GRAND THEFT AUTO V

GTA (Grand Theft Auto) released a new official trailer

Grand Theft Auto V (also known as Grand Theft Auto 5, GTA V or GTA 5) is the name of the newest Grand Theft Auto game, announced by Rockstar Games on October 25, 2011. GTA 5 is expected to launch on September 17th, 2013. iGTA5.com is a dedicated GTA 5 fan site keeping you up to date with all the latest news and facts.

The acclaimed video game franchise is gathering its strength for the fifth release in the series, which goes into the wild on the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 on September 17. As usual, it promises to be bigger and better than previous iterations, as GTA V will tell the story of “three very different criminals” that go by the name of Michael, Franklin and Trevor who will “plot their own chances of survival and success.” Judging by their previous work, we tend to agree – by all means we can just imagine the future vastness of the open world concept they implemented.

The action will take place in the familiar city of Los Santos that is being described by Rockstar as a “sprawling metropolis full of self-help gurus, starlets and fading celebrities struggling to stay afloat in an era of economic uncertainty and cheap cable TV.”

GTA V’s multiplayer feature will allow up to 16 players to engage in a wide variety of activities such as bank heists and races. The multiplayer service will be available starting October 1, 2013. We also expect the PC version and the ones for the Xbox One and PS 4 to be in the works, due for a timely 2014 release.

Rolling Stone had a chance to sit down with soundtrack supervisor Ivan Pavlovich and get some insight to the creation of GTA V's soundtrack including a snippet that the game has "somewhere in the proximity of 20 movies worth of score" which accompanies players outside of vehicle radios. It was created by noted composer Tangerine Dream in collaboration with Woody Jackson (Red Dead Redemption, Max Payne 3, LA Noire) and L.A. hip-hop producers Alchemist and Oh No.

Rockstar describes the soundtrack as such:

Designed to encompass the breadth of the modern L.A. music scene, GTAV's soundtrack features 15 music stations, two stations of talk radio and 240 licensed songs - covering everything from unforgettable classic hip-hop with long-time Rockstar collaborator DJ Pooh, to the underground Mexican sounds of East LOS FM and the modern beatmaker scene courtesy of FlyLo FM, with new and exclusive tracks from both Flying Lotus and self-confessed GTA fan Tyler the Creator.
