How to Buy an Arcade in GTA Online
The latest GTA Online update has introduced Arcades as exciting new properties you can own. These Arcades offer a fun space to play games, store vehicles, and set up elaborate heists like the Diamond Casino Heist. Want to know how to get your hands on one? Follow our step-by-step guide to learn how to buy an Arcade in GTA Online below.
1. Meet Lester in Mirror Park
When you first log into GTA Online, you’ll receive a message from Lester asking you to meet him at Mirror Park (located south of the Diamond Casino). Head over to that location to trigger a cutscene, which introduces you to the Diamond Casino Heist. This is where you’ll start the process of purchasing an Arcade.
2. Open Maze Bank Foreclosures and Buy an Arcade
Once you’ve met with Lester, open the Maze Bank Foreclosures website on your in-game phone. You will now have access to purchase one of six Arcades scattered across Los Santos and Blaine County. Arcades located within Los Santos tend to be more expensive but are closer to the city action.

- Personal Quarters: Add a living space for respawning.
- Garage Space: Store up to 10 vehicles in your Arcade.
4. Set Up the Diamond Casino Heist
After your Arcade is set up, it becomes the hub for planning the Diamond Casino Heist. Access Lester’s planning room to begin preparations and recruit your crew.
