'GTA V' Online Heists PC Release Date News: Rockstar to Launch New Windows Version & DLC

The fifth installment of 'Grand Theft Auto' is expected to be released to avid PC gamers on January 27, 2015 by Rockstar Games, who also promised to reveal "GTA Online Heists" DLC early this year. However, it seems that a leak has provided some information earlier than anticipated, and 'GTA' fans are soaking it up.

The leak provides codes for cheats and new missions that will be on the "Heists" DLC. These codes have been deciphered by a YouTube account holder for the latest edition of the game.

One of the codes pertains to a mission involving a bank robbery in the Los Santos neighborhood. Another code permits a gamer to contact a host player in the game. Yet another leaked code is a cheat in which a player can be pointed in the direction of the nearest AI units in the game.

The current codes are part one of number two in a string of leaks surrounding "GTA Online Heists." Fans are still waiting in anticipation to try out the PC version of 'GTA V', which will be available for Microsoft Windows. On that note, it will include a mod in which gamers can alter the graphics of the game.

Rockstar Games has been quiet about the details of the PC version, although a trailer was released months ago that showed a new batch of cars and character masks. Screenshots can be found all over the web, showing ships, aircraft, and buses, as well as bank heists and snipers.

Rumor has it that the cooperation of the entire team will be imperative in completing missions successfully. The new leaked codes may indeed help gamers out when taking on a mission and spotting different locations.
