Fans of GTA have been waiting for the new installment for some time. The previous installment – GTA V – started rolling out to video game platforms in September of 2013. In the meantime, gamers have been kept busy with Grand Theft Auto Online and its expansive multiplayer experience. A trailer for the new game had been released in recent months, giving gamers hope that it would be available soon. With Friday’s announcement, players will have to wait at least a year.
