Rockstar 'completely focused on current-gen versions of GTA V'

4.7
Rockstar Games has addressed questions about whether Grand Theft Auto 5 will be released on next-generation consoles and PC.

Speaking in a Q&A post found on the official Rockstar Games website, the developer states it is focusing its attention on the current-gen versions.

"The only versions of the game that we have announced are for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 which are set for a September 17th worldwide release," it says.

"We don't have anything to share about the possibility of a next-gen or a PC platform release at this time and we are completely focused on delivering the best possible experience for the consoles people have right now."

Although speculation that GTA 5 will also be released on Xbox One and PS4 has been rampant, Rockstar hasn't officially commented on next-gen versions. Similarly, it has not discussed the status of a PC version.

However, a PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5 was listed by the German arm of Amazon, as well as a second European retailer.

CVG sources have indicated that GTA 5 is set to break UK sales records. Take-Two will reportedly allocate three million copies for the UK alone, giving it scope to outstrip the fastest selling UK game ever, Call of Duty: Black Ops.

The GTA 5 release date has been confirmed as September 17 worldwide.

xCeeTee PC has to get GTA V, everybody knows it will. I couldn't care if next-gen do or not, but I'd prefer it does as I'd be getting the PS4 and I don't particularly want all my saves and stuff on the 360 and having to switch to play it.


PC will get GTA

As much as i can't wait for this game to be released.... it's such as waste; just imagine what they could have achieved by having it on the next generation of consoles. Hopefully they bring it out on the next generation consoles in the future.

I kinda think they have set a release date for this game way to late, it comes out on my birthday (17th September) thats 2 months before the xbox one is released. there is no way ill be able to take my time exploring this game and all its accolades before the xbox one comes out :(

I wish they had a clear 'yes' or 'no' to if it will be on the new consoles or not. I know I don't want to pay for it twice if I want it on the Xbox One, but I also don't want to wait for nothing if they don't decide to release it.
