‘GTA 5' PS4, Xbox One Online Heists DLC: Update Leaked? Bombs, Weapons, Hydra Fighter Jet & More Coming?
Rockstar has already confirmed the arrival of the much-awaited Heists DLC early next year. According to the company's announcement, the new "GTA" Online feature allows four-player co-op mode, featuring "new gameplay, new vehicles, new weapons, new clothing and much more."
At present, we've stumbled upon tipsters dropping hints on the promised new offers, and they're very exciting indeed.
But before we get to these leaks, remember that in the players' pursuit of a successful Heist mission, careful planning and preparation must be done. On top of the team's specified roles for each of its members, the desired end of a Heist venture appears to be dependent on collaborative effort and tight communication. After all, nobody wants to be captured by the Los Santos Police Department.
The recent buzz came from Se7enSins forum user Shady Relapse, who shared a number of leaked source codes, much to the delight of die-hard Heists followers. Specifically, the Latin Times reported that these codes showcased new items for the "GTA 5" 1.20 update on PS3 and Xbox 360, or the 1.07 update for PS4 and Xbox One.
The codes are listed below:
1. "MPHEIST/HEIST_EMP_BOMB"
2. "MP_HEISTS_BIOLAB_FINALE_SOUNDS"
3. "MP_HEIST_TUNING_DLC_CONTENT."
4. "MP_HEIST_LESTER_TARGET_VCLS_FEATURE."
5. "MP_HEIST_CLOTHING_DLC_CONTENT_OUTFITS_SLOT1_SLOT2,"
6. "MP_HEIST_BONUS_DLC_CONTENT_BZGAS_XM25Grenade_Launcher,"
7. "MP_HEIST_DLC_CONTENT_VEHICLES."
8. "MPHEIST_WEAPON_ATT_THERMAL."
9. "MPHEIST_MASK."
10. "MPHEIST_JEFF." [0xBBCB4AAC ]
11. "MP_Buy_PEGASUS_UNLOCK_TMJ_1.500.000$"
12. "PILOT_SCHOOL_VEHICLE_HYDRA"
13. "CONTENT_PACK_HEIST_ANIMALS"
As suggested by Shady Relapse, source codes 1, 6 and 8 are new bombs / weapons; source code 2 is a new audio; source codes 7 and 12 are vehicles; source code 5 is a new clothing; source code 9 are new masks; source code 10 is a new contact; source codes 4 and 11 are new features / unlock keys and finally, source code 13 are horses.
International Business Times wrote that these EMP bombs, shorthand for "Electro-Magnetic-Pulse" bombs, would fare up against other electronic devices such as robots, security cameras and armed sentinels. The outlet also took note of the second source code, the BioLab Finale sounds, which could indicate security door alarms.
For the uninitiated, the vehicle source code Hydra refers to an aircraft, as told by the Latin Times. The popular Hydra VTOL (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) fighter jet was cited by the outlet as a dominant figure in past "GTA" games.
The Heists DLC arrives to all platforms, including the Xbox 360, Xbox One, PS3, PS4 and PC. "Grand Theft Auto V" arrives for the PC on Jan. 27, 2015.
