A new GTA game is “well underway”, Rockstar confirms
Rockstar Games has confirmed that the “next entry in the Grand Theft Auto series is well underway”. While the news is surely unsurprising given both the series’ longevity so far and the astonishing success of 2013’s Grand Theft Auto V – which, as of November 2021, has sold 155 million copies – it does mean we now have official confirmation that the next GTA is in the works, whatever it might be.
