PlayStation France announced yesterday that a special edition "Grand Theft Auto V" PS4 Bundle will be released in Europe on Nov. 18. The company revealed the news along with the photos of the new offering, which comes in PS4 Black and PS4 Glacier White. Rockstar Games will officially launch "GTA V" on the same date.

IDigital Times reports that the Italian, German and Spanish Amazon sites already have listings put up. The German site has it for €499, while the Spanish site has it teeny-tiny bit higher, at €499.99. The best offer is from the Italian site, which attaches a €399 price tag to the bundle. A release for the U.S. is yet to be announced but fans outside Europe hope to have the bundle offer available near them.

With less than a month of waiting left, hefty information for the upcoming title is already swirling. Leaks evident of the Heist missions being integrated in the new game excite more and more fans. Domislive is a GTA enthusiast who, through IDigital Times, listed some possible achievements that will be included in the Heist updates.

In the list, players of "GTA V" may be able to "invest hard earned cash to set up a Heist, complete a Heist prep mission, complete a Heist finale without anyone dying, complete a Heist finale without taking any damage, as Heist Leader set the finale cut as 25% across all players, earn 5 gold medals across Heist preps and finales and earn 25 gold medals across Heist preps and finales."

Prep missions allow players to lay out plans before assault. Finale missions entail getting someone out of jail and robbing a bank. It is pretty elaborate as explained in the site. Missions such as the "Prison Break" entails getting some allies break out of jail; "Pacific Standard," a bank heist; and "Humane Labs Raid," which suggests storming into an animal research facility. All these follow a bronze, silver, or gold medal system.

Another important thing to note is the comeback of the Hydra jet in update 1.17 after being removed from the previous update. Changes will also include a first-person mode as well as new game plot lines.

Action-adventure video game "GTA V" will be available in PS 4 and Xbox One on Nov. 18 and will soon be playable in PC by Jan. 27 next year. It was already released for the PS3 and Xbox 360 on Sept. 17.
