Casino-themed rewards and extended duration of event
The most intriguing news this week is that the GTA Online event week will continue until July 18. There have already been rumors about a new DLC arriving on July 19, and the longer time frame only strengthens those rumors.
The week seems to be themed around the Diamond Casino Heist, which is obvious from some of the discounts and bonuses.
It only makes sense that diamonds will be made available as a possible loot during the casino vault heist. However, players only have an 18% chance of finding them, so this loot is still quite rare.
Meanwhile, the discounted cars and Podium/Prize Rides aren't exactly in high demand, but they'd still be a nice addition to a GTA Online player's car collection.
