'Our initial idea was to build on the concept of Story Mode heists to make a new gameplay experience for GTA Online that was more focused on cooperation, where everyone could play to their individual strengths and feel like they had a stake in the outcome.' Lots of obstacles prevented the heists from appearing sooner 'To be honest, they just turned out to be a lot more difficult than we originally thought,' he admits. While talking about the actual heists, Rockstar's GTA Online Producer and Lead Mission Designer Imran Sarwar reveals that the task of getting the heists to work with multiple players has been really challenging. Now, it seems that such a thing won't actually happen, as Rockstar confirms to IGN that a new release period is being targeted for the online heists, in the form of 'early 2015.' It has since issued a new release period for the online heists, claiming that they'll be introduced in GTA 5 across PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One as part of the first major update for the game. Many months passed since then and the studio also launched the title onto the PS4 and Xbox One, while working hard on the PC edition that's set to appear next month. Unfortunately, one of the standout features of the story campaign – the large heists – wasn’t available as standard in the multiplayer mode, although Rockstar promised that it would get them into the online experience as fast as possible. GTA 5 arrived for the PS3 and Xbox 360 back in September of last year, and right after it, via a free update, developer Rockstar Games brought forth the GTA Online multiplayer mode that allowed fans to roam the huge open world and engage in all sorts of crazy activities. Rockstar Games confirms that, due to even more work required from its team, the long-awaited multiplayer heists for the Grand Theft Auto 5 online mode are now set to appear in early 2015, and not as part of the first major update for the game across PS3, PS4, Xbox 360, and Xbox One platforms.
