Rockstar Games confirms rumors of Spring 2013 launch.
Earlier today, UK retailer GAME had let the cat out of the bag on the launch window for Rockstar Games' hotly anticipated Grand Theft Auto V. A tweet from one of its branches urged consumers to come on down and pre-order the game now, while also showing a picture of some promotional material.
News on Grand Theft Auto V was expected in November anyway, but with two leaks of this kind in the past three days, Rockstar may have been forced to officially confirm the release window today.
"Today, we're proud to announce that Grand Theft Auto V is expected to launch worldwide spring 2013 for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3," Rockstar Games confirmed.
"Starting next week November 5, 2012, Grand Theft Auto V will become available for pre-order everywhere and fans can expect a host of new information to become available in November."
Developed by series creator Rockstar North, Grand Theft Auto V takes place in a re-imagined, present-day Southern California in the largest and most thriving game-world we have ever created set in the sprawling city of Los Santos and for miles beyond – from the tops of the mountains to the depths of the ocean.
