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.
