Grand Theft Auto 5 ‘Leaks’ Surface: Multiple Protagonists, 32-Player Multiplayer

March 26, 2012 by Jacob Saylor

A number of leaks have surfaced for GTA5, revealing multiple protagonists—if it’s true.

Apparently, because you don’t belong to a company anymore, you are immune to their NDA clause(s) – at least, according to one of Rockstar North’s former employees. He diffused a huge amount of information to his “friend”, who in turn released it to the wilds of the internet, via the Gamespot forums. While you can find the entire post – which is now deleted on the Gamespot forums – over at RipTen.com, we’ve picked out a few nuggets for you to check out.
These come directly from the source material:

“1. The protagonist will be one character, and one character alone. His name is (as some rumours said) Albert De Silva. He’s a half hispanic man who was once part of a crime family in Vice City. He decided to settle down and have kids in Los Santos. He has one son called Kevin De Silva who is your stereotypical CoD player. He’s lazy, useless and shouts racial abuse online and is really into FPS games. Kevin does admire his Dad though.”

“2. Multiplayer will hold 32 people on the Xbox and PS3. I wasn’t told how many were able to be on the PC. Just like in RDR, players will be able to form Gangs. These gangs are not ranked through XP anymore, but via Reputation. Instead of gang hideouts, you can do jobs that range from robbing a launderette to breaking into a military base and stealing state-of-the-art weaponary. The Gang leader has much more control over his or her gang by being able to rank members of their gang and setting more specific objectives to specific members of their gang. Gangs can have their own terratory but this only applies to areas inside the city of Los Santos.”

“3. The map is about 5x as large as the GTA IV map and the City of Los Santos takes up just under half of this area (so it’s a bit bigger than 2 GTA IV Liberty Cities).
The map is (like most GTAs) seperated into three different sections.”

“4. Planes are flyable, they range from World War 2 fighter planes to Private Jets.”

According to the leak, the game is due out in May 2013, and a playable demo will be present at E3 2012. Check back here at Gameranx for any further updates.
