Heists Update



The Heists Update is an upcoming content update coming to Grand Theft Auto Online in early 2015.

The Heists Update will allow players to plan, prepare and execute multi-tiered Heists across Los Santos and Blaine County through a series of new missions organized by Lester Crest and a Heist Planner. These will require tight communication and coordination, with players taking on specified roles at each point to accomplish multiple objectives on the way to complete the Heists. The update will feature new vehicles, weapons & clothing.

Vehicles
New vehicles include the Hydra, an unnamed attack helicopter (possibly the Hunter or beta Hind), a helicopter similar to the Maverick with side mounted miniguns, a new version of the Kuruma, based on the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X and two new armored trucks including an unnamed APC and a small unarmed truck. There is also custom Karin Rebel that has a mounted machine gun on the truck bed. A large aircraft carrier is also present, and is most likely used to carry aircraft like the P-996 Lazer and Hydra.

A flare gun is also seen in the trailer.

Missions
Several new missions are set to be added, and will be Heist oriented. They are not all listed and they are also speculative;
 * A prison bus bust mission similar to Bust Out but more advanced.
 * A mission involving the Dignity.
 * A mission involving stealing a Kuruma in transit using a Cargobob.
 * A mission involving stealing fighter jets from an Aircraft Carrier, one of them is the Hydra.
