Infamous GTA Online casino is finally opening its doors

4.4
The GTA Online casino is an infamous building, solely because it's existed since the start of the game but has never once opened its doors. Numerous other buildings throughout GTA Online have welcomed players with open arms, but the casino has been kept firmly shut to prevent players from gambling away their hard-robbed cash. But that could potentially be changing very soon...


TezFunz2, a well-known GTA Online dataminer, has dived into the files and discovered evidence that the GTA Online casino will be opening its doors to players in the near future. Datamined information suggests there will be timed alterations to the casino exterior, followed by the doors eventually opening and players being allowed inside. Replies to the above tweet show that a few minor changes have already taken place, and there's an interior that can be seen now.

This news comes shortly after poker and other gambling games were added to Red Dead Online, stirring the pot since the game has microtransactions. Only gold bars can be bought with real money however, and gambling in that game uses dollars, which are a separate currency. For Rockstar to avoid uproar, it'll need to introduce a second currency to GTA Online that can't be bought with real money, which we haven't had any sign of yet. Only time will tell however, and it's likely that Red Dead Online's gambling was used to test the waters for GTA Online, which is their big time cash cow.

I can't wait to lose all my money :D That's okay though, because I had like 7 pre-made accounts on 360 modded that carried over, all but one got banned, I guess under a trillion was the right mark because just under a trillion is what that last account had lol

ttghanman Aw damn i just spent 4.5 million a couple of days ago would have saved it if i had known this was coming out so soon...

i wouldn't worry to much it may not even be for gambling reasons and if they'll probably add a different currency and you''ll probably have to do missions to get that currency. What's the point of a new currency if you could just exchange. I'm sure red dead works this way.

I think they would do what the article says, make a new currency that you can't buy with irl money
