Rockstar Games announced today that the next title update for GTA Online (1.05) addressing player progress loss issues will be available early next week. After this, the developer said “we hope” to be able to deliver the GTA$ Stimulus Package by the end of the week.

“A big thank you to GTA Online players worldwide for your continued patience and understanding and we will continue to keep you all updated,” Rockstar said.

When Rockstar originally announced the $500,000 of in-game cash for players (to be delivered in two deposits of $250,000) earlier this month, the company said it would not dole out the money until the game was stable.

Grand Theft Auto V has shipped 29 million copies to date, though it is unclear how many have been sold to consumers.
