Even though the launch of Grand Theft Auto V next week will be huge, an even bigger world will open up on October 1st with the supplementary Grand Theft Auto Online, which will be offered as a free download with purchase. With this game, users can interact with one another, joining up in groups and battling it out, or racing in competitive events.
The world being created for the Online game is set to be huge, but according to Rockstar North president Leslie Benzies, there’s massive room for expansion.
Speaking with Game Informer, Benzies stated that the team’s goal is to “create an entire Grand Theft Auto world that consists of everything we’ve done or are going to do, then let the player freely move between them.”
The game that releases on October 1st is simply “a beginning,” according to Benzies. “We’ve always wanted to create a world with the complexity of a single-player Grand Theft Auto game with the addition of real players. We wanted a world where people could spend years without getting bored of playing the same content over and over. I think we’ve managed to achieve something very close to our dream.”
Expect new locations to be added “all the time,” with “no limitations.”
