Only a few more months, but could you wait longer for a PC release?
A recentRockstar Leeds job posting, since deleted butchronicled by Rockstar Watch, put out a call for programmers to help “bring [their] latest titles to the PC platform.”
“Rockstar Leeds are currently looking for a talented graphics programmer to help bring our latest titles to the PC platform. Working together with the other Rockstar studios, you will be responsible for maintaining the studio’s uncompromising quality bar, delivering the highest quality PC experience possible.”
Rockstar Leeds was previously known for its handheld ports of Rockstar games, as well as the development of theGrand Theft Auto: Chinatown Warsspin off series. Most recently, Rockstar Leeds developed the PC version ofL.A. Noire. The latter, coupled with the recent job posting, could lend support to those hoping for a PC version of the undoubtedly sprawlingGrand Theft Auto V,which just yesterdaygot a hefty gameplay trailer.
Rockstar has obviously shown the PC more love in recent years, including the recent, excellently done PC release ofMax Payne 3. That trend seems to be continuing, with Rockstar Leeds acting as a big part of it. The job posting also said something about “working with skilled developers on Next Generation games,” which could hint at a plan for healthy PC support into the future. Or maybe PS4 and Xbox One ports ofGrand Theft Auto V?
While nothing has been officially announced as to a PC release ofGTAV, it wouldn’t unhead of; PC releases ofGrand Theft Autogames typically come within a year of the console release. This recent job posting might hint at something sooner. How long can you wait? Or can you not wait any longer at all?
