GTA 5: Time between visual Tease and Release

It’s always best to wait for something official from game publishers and developers, especially when it comes to the GTA 5 release date, although the way Rockstar has teased us and left a few hints is only pushing the gamer to analyze the latest rumors.

Some GTA 5 suggestions over the last few weeks have stemmed from Rockstar looking for new people to join its creative team, and these positions might confuse some gamers, although what really changed things from the gamer perspective is the now confirmed Max Payne 3 launch date. This pushed GTA 5 out of the month of May, it was dreaming a little to think the game could come this soon, and now means that we should expect GTA 5 before April next year if Take-Two want a release in that financial year.

How much patience do you have for the Grand Theft Auto V release date? While May is one of the favorite months for record sales, Red Dead Redemption, most gamers would buy GTA 5 no matter the month it releases in and the current following should mean record sales in almost any month. There is a divide between fans, which includes those that impatiently want the game this year no matter what and then those that say “take your time Rockstar” so it’s 100% ready.

From trailer to release – There is a growing assumption that we could be waiting until 2013 for GTA 5, but this is flawed if we think about the time between their official trailer and a release date. We want the game as good as it can be when released, nothing is perfect, but would it be a marketing mistake to leave a 15-month gap between the trailer and launch?

If it’s true that the time between trailer and release would never be that long, then we should be thinking around October for GTA 5 to make its appearance in stores. If we’re to bet on a month following the Max Payne 3 news and the date they showed the GTA 5 trailer, then we would say you could expect the next Grand Theft Auto game in October/November this year.
