Alright spring games, you may now breathe a sigh of relief. Today Rockstar announced that Grand Theft Auto 5 would be pushed back to September to allow time to polish the game. The game will now launch on September 17th, which should make it one of the last huge releases of this current generation.

Rockstar released a statement on the delay.

“We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.”

“To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.”
