How To Unlock GTA Online's Secret Casino Mission

If you want to see everything you can see here in GTA Online, you're going to need to drink, and you're going to need to drink a lot. Recently, players have discovered a secret mission in the game's new Diamond Casino and Resort update that revolves around a familiar video game trope: getting blackout drunk. It's not the most straightforward thing in the world, and there seems to be some serious RNG involved. But there's a secret mission available for anyone that's willing to raise their chins and get loaded.

To unlock this secret mission, all you need to do is go to either the public bar in the casino or the private one in your penthouse. Order a shot MacBeth Whiskey and black out. Wake up somewhere else, grab another shot, and black out again. Do it enough times and you'll eventually wind up inside of the secret mission. You can see a video of how the whole thing goes down here. It's a pretty straightforward affair, but it's the secret part of things that's so enticing.

There appears to be a significant amount of RNG involved, and some players report taking a giant number of shots without ever waking up inside the mission. But it definitely exists, so if this is important to you there's really only one thing to do: keep drinking. If only life were that simple.

It's not the first time GTA Online has pulled this trick: drinking the same whiskey is also tied to blacking out and waking up with a unique shirt.

The whole idea is a fun take on some pretty standard player behavior. Basically, as soon as video games started having bars at which you could order drinks, players responded in the only way they knew how: ordering a ton of drinks and seeing what happens. That's sort of my baseline behavior in a lot of games, after all. If you give me a repeatable action, I'm probably going to repeat it until the game either starts recycling canned responses or something weird happens. GTA Online has clearly chosen the "something weird" approach.

Red Dead Redemption 2 also had a liquor-focused mission, though that one was part of the main story and not exactly a secret. Maybe I can go take a million shots in Red Dead Online and see if something happens.
