking and arms trafficking in Blaine County. Weazel News also reported that a recent shootout occurred between the two gangs in the Grand Senora Desert.

In The Chop Shop update for Grand Theft Auto Online, updated present-day Marabunta Grande members have been introduced, appearing during The Cluckin' Bell Farm Raid preparation missions.

History[]

Events of Grand Theft Auto V[]

The Marabunta Grande appears for the first time during the mission Father/Son, where Jimmy tries to impress Michael by selling his boat to them. They, however, decide to steal it with a truck, with Jimmy still onboard. Michael and Franklin chase them on the highway, and Franklin jumps onto the boat to get Jimmy out, while Michael shoots the Marabunta Grande members on it. At some point, after Franklin and Jimmy safely return to Michael's car, the car's motor breaks down due to bullet damage, allowing the Marabunta Grande to get away with the boat.

They appear later in the air arms trafficking side mission where they are bringing weapons by sea and moving them out by rail, Oscar orders Trevor to destroy their containers and boats. In the ground arms trafficking side mission, the Marabunta Grande appears twice, both missions where they try to steal packages from Trevor.

Events of Grand Theft Auto Online[]

In GTA Online, the Marabunta Grande appears in certain gang attacks. Defeating them in five Gang Attacks within one session will result in a bounty being placed on the player's head. A threatening text message from "The Boss" will appear, saying: "You're in trouble now. Bitch!". They also appear in the mission Potshot, where their van gets stolen by the player. They also appear in resupply missions for the marijuana business, as they come into conflict with motorcycle clubs.

During the Prison Break - Plane mission, Agent 14 says to the Velum pilot that three custom officers died from spider bites after opening a Marabunta Grande shipment of untaxed cocobolo wood.

During the mission Last Play - Bad Companies (set in 2020), the protagonist kills The Boss in the construction site in Alta.

In one of The Cayo Perico Heist setups, the players storm a warehouse owned by the Marabunta Grande and destroy the body armor shipments meant for El Rubio´s guards.

There is a shootout between the Marabunta Grande and the Duggan Crime Family during ULP - Extraction, with the Los Santos County Sheriff present in the area.

Territory[]

Marabunta Grande members can be found in their territory of East Los Santos specifically El Burro Heights, and have another set in Vespucci Beach. They can also be found hanging out in the LS River, specifically in East Vinewood near Mirror Park, and in La Mesa, directly east of Northern Rancho where they conduct street racing. They are mostly active at night, and often seen in groups, standing on the sidewalks or sitting on porches. Marabunta Grande members are very territorial, and will attack if provoked.

Appearance[]

Members of the Marabunta Grande can be easily identified by their full-face tattoos and bandannas on their heads, faces necks and wrists. Younger members wear modern urban apparel while the older members dress in more classic cholo-style clothing. Their dominant color is blue.

Influence[]

"Marabuntas" are gangs originating in the USA which expanded to Central American countries such as El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala. They appear to be mainly based on the Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13).
