Grand Theft Auto 5, the immensely popular Rockstar game, has announced its official release date. The company has also provided a number of details pertaining to the gameplay, and many outlets are already reporting that the game is on track to break a number of records.
GTA5 is one of the most anticipated games of 2013. Finally, a release date has been confirmed by the gaming company, Rockstar.
The game, which was originally set to release in the Spring, faced a setback or two. Now, the popular series will be releasing their fifth installment on September 17.
CVG, one of the world’s most credible gaming experts, claims that the newest GTA title will be the fastest selling game in UK history. If that is in fact the case, Rockstar will be unseating the Call of Duty series, who currently holds that award.
While little is known about the upcoming game, some information has leaked to the press. Here is the info we know now:
Users can plan heists in high-detail, including the way they fight off the police. The shooting system has evolved and has been compared by many outlets to one found in Max Payne 3.
The police have also evolved and are using more advanced tactics to eliminate renegade players. A spokesman for the company said that, “police will use advanced driving tactics or seek higher ground for better visibility to take you down while on foot.”
This ultra-realistic approach to gameplay has garnered some criticism from groups who believe games induce real-world violence.
Regardless of their dissent, the game is sure to be one of this fall’s biggest sellers. It will be available on both the Xbox and PlayStation consoles.
