How to Pick Up & Throw Snowballs in GTA 5 Online PC

Snowballs are a type of seasonal item in GTA Online. Naturally, they only appear during the Winter update. They don’t do a lot of damage – you will need to throw and hit a pedestrian three times with one of them until they die, and a player will take 10 hits (at full health) to die. There is also a chance that a pedestrian or player will be knocked out for a short while if you hit them directly in the head. In any case, if you are playing on the PC, you will need to be unarmed in order to pick up a snowball. You also have to stand on a snow-covered spot. Press G and you will pick up a snowball. You can store up to nine snowballs at once, and select them using the weapon wheel.
