How to Get the Gooch Outfit in GTA Online

If you’ve ever wanted to look like a Christmas Nightmare, then you’ll want to get your hands on The Gooch Outfit. This outfit has you in a full-body suit with a monkey-esque mask, Santa’s jacket, a set of fuzzy-legged pants, and elf shoes.

It’s the perfect outfit to get into Christmas mayhem with. And getting it is relatively straightforward. Here’s how to get the Gooch Outfit in GTA Online.

There are three requirements. First, you must be online, in-game, for 48 in real-time. Totally doable. However, you must have two players in your session with you. And the final requirement is that you must have money and snacks in your possession.

Now, you just have to sit back and wait. The Gooch will come to you in an attempt to mug you. You can’t force it to appear, as it’s a random occurrence that has the chance to occur once you’ve met all three of these requirements.

However, once it does appear, it’ll arrive in its trademark green smoke and knock you back. It will then rob you of your money and snacks.

You’ll then need to chase the Gooch, which will be marked as a red dot on your mini-map. If you kill it, it will drop the money and snacks it stole from you, along with its entire outfit. This is a huge step up from last year, when the only thing we got was the Gooch Mask.
