Rockstar and 2K Games won't have show floor booths at the June event

Grand Theft Auto V won't make an appearance at E3, publisher Take-Two has confirmed.

Nor will The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, WWE 2K14 or any of the publisher's other games, as Take-Two labels Rockstar and 2K Games won't have a public presence at the event.

Take-Two president Karl Slatoff said last night on the company's fiscal year results call (via Seeking Alpha): "I'd now like to take a moment to discuss the upcoming E3 show in Los Angeles. This year, our labels will not have a booth on the show floor.

"Both Rockstar Games and 2K have instead decided to focus their marketing and PR efforts on a series of events throughout the spring and summer. Our team, however, will be present at the show, and we look forward to seeing many of you there."

Slatoff added: "So our philosophy on the show is that we like the show, we participate in a meaningful way in the show. It's a great place for the industry to get together, and we're highly supportive of it. This year it just didn't make sense for us in the same - at the same level."
