Rockstar Games published an update for what’s to come in Grand Theft Auto this morning. It includes confirmation that the next game in the franchise is currently under development.
I won’t waste any of your time and get right to it:
With the unprecedented longevity of GTAV, we know many of you have been asking us about a new entry in the Grand Theft Auto series. With every new project we embark on, our goal is always to significantly move beyond what we have previously delivered — and we are pleased to confirm that active development for the next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series is well underway. We look forward to sharing more as soon as we are ready, so please stay tuned to the Rockstar Newswire for official details.
