Attention all Grand Theft Auto fans, there are some less than reputable characters out there trying to take advantage of your love for Rockstar’s open-world creations.
Following whispers about a beta for GTA 5 on the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One, Rockstar has confirmed that it will not release a “test” version of the game prior to launch.
“Please note: There is no pre-release ‘beta’ test for Grand Theft Auto 5,” the developer’s statement reads. “If you see ads or solicitations to join a beta program, beware as this is likely some type of online phishing scam.”
In terms of phishing scams, an offer of a GTA 5 beta is quite tempting and it is understandable that one would hope it to be true. But it’s not, so you will all have to wait 18 November 2014 for the PS4 and Xbox One version, and 27 January 2015 to play on PC.
