Development[]
This is the first game in the series not to be developed by Finnish game developer Remedy Entertainment and not being written by series creator Sam Lake. The game was originally scheduled for release in late 2009, however, it was pushed back to 2010 alongside several other Take-Two Interactive franchises in order to "benefit from having more development time.". In June 2010, the game was again pushed back to 2011.
On December 21, it was not present on the 2011-2012 calendar year, and was pushed back again. The game is still in development and not canceled or indefinitely halted when Rockstar released two new screenshots for the game.
On September 8, 2011 Rockstar announced a March 2012 release date for the game, with a trailer to be released on September 14.
The game was pushed again to May 15 2012, and was finally released to the consoles.
Setting and Plot[]
The story of the game is set 8 years prior to the game's release. The location is Sao Paulo in Brazil.
