Rockstar is hard at work on Grand Theft Auto V, with a 2012 release "pretty likely".
That's according to "sources close to" the developer, who reportedly told GameSpot that development is "well under way", with final touches like mini-games already being applied.
Click to view larger image "It's the big one," they also said of the game, noting that GTA V's scale is vast. Repeated rumours suggest the game will be set in real world Los Angeles.
The evidence is certainly building towards a reveal for GTA V anytime soon. The first signs of the game crept online in February via an actor's CV, and were quickly followed by some suspicious Rockstar-registered URLs.
Evidence from as far back as December suggests that the game is being codenamed 'Rush' and features characters including a "Welsh monk/cult leader/yoga teacher", a "weed evangelist", a "swinger" and - top of the pops - "an ugly but comfortable mellow Californian divorcee". Hmmm. 'Rush'. Which city immediately springs to mind when you hear that phrase?

When I think of Rush, I think of Canada. I can dream can't I?

Why would GTA V come out now? Would've thought they'd do at least one spin off in Vice City/San Andreas (probably both tbh) with the GTA IV engine before GTA V.

I'm cool with one GTA per console cycle, honestly. There's only so much you can do with the series at this point, and more power = better physics = more things happening on screen = more chaos.

I honestly don't know if I can go back to GTA after Red Dead Redemption. It was just such an epic game from start to finish. GTA IV, when I've played it recently, has really just made me want to play Red Dead again.

I doubt it'd be set in LA, but an expanded Los Santos seems likely. Maybe a redone San Andreas? Hopefully.

So stoked for info on GTA V, whenever that may be.

I hated GTA IV, loved RDR. I hope they expand on the cool stuff they did in RDR/

This game damn well better be coming out in 2012. GTA IV was a great game, but it really left me wanting more. I have a strong feeling that GTA V is going to be epic.

Wooohoooo! I love LA. I was hoping for that all along.

Hopefully the soundtrack will be better than GTA IV.

Hopefully the soundtrack will be better than GTA IV. Yeah, I'm not gonna lie, the soundtrack for GTA IV was quite disappointing. The idea of it taking place in a real world L.A. sounds cool, but I need this game to take place in Vice City and the 80s. You can't go wrong with a real world 80s Miami.
