Rockstar Games’ co-founder and Grand Theft Auto V’s co-writer, Dan Houser has spilled the beans on the first GTA V multiplayer details.

“Multiplayer is an ever-more important part of all our games moving forward,” Houser told IGN. He went on to emphasize the role Social Club plays in solidifying the multiplayer experience across Rockstar’s franchises. He explained, “by creating crews through Social Club, the crews that you create in Max Payne 3 will be ready and available for you to play in Grand Theft Auto V from day one. It’s all part of our larger approach to make multiplayer deeper and richer than what’s currently available, much more easily accessible to the newcomer and rewarding for the hardcore.” He concluded by stating that Rockstar “made a promise not to talk too much about forthcoming games until a little further down the track but, yes, crews will feature in Grand Theft Auto V multiplayer.”
