Rockstar games today announced that it’s scheduled Grand Theft Auto V for worldwide release this spring. Preorders begin on Nov. 5. News of the spring release leaked yesterday, but this confirms it.

It claims that GTA V will be the biggest and most ambitious GTA game to date.
Rockstar Games founder Sam Houser said via press release, “Grand Theft Auto V builds on everything we’ve learned about open-world game design. We can’t wait to share it with fans.”
This announcement comes shortly after news that Hurricane Sandy forced publisher Take-Two Interactive to postpone their quarterly earnings report. Perhaps this will appease some of the guys in suits. If anything, gamers will be happy that GTA V finally has a release-date window.
Come spring 2013, Grand Theft Auto V will be available for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 (no word on the PC version). The release had no mention of a Wii U version, in case anyone was wondering.
