Get Bonus Payouts for Robbing the Diamond Casino & Resort as The Heists Event Continues

Plus, the Obey 10F Widebody Now at Benny’s, New Community Series Jobs, and More

Sometimes the jackpot isn’t found on a felt table, it’s located in an underground vault monitored by first-rate security teams. Successfully completing The Diamond Casino Heist finale this week will result in 50% more GTA$ and RP. Setup costs for The Diamond Casino Heist are halved this week, and disgruntled employees have been heard grumbling about deliveries of some very valuable gems, so be on the lookout for those during your approach.

2X GTA$ and RP for The Humane Labs Raid
Assemble your team, get your filthy mitts on an EMP, and then figure out a way to infiltrate and exfiltrate the Humane Labs facility without losing life or limb. Earn double payouts on both GTA$ and RP in The Humane Labs Raid through November 16. GTA+ Membership benefits will also stack on this, resulting in Members receiving 3X GTA$.

Doubled payouts continue on all Setup Missions for the entire crop of classic Heists and there’s still 1.5X GTA$ and RP on all Prep Missions for The Doomsday Heist. Meanwhile, determined wire-pullers, hackers, and wheeler-dealers who manage to complete all available Heist Finales before November 24 will receive a bonus to the tune of GTA$2,000,000 for their hard work (delivered within 72 hours of completion).

Upgrade the Obey 10F With a Widebody Kit from Benny’s Original Motor Works, Available Now
It’s a common story in Los Santos. The Obey 8F Drafter was your first car. The 9F was your first DUI. You finally got to third base in the back of the 9F Cabrio. Then the 10F came along, and you fell in love. This, at long last, was the real thing. Perfection.

Then Benny said, “Perfection is just the beginning.” And you know what? He’s right … the Obey 10F is now eligible for Widebody customization at Benny’s Original Motor Works.

Collect The Diamond Strike Vest by Completing The Diamond Casino Heist

Successfully taking down The Diamond Casino Heist this week will land you The Diamond Strike Vest.

New Community Series Selections

Six new combat-focused Jobs have been selected for the Community Series and earn you 2X GTA$ and RP this week, available to play now via the icon in Legion Square:

# Merryweather Docks by Kossmo__

This tense King of the Hill for a previously featured Creator has rightfully earned a spot in the Community Series. Use cover and take advantage of limited visibility to carefully make your way in a well-thought-out and atmospheric map.

Runners vs Snipers by AtomixPax

In this Last Team Standing Job, one team must maneuver their way through an elaborate obstacle course while distant Snipers take potshots. If the Runners survive the onslaught, they’re rewarded with a fleet of high-powered jets capable of wiping the other team off the map.

Cabmaggedon by Vill3m

A loving homage to both the Sumo and Last Team Standing formulae that pits a team of local Taxis against modern hybrid electric vehicles. Shunting your opponent down the hole in the arena’s center will drop them into a giant blender. Who will come out on top: the humming vanguard of transportation’s future or the roar of old-fashioned gas-guzzling piston engines? Only time, gravity, and your own tenacity will tell.

*UL* Blood Forest by x-unlikely-x

Mood and vibe are integral parts of this eerie Team Deathmatch. *UL* Blood Forest can fit up to 30 players in a run-and-gun style TDM built around a spooky treehouse. Cover is scant, so watching your teammates’ backs will be key to your success.

Wet and Wild RVI by WayneHii

A classic format is given a novel twist in this neatly designed Last Team Standing arena. Instead of one team spawning on the platform and one on the ground, teams will race each other to a central platform with the RPGs required to take out their opponents. Being first to snatch a weapon can be a major advantage, so don’t dawdle.

– w.e.MUSKET ISLAND by whateverremily
Reloading is more of a danger than ever on Musket Island, where a missed shot either means certain death, or a panicked moment spent frantically loading the chamber of a 16th century firearm. This is the kind of Deathmatch where first shots really count, so aim for the head. This creative map also contains multiple platforms for cheeky flanking maneuvers — so keep your head on a swivel.

Get the K-Rose and Statue of Happiness T-Shirts

Visit the sunny shores of Los Santos to collect some souvenirs in celebration of the Grand Theft Auto Series’ 25-year history, namely the rare K-Rose and Statue of Happiness T-Shirts — free to all who play GTA Online this week.

2X GTA$ and RP on Open Wheel Races

The racing circuit is a perfect outlet for stress and competitive urges. It’s not really road rage if you have sponsors — it’s called a PIT maneuver. Taking part in Open Wheel Races at speeds way above street-legal levels will result in Double Rewards, all week long — consider that a perfect excuse to slipstream past your rivals.

2X GTA$ and RP on Gerald Contact Missions

Hone your skills and help Gerald maintain control of his corner of Los Santos’ much-contested drug turf to realize your ambitions as a rider and earn 2X GTA$ and RP on all Gerald Contact Missions.

2X GTA$ and RP on Hardest Target Adversary Mode
What if your therapist was wrong and the gang-stalkers in your head are real? Hardest Target presupposes that you are being tracked by armed individuals looking to do you harm. The objective is simple: wipe out the other team’s Target and protect your own by any means necessary. Lay it all on the line, and you’ll walk away with 2X GTA$ and RP for playing any time through November 16.

Only on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S

Premium Test Ride: Grotti Brioso R/A

Pull into a parking spot at the LS Car Meet and wander over to Hao’s Special Works to scope out the crew’s latest experiment: the petit Grotti Brioso R/A, totally hollowed out and given a whole new lease on life via a suite of upgrades and modifications. Give it a five-minute spin around the block or purchase it outright from Hao himself — no intermediary website required.

This Week’s HSW Time Trial

Put Hao’s mods to the test by slamming the gas pedal and flouting traffic laws in a sprint between Del Perro Beach and Murrieta Heights in this week’s HSW Time Trial.

Premium Deluxe Motorsport Showroom
Those who know him know that Simeon Yetarian loves to conduct his business the old-fashioned way: exchanging currency for cars of questionable provenance in a well-lit, climate-controlled dealership that he owns and oversees. Saunter through the showroom this week to get a closer look at the following vehicles, take them for a probationary drive around the neighborhood, compare specifications, and buy them outright:

• A Classic Yellow Dinka Kanjo SJ
• The Pfister Comet Safari in a Dark Green paint job and Arid Theater livery
• An Ice White Dinka Blista Kanjo wrapped in the Highway Hunter livery
• A Classic Lime Green Pegassi Ignus with Black Stripes
• The Lampadati Komoda in Metallic Bright Purple

Luxury Autos Showroom
Rockford Hills locals can stop by the Luxury Autos showroom window, located just opposite Record A Studios, to gawk at the Ocelot R88 and Progen PR4 on display this week. Both are 25% off this week and can be purchased directly from the showroom.

Try Out the Grotti Furia, Dewbauchee JB 700W, and Dinka Sugoi

There are plenty of ways to sample automotive excellence out and about in Southern San Andreas. The Test Track inside the LS Car Meet is offering complementary rides in the Grotti Furia, Dewbauchee JB 700W, and Dinka Sugoi.

LS Car Meet members can also check out this week’s Prize Ride — the photogenic Lampadati Casco — and win it by placing first in LS Car Meet Races for four days in a row.

On The Diamond Casino Podium: The Übermacht Rebla GTS
Visit the lobby of The Diamond Casino & Resort to give the Lucky Wheel a spin for a shot at winning the Übermacht Rebla GTS, a sensible European sedan with the polite professionalism and low-humming intensity of an office worker drone.

GTA+

GTA+ Members can make the most of The Heists Event with a Buckingham SuperVolito helicopter and Penthouse Suite 1 atop Eclipse Towers. Plus, get a free Apartment Style change for any of the three Penthouse Suites at Eclipse Towers, as well as:

The Tower -To the Bottom- (Working Title) Makes its Escape Jan. 19 on Nintendo Switch, Steam

New trailer and Nintendo Switch version of roguelike deckbuilding survival adventure revealed at Today’s JP Nintendo Indie World

TOKYO – Nov. 10, 2022 – The Tower -To the Bottom- (Working Title), a real-time roguelike deckbuilding survival adventure, took part in the Japanese-language Indie World showcase. The Switch version and its Thursday, Jan. 19, 2023 release date, shipping simultaneously on Steam for PC, were revealed by Nintendo.

SHUEISHA GAMES, the new video game publishing arm of prestigious manga publisher SHUEISHA (One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, My Hero Academia, Demon Slayer, One Punch Man, Jujutsu Kaisen, Hunter x Hunter, Death Note), the Japanese parent organization of VIZ Media, welcomes The Tower -To the Bottom- as its latest release and debut Steam title. Developer Tasto Alpha features Tom Ikeda, known for directing Lollipop Chainsaw and serving as lead game designer on the critically-acclaimed Little King’s Story and BLACK BIRD.

Living atop a bizarre, shifting tower, a group of 20 lost children scrounge for survival. In hopes of finding precious bread, and in search of the rumored paradise at the bottom, they descend into the tower’s depths, two at a time. Choose two of the children, each with different starting cards and traits, battle the strange inhabitants of the tower, and uncover mysteries throughout branching paths in a real-time twist on deckbuilding roguelikes.

Draw from your deck with the ability to deal a new hand at any time, and unleash attacks and defensive moves in real time to skillfully counter and negate enemy effects. Contend with cards that flip thus altering their functions, either throwing a wrench in carefully-laid plans or providing a surprising new strategy. After each battle, choose the appropriate reward; adding one of the game’s 70 cards might help slay future foes, but bread can help feed the inhabitants back up top or heal the current adventuring party.

Increase affinity with the kids and earn experience with each new run, unlocking new starting cards and traits. Discover new upgrades for the kids’ base as they advance from starving children to a self-sufficient commune, albeit one seeking answers to just what lies beyond the ends of The Tower. Get to the bottom literally and metaphorically, in an enthralling story set in a tarot-inspired world featuring character design by Masaoki Shindo, the artist behind the hit manga currently serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump, RuriDragon.

“We couldn’t have picked a better title for SHUEISHA GAMES to jump into the roguelike genre with than The Tower -To the Bottom-, especially since we were able to get Shindo-sensei to provide a unique take on tarot archetypes for Tasto Alpha’s inventive experience,” said Masami Yamamoto, Executive Officer & Executive Producer, SHUEISHA GAMES. “The game offers a great blend of the proven fun of deckbuilding roguelikes, with original card mechanics and survival aspects that make it something all its own.”

The Tower -To the Bottom- releases on Nintendo Switch and Steam for PC on Thursday, January 19, 2023, for $19.99 with support for English, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese text. A demo is now available on Steam.

For more information on the game, visit the official website, and follow @TheTowerEN and @SHUEISHA_GAMES on Twitter.

Nintendo Indie World Event Reveals Two Upcoming Chorus Worldwide Launches

VANCOUVER, Canada — November 9, 2022 — Today’s Nintendo Indie World revealed the upcoming launches of two heartfelt, narrative-focused games from publisher Chorus Worldwide:

• Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly pours a fresh cuppa on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox, and PC via Steam in Spring 2023

• A Space For The Unbound takes players to late ‘90s rural Indonesia on a beautiful slice-of-life adventure on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox, and PC via Steam Thursday, January 19, 2023

Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, Toge Productions’ continuation of 2020’s heart-to-heart talking sim Coffee Talk, brews a fresh pot of stories early next year. Embrace the cozy atmosphere that drew more than a million would-be baristas to the first game.

Meet the diverse, fantastical locals in an alternate present-day Seattle. Become a fixture in their lives by providing an eager ear for their gripping tales. Create latte-art masterpieces while listening to the personal issues plaguing each individual. Provide warmth through a decorated cup of coffee and influential conversations.

A Space For The Unbound, Mojiken Studio’s gorgeous pixelart adventure, stars two high school sweethearts on a journey of self-discovery. A strange supernatural power threatens their community, so the pair strives to use their own newfound powers to heal those they love. As a looming comet collision approaches, rally together as a town coping with the end of the world and alleviate the communal pressures of the anxieties that follow.

Navigate a melancholic reality laden with unearthly happenings in a story about overcoming anxiety and depression. Dive into the minds of others, interact with their emotions, and help improve their wellbeing in a lovingly crafted narrative told through richly detailed pixel art bringing the Indonesian setting to life.
