Grand Theft Auto V Online is the subject of a lot of speculation today, mostly because there is still nothing definitive to know about its upcoming DLCs. Some speak of Mansion, others of Casino, and some think that the upcoming expansion will have both, as well as a series of other goodies to go around. But right now let's focus on the upcoming Casino DLC, with some online casinos action coming your way.
Rumors about the GTA V Online Casino DLC have been circulating for almost two years now. It is a most anticipated expansion, bringing a lot of new stuff into the world of GTA. According to the latest rumors and supposed leaks, the Casino DLC will bring more than just poker and blackjack to the single and multiplayer version of the game, but gambling minigames too, slot machines, horse racing and lotteries. The first hints about the coming of the Casino DLC were discovered in the Freemode DLC code, which says '0xCED5A615 = Start your day like a pro: play 8 hours of Casino blackjack with your remortgager and divorce attorney. then wash it all down with a time trial through North LS to a Vinehood Hills mansion you'll never own.'
The GTA 5 Online Casino DLC update itself went live around 10am UK time earlier this year. So, if past releases are anything to go by, then the GTA 5 Online Casino Heist could have a start time of between 10am and 11am GMT. Aug 07, 2019 Ever since the launch of Diamond Casino – the latest GTA Online DLC update – GTA Online fans have been crazy about it. The update has turned out to be more successful than any other previous DLC in the GTA V Universe and has roped in larger numbers than.
The forum discussions regarding the upcoming DLC indicate that it might be released 'sometime very soon'. It might not feature the previously rumored 'Roulette' game, focusing on poker, slot machines and blackjack instead. At least the 'roulette' rumor has died out. The 'coming soon' rumor is fueled by the fact that the GTA V Online world has a building dedicated to in-game gambling - a casino building with a huge 'Coming Soon' banner hanging on it.
The other upcoming expansion for GTA V, Mansion, would cater to 'high-wealth' gamers in GTA Online. Rumored to be part of the Ill-Gotten Gains update, it will function much like a real life luxury apartment, featuring a stage for cars, more room activities with friends, and the ability to play various gambling games within them, which players can play with their friends.
The Lowrider DLC, in turn, will introduce 12 new cars into the GTA V universe, including new variations on the Faction, Moonbeam, Primo, Sabre GT, Virgo, Chino, clean Voodoo, Buccaneer, Tornado, and Slamvan.
All rumors could be either confirmed or denied on 11th March, when Rockstar Games prepares to announce new details about the upcoming DLCs. But this date is also a rumor, based on a tweet published by a well known GTA tipster FunMW2. The tweet was removed since, but the rumors still remain - the developer might announce some news, including a release date for the game's April DLC...
Now you can visit the jewel in Los Santos’ crown with the introduction of GTA Online’s Diamond Casino and Resort!
There’s plenty of new stuff in this fresh update, which not only brings the standard new vehicles, but playable casino games as well.
Although the Casino DLC doesn’t include any new weapons, it will have 5 Casino Work Missions, and a grand total of 22 new vehicles to drive.

Of these new rides, only one can be weaponized. It’s an armoured version of the Paragon R that you can mount machine guns onto.
The only weaponized vehicle in this update is called Paragon R (Armored).
It's an armored version of this car shown in the newswire.
You can only install machine guns to it so not that bad.#GTAOnlinepic.twitter.com/KPbXNQNxSJ

Truffade Thrax
This week’s top Lucky Wheel prize is the Truffade Trax, so you’ll be able to see it on the whirling podium in the actual casino. This Bugatti lookalike is another great super car to burn around in.
Enus Paragon R
The Enus Paragon R is a sports car with a lot of flair. As we mentioned earlier, you can get an armoured version of it as well.
Obey 8F Drafter
As the name suggests, the Obey 8F Drafter sports car looks more like a performance drift racer than the other hyper cars we’ve seen so far.

Weeny Issi Sport
The Weeny Issi Sport is the most customisable of the cars introduced in this latest update. It might be small, but it’s still definitely not cheap.
Vapid Caracara 4X4
Surprisingly, despite being a blinged-out truck, the Vapid Caracara 4X4 has the cheapest base-price of the lot.
