GTA 5 will not be shown at Gamescom
But a spokesperson for Gamescom has told CVG that the Grand Theft Auto V footage was included "in error".
Franko Fischer, communications manager of Gamescom's organising body Koelnmesse, said "Rockstar Games is not scheduled and has never been scheduled to exhibit at Gamescom 2012".
He said that all GTA V footage has now been removed from the Gamescom trailer.
"We apologise for any confusion this may have caused," he added.
Fischer was nevertheless upbeat about the show's appeal to the games market. He said there would be numerous world premieres and surprise reveals at the show.
"Although GTA 5 won't be at the show, I think we will once again have the most spectacular world premieres set for the events," he added.
About seven months have passed since Rockstar sent shockwaves across the industry with a surprise GTA 5 trailer.
Since then, aside from two GTA V screenshots, there has been little information on the new project.
Gamescom begins August 15th and runs throughout the week.

why do you say that?
Why wouldn't I say that?
It looks like an amazing game and I was hopeing to see at Gamescom..
true, but i think it makes the anticipation for this game more built up, which means more profits for Rockstar!
Yeah i would keep it a secret, people will be more and more curious
yep that's what they're probably trying to do, not let much information out to the public
..then when the full game is out, everything will be new and fresh. Unlike COD, releasing everything before the game is even out.
Yeah but it's also good to know what features are going to be included in the game.
Yeah but they don't want to spoil TOO much, that woul ruin it.

that's true, but anticipation always reels in the cash. i think that the only company that ISN'T money hungry would be Rockstar.
