Grand Theft Auto V (GTA5) – Under Development, So Say “Sources”

So, it’s official, well sort of official, well as official as we can get at the moment. Yes Rockstar Games are working on the new Grand Theft Auto game as we all expected. Although this information was not actually announced by Rockstar Games, so as it stands it could be all bollocks, but I doubt it. GameSpot got the first scoop from a reliable source when Take-Two Interactive told them that the next instalment of the blockbuster is “well under way”. According to this reliable source is in the final stages of development and is having the final touches like mini-games put into the game.

Apparently the game may be due for a 2012 release if all goes to plan, but don’t hold your breath as Grand Theft Auto is a vast game,
"It's the big one," they said. So this could mean we may not get the new one until 2013 but that seems unlikely given the success and release patterns of the previous games.

According to the GameSpot sources, the new game may be set in a Los Angeles style city as there have been reports that talent agencies have received recent casting calls for a motley crew of California-esk characters. But as always Rockstar games are keeping a tight lid on the whole project and refuse to comment on the casting calls, the game’s setting, or even whether the a new Grand Theft Auto is even in development.

What we can be sure of though is that there will be a new GTA, given how popular the previous instalments in the series were, and how Rockstar games & Take-Two announced in March 2011 that Grand Theft Auto 4 had sold nearly 20 million copies. Meaning it has earned itself a place within the best selling games of all time list. So we can see why Rockstar games are being all hush hush about the new GTA 5, hell wouldn’t you be if you had that kind of a reputation to live up too.
