Dear all,
Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013.
We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.
To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.
Yours,
The GTA Team

Takes the piss. Its been postponed so many times now, when I get excited that it's getting closer it moves further away.
Re: Gta V actual release date....
I was so looking foward to the release in spring, that's why I pre-ordered it so early. Now my poster I got lies ):
Re: Gta V actual release date....
I think they meant Spring in a southern hemispherical way. I'll just keep telling myself that.

It's all marketing strategies...what do people want the most...what they can't have...drag it out and the desire becomes stronger...
Re: Gta V actual release date....
Its better they delay it, and get it right. Then don't, and end up releasing a premature product which could taint the games overall image and ruin sales.
Re: Gta V actual release date....
They say its worth the wait, so maybe they are adding some more epic features!
Re: Gta V actual release date....
You don't delay a game to add extra features, cause you can release those as DLC and make even more money. They're delaying it because they're behind in development. Let's hope they severely make up for it in DLC!

Can you say San andreas Hot coffee? They just might not trust their own developers anymore and want to make sure there's nothing inside to get it pulled from shelves again.

+1111111111...so tired of waiting.....I would be pissed if I had pre-purchased it and got a "lying" poster....I'd want my money back lol
Re: Gta V actual release date....
I was really disappointed when I found out it's being released in September, because you know its that "back to school" time, well college for me. I had planned to enjoy playing GTA 5 during the summer when I have nothing to do, looks like it won't be like that now!

Re: Gta V actual release date....
They have been delaying wayy to many times. I think that many consumers will be unhappy and get hooked to other games :P
I really wish they hadn't delayed it tho, I really want to play it.
It better be as good as everyone think's it will be.

Re: Gta V actual release date....
I was pretty pissed when I first saw it on their newswire. The hell am I supposed to do during the summer now? Go outside? Pfft.
