Rockstar continues to release updates for "Grand Theft Auto V" the recent being 1.18 for "GTA V Online." However, the contents of the next major update are believed to contain not only bug fixes but also the much-anticipated Heists. Reports claim Rockstar will release the 1.19 update patch soon in the first week of December.

Product Reviews claims Rockstar will stick to their usual pattern of releasing game updates on a Tuesday. Thus, the site believes the 1.19 update for "GTA V Online" will be launched on Dec. 2.

"We have seen other days chosen like Thursday, but there's still a clear pattern that has mostly focused on Tuesday, which is the next prospect in terms of next month," writer Daniel Chubb said.

Additionally, PR claims the update patch will not just bring in fixes to game problems or bugs but also the much-anticipated online Heists DLC. According to Aretheheiststhereyet it's been 428 days as of writing since "GTA Online was released and still no sign of the content. However, PR believes Rockstar will stick to its promise that the "next major update," being the 1.19 patch, will contain the DLC. The International Business Times adds the content could be released online before Christmas.

Rockstar also confirmed on its newswire that Heists will be the first "GTA V Online" DLC to be released following the launch of "Grand Theft Auto V" for the PS4 and Xbox One. The next-gen console version has since been released. Thus PR believes there's every reason to expect the 1.19 update to contain the DLC.

However, developers have yet to actually reveal an exact release date on the Heists DLC for "GTA V Online." Rockstar previously announced that details on the content's release will be revealed very soon and this was before the game was launched on the PS4 and Xbox One on Nov. 18.

"We know you're all excited for more Updates to come and we've got some really exciting stuff in the works to continue adding to, expanding and evolving the world of Grand Theft Auto Online - including the highly anticipated launch of Online Heists," Rockstar wrote on its newswire. Additionally, it's still uncertain whether the contents of the 1.19 update for "GTA V Online" would also include Heists. Rockstar has yet to announce a release date for the patch too.
