GTA 5 gets ‘provisional release date’ for PS4 and Xbox one

Rockstar Games hasn't yet announced the release date for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One editions of Grand Theft Auto 5, but it's looking more and more likely that the blockbuster title could makes its way to the next-gen systems this November.

Over on Twitter, the Croydon-based GAME retailer teased a "provisional release date" of November 1st for GTA 5. Looking at the ol' calendar, you may notice that date is a Saturday, meaning it's likely not correct (hence, the use of the word "provisional). However, it does suggest that a November release could be on the table for GTA 5's next-gen release.

We have good news for you #PS4 and #XboxOne players…GTA 5 has a provisional release date. Want to know when it is? :-p I might tell ya 😉

In a later tweet, the retailer added they are hoping a more official release date would be confirmed soon. On the plus side, a provisional date usually signifies that an announcement is likely coming soon.

For its part, Rockstar Games officially lists Grand Theft Auto 5 for release on PS4, Xbox One and PC this fall.
