Sony kicked off its PlayStation 5 reveal event on Thursday with the announcement that Rockstar Games’ seminal open-world blockbuster Grand Theft Auto V will be releasing for the next-gen console in the second half of 2021.
The game was first released for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 consoles back in 2013 at the end of the sixth generation of consoles. GTA V was shortly thereafter ported over to the new generation, the PlayStation 4 and the Xbox One. It’s one of the bestselling games of all time behind only Minecraft, and its online mode continues to be a huge moneymaker for Rockstar and parent company Take-Two Interactive.
