Grand Theft Auto VGrand Theft Auto V, Rockstar issued a press release today (Thursday) confirms what we thought: GTA 5 will be established in the city of Los Santos “and surrounding hills, the countryside and beaches.” It looks like we have to go back to San Fierro and Las Venturas another day.

“A bold new direction in the open world freedom, storytelling, based on missions and online multiplayer, Grand Theft Auto V focuses on the pursuit of the almighty dollar in a re-imagined, the current Southern California,” said Rockstar.

No word yet on whether the protagonist is, in fact, our friend Claude old.

Rockstar makes its debut trailer for Grand Theft Auto V talk yesterday, and the 1:24 short video says it all. Well, maybe not the volume, but at least a good few chapters. Like everyone else, pored over the images in an effort to answer two major questions about the game: where is established, and we can play as? The answer to the first question seems simple enough,
Following the release of the game trailer debut yesterday, Rockstar has released a Grand Theft Auto V news and provided some pieces of information about the project.

Much of what was suggested in the trailer has been confirmed – the game takes place in Los Angeles city of inspiration, as in San Andreas, called Los Santos. It is described as a “re-imagined, California south today,” which includes some of the surrounding Los Angeles, namely, the “surrounding hills, the scenery and beaches.”

Not that I necessarily expect the function to be dropped, but GTA V will bring online multiplayer. If you come in the same way that GTA IV does not say, we only know the game’s head in a “bold new direction in the open world freedom, storytelling, based on missions and online multiplayer.”

Each of the last two numbered entries marked a big change for the series; III took the game into a third person in the world in 3D and IV took the series into a more serious direction. Judging solely by the trailer, which looked as if things were changing dramatically, but it takes more than a single trailer to definitively say things one way or another. At least for the purposes of today’s press release, Rockstar is suggesting another big change is in store for the franchise.

“Grand Theft Auto V is another radical reinvention Grand Theft Auto universe,” said Rockstar founder Sam Houser. “We are very excited to share our new vision with our fans.”

We have received no indication of when the game is out. Another statement from Rockstar, Max Payne 3 is coming out in March and publisher Take-Two is likely to want to put some space between the two. In April or May of the last three years Rockstar has had a major release – GTA IV, Red Dead Redemption, and LA Noire – and it’s quite possible that GTA V will be aligned with this pattern, again. There is a theory that a track on the release date was hidden in the trailer, a for sale sign indicates the number “2405”, which has been interpreted as a release date of May 24. It seems a good guess, just that day is Thursday, not Tuesday, so it’s unlikely a release date.
