We are very excited to let you know now that in early December, we will release the first trailer for the next Grand Theft Auto. We look forward to many more years of sharing these experiences with all of you.

Thank you,

    I hate that you’re right. Because that’s what gaming is boiled down to today. How to maximize day 1 profit, no need for down the line customer enjoyment

      I wouldn’t be so sad about it. That’s just what happens with AAA games. I cite Cyberpunk (which honestly great in CDPR for how much post-launch work they’ve put in, but we gotta admit it was launched when it was as a means to pull in profit fast), every modern Fifa or CoD or Madden. Diablo 4 has been the king of this crime.

      On the other hand you have amazing games being pushed out by indie devs, or smaller franchises within those big publishers. Hell, doesn’t even need to be either of those, Nintendo still puts out mega-hyped high quality games like Super Mario Wonder or BoTW/TotK.

      BG3 probably game of the decade btw.
