'GTA Online' Biker DLC release date: Big announcement expected Aug. 18

(Rockstar Games)"GTA Online" Biker DLC will reportedly arrive this month.

The "GTA Online" community is heavily buzzing on a possible DLC update that is apparently going to be announced soon. This new content is said to be Biker-themed and may be revealed on Aug. 18.

The news comes from MrBossFTW, a well-known "GTA" YouTuber. According to the account, something big will happen on Aug. 18 and it could be the announcement of the Biker DLC. The speculation stems from the contest that was revealed in June — the CEO Rockstar Editor Contest. The YouTube account posits that the contest is of significance due to the specified date of when the company will announce the winners of the said competition, Aug. 18.

Additionally, another Rockstar event will take place from Aug. 12 to 18. Based on these facts, an assumption can be made that the studio could be announcing the new DLC on that exact date. 

While there are other DLCs making headlines, such as one with a Police Mission and another with Hunting features, this Biker DLC seems to be the current talk of the town. Its contents are also being heavily speculation upon. According to a leak, there will be new Boss missions that will be included in the pack. Apart from that, a new location is said to be coming with the DLC. This new location is rumored to be a new garage that players can also own.

In other news, with updates and content for "GTA Online" coming to an end next year, heads have been turning to what Rockstar Games will churn out next. According to reports, the studio will undertake a new project that will be unveiled at the upcoming PlayStation Meeting taking place in New York on Sept. 7.

In the meantime, fans of the franchise can anticipate a big reveal on Aug. 18. And if rumors are to be believed, the Biker DLC will be released sometime this month, with pinpointed dates teetering between Aug. 23 and Aug. 30.
