With all the excitement surrounding the first trailer released for Grand Theft Auto V, nobody actually knew the release date for the game. Analysts suggest the game could be out as early as June 2012.
From a report on CVG, Industry Gamers say the game is likely to be released as early as May or June “to steal everyone’s attention” before E3 2012.
National Alliance Capital Markets’ Mike Hickey said: “We believe Rockstar Games is modelling a four to six month marketing window for their upcoming GTA V release, suggesting a summer ’12 launch period.”
Grand Theft Auto IV’s first trailer was released around six month’s before the game was due for release in November 2007. However, we all know the game got delayed and was eventually released in April 2008 instead.
Judging from the trailer, it appears as if Rockstar North have been hard at work at the game for several years and it looks highly likely it could be out in mid-2012.
