What is it about the start of summer that Rockstar Games loves? For the past few years, they’ve been releasing games during the month of May, including big blockbusters like Red Dead Redemption, L.A. Noire and most recently Max Payne 3.
The trend might be continuing; following an investor call that reported the company shifted nearly $600 million in revenues from the fiscal year, it was stated by industry analyst Colin Sebastian that the game will probably release after the fiscal year came to a close, which is the end of March 2013.
That signals that Rockstar could be shooting once again for a blockbuster May release, an ideal period for summertime gamers and the perfect time to get started in a life of crime again. That’s not official mind you, but it makes sense from a business standpoint.
Once we have official confirmation on a release date from Rockstar, we’ll let you know. But don’t hesitate in getting your pre-orders in next week – this is gonna be huge.
