After the update in GTA Online, which marks the beginning of a new bonus week, players notice that something is happening in the game. Construction is happening again at the casino. Is this the start of the biggest update that Rockstar promised?
What is different in GTA Online now? Today, on November 12, a new bonus week has launched in GTA Online with a small update. But instead of just discovering the new discounts and bonuses, players found out that construction is now happening at the Diamond Casino.
Update 5:00 PM: The GTA bonuses are here. In addition to a large bonus, there is also a massive community challenge that players are supposed to complete together. Again, a lot is revolving around heists and the Diamond Casino.
The data miner Tez2 shared images and a message from “Tom Connors” pointing to the renovation of the casino. He shared it on Twitter:
In the back area of the casino, there are now building materials and an entrance has been secured and equipped with warning signs. It seems that the construction work is already in full swing or is about to start.
The start for the biggest update?
What is this update about? Along with the announcement of the summer update, Rockstar announced that the biggest update of all time will be launched this year.
Although Rockstar has not yet set a fixed date for the DLC, a release soon seems likely. The year 2020 ends in just two months, so there isn’t much time left for the release.
What they have already revealed about the biggest update: There will be a completely new location that will also be associated with a new heist. The heists are even expected to come in a new form that Rockstar has come up with.

What does the community say about this?
This is what players say about the construction work: After this discovery, players seem curious about what lies behind it. After all, we are all eagerly waiting for the biggest update of all time that Rockstar has promised.
But some players are skeptical, wondering why construction is taking place at the casino when it was said that there would be a completely new location with a heist for the DLC. They say on Twitter under Tez2’s post:
- “Oh no, they are expanding the casino. This will be the whole ‘new location’.”
- “They (Rockstar) said there would be a completely new location, but if they only expand the casino, it will be one of the smallest updates.”
- “Please don’t tell me that your biggest update is just an expansion of the casino.”
- “If it really turns out to be just another casino DLC, remember that they (Rockstar) set the expectations high with ‘the biggest update.'”
It seems players have high expectations for the next DLC after Rockstar itself announced it as “the biggest update of all time.” It could also be that preparations are simply being made, and after that, even bigger changes will become noticeable.
We will probably have to wait and see how this develops in the coming weeks. MeinMMO author Patrick Freese will also wait until the next big update is available, until then he has said goodbye to GTA Online.
