Some fans might be disappointed to know that the latest entry in Rockstar’s highly successful Grand Theft Auto series has been delayed. Grand Theft Auto V’s new release date is September 17, 2013 for Xbox 360 & Playstation 3.
Rockstar apologized and let it’s fans know that the game is going to be worth the wait. You can read the full announcement below…
Dear all
Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013.
We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.
To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.
Yours,
The GTA Team
