GTA V Downloadable content for Heists and Holidays coming soon

Those that enjoy Grand Theft Auto V will be very interested in some Heist and Holiday DLC (downloadable content) that is coming soon for the popular open world video game that takes place in San Andreas and its city of Los Santos.    

According to the International Business Times, a YouTuber known as DomisLive has some interesting information about the DLC to the immensely popular.  Let's start with leaks on the Heists missions, according to the Latin Times. 

Prison Van Rescue CnC

The CnC stands for Cops and Crooks, and this involves crooks stealing a news van in order to reach a fellow gang member.  Once the gang member is in the van, the Cops will come out, and you will have to lose them before getting back to the gang house. 

Hostage Deal CnC Mission

As the name implies, it is about recovering a hostage from a gang.  In this case, you are trying to get a hostage from an NPC (nonplayable character) gang as players move this hostage to a new safe house.  There are even players that act as cops to stop the biker gang. 

Weapons Deal CnC Mission and Stealing Artifacts from the Military Base

In this mission, you have to track down a criminal who is hiding out, and deliver him to the cops.  In exchange, the crooked cops will exchange some weapons for some cash.  Speaking of weapons, the "stealing artifacts from the military base" has a mission description of "Vikings gang members have to steal an artifact from the military base while cops are required to secure the item and bring it back to the army base".   

Ornate Bank and Country Bank Heist

There are two bank robbery capers that players can get involved in.  The Ornate Bank Heist involves breaking through a bank counter, unlocking a tough vault, and dropping off the money at a secure location.  The Country Bank Heist involves robbing a rural bank, get the cashier to open the vault, and getting to the safe house.  Both of these missions allow 16 cops and 4 criminals for participation. 

So, that is how the Heists DLC will play out, but what about the Holiday content?  The International Business Times reports a leaked screenshot that reveals that the Holiday DLC will feature Snowfall, CnC Bonus DLC, and RP bonuses for a limited amount of time.  The snowfall is a returning feature, and will definitely make San Andreas more fit for the holiday season. 

So far, there isn't any word on the release date of this GTA V Heists and Holidays DLC, but it will be available for the PS4, Xbox One, PS3, and Xbox 360.
