"Rumours surrounding Rockstar’s potential mega-hit GTA V have once again surfaced, as 2012 is referred to by analysts and experts as the likeliest release date.
With casting calls hinting at characters, actors and locations, rumours regarding GTA V have been rife, but no solid info has emerged and with Rockstar remaining tight-lipped, it seems unlikely we’ll hear anything until the project is good and ready.
A 2012 release date seems premature given no info has yet emerged. When you take a step back and review all the facts, the only salient point is that a new GTA, on current tech, wouldn’t push the series enough to warrant the name. With Red Dead Redemption and L.A. Noire innovating, we could find ourselves waiting for the next-gen until GTA V is truly deliverable. And that makes us happy.
Rockstar are notorious for developing and releasing games on their own schedule. Its absence from E3 is, amazingly, not that unusual and though we’ve beecome used to the publisher developing and focusing on one title at a time, a new GTA in 2012 isn’t as far fetched as you might think.

Here’s what’s been rumoured already:
- GTA V could potentially be set in Hollywood, or Vinewood as it is in the game. This would most likely extend to L.A. itself and potentially northen California.
- Potential character lists reveal a penchant for FBI agents, cult leaders, swingers and even soccer moms.
- Some sources are claiming that GTA V is well underway and could be as far along as the testing stages.
- Is GTA V codenamed RUSH? It’s a name that’s bee rumoured to in development at Rockstar. Few know that GTA IV for most of its development was called FROZEN, so RUSH could well be what Rockstar refer to GTA V as internally.
It all sounds very interesting I will keep this story updated as I find out more information
