Take-Two CEO Denies That There Were Ever Plans for GTA V to Get Single Player DLC

But the executive apparently misspoke

by Ryan Oehrli Wed 20th May 2015

So, remember back when Rockstar Games said that Grand Theft Auto V would be getting some story-based DLC? Yeah, like a super long time ago? Turns out that never happened. Crazy, right? But when Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick was asked about any upcoming content in a recent earnings call, he seemed a bit dazed, saying: "No, we haven't discussed any story-based downloadable content. We did talk about the Heists and they've been released."

When the caller mentioned the initial plans for more story content, Zelnick said that he had no recollection. To its credit, Take-Two has issued a swift response, stating that its boss misspoke. "Rockstar Games had said that it is exploring story mode content for Grand Theft Auto V; however, no further information has been released since," a spokesperson said. So, er, what do you think? Are you still holding out for more Michael, Franklin, and Trevor? Just be honest in the comments section below.

I don't think they were planning it. I think they wanted GTA online to offer reasons for people to come back for more, selling those Shark Cash Cards and so on. But the install base is so big now, RockStar must be tempted to try and capitalize, even though, apparently the story-based dlc for GTA 4 didn't do that well for them.

I loved ballad of gay tiny. The story is gta5 is kind unfinished tbh would love more character development from franklin. Loved the small part gangs were in the start missions. Mebe franklin sets up groove street that would be awesome
