Grand Theft Auto V first burst onto the scene nearly six years ago, but the game has experienced an extended shelf life thanks to its GTA Online component. Rockstar today announced the availability of the latest extension to GTA Online: the new Diamond Casino & Resort.

The entertainment and living complex is located on Vinewood Park Drive, and has plenty of activities to keep you occupied when you're tired of the single-player campaign and other multiplayer events. The casino life is in full effect here, as you'll be able to take your chances with Three Card Poker, Roulette, Blackjack or the venerable slot machines. Heck, you can even bet on horse racing if you're into that sorta thing.

Another interesting addition is something that Rockstar calls the Lucky Wheel. You can spin the wheel once a day to earn items like special discounts and GTA$ that you can use in-game. And for those of you who have visited high-end hotels like the Wynn in real life, you'll be right at home with fancy, high-dollar vehicles that will be on display in the resort and rotated out on a weekly basis.

You'll have access to a Master Penthouse which you an upgrade with add-ons like a Media Room, and Lounge Area; and you can even decorate your new digs with artwork from the Casino Store. If you want to simply relax and take in the digital scenery, you can always chill out at the infinity pool located on the roof of the resort.

For a membership to the Diamond Casino & Resort, you'll need to part with GTA$500, and you'll get a welcome bonus of 5,000 chips. Other perks that come with this new venture include new missions linked to the Cheng Family Dynasty (the owners of the resort), new vehicles to drive and new races to participate in.

The Diamond Casino & Resort is currently available to all GTA Online players.
