A supposedly leaked image suggesting that Grand Theft Auto 5 will release before 2013 is not genuine, CVG understands. Grand Theft Auto V release date rumours have been abundant ever since the game was first announced in November last year.The latest speculation was triggered by a purportedly leaked screenshot of Rockstar's info page that suggested the crime opus would be released before Christmas. But CVG has been informed that the image has been doctored by a third-party and includes misleading information. In July, Rockstar released a statement on the persistent GTA 5 release date rumours and stated that the company is not going to comment on every single rumour. "There is going to be no shortage of non-stop hoaxes, faked footage and screens, rampant rumours and speculation," the company said at the time. "As a rule, we are not going to get into the game of confirming or denying each of these as they happen as there is simply too much of it. Half of them we don't even understand." On Wednesday, CVG readers voted GTA V as their most anticipated game to close the current generation, followed closely by Kojima Productions' Metal Gear Solid: Ground Zeroes.
