Rockstar job listing tips GTA 5 PC port

4.5
Rockstar is unwilling to discuss the prospect of bringing Grand Theft Auto 5 to PC, but a recent job listing hints at the firm working on a port.


A recently-posted job listing for Rockstar Leeds called for a 'graphic programmer' that would work to "help bring our latest titles to the PC platform".

Perhaps even more interestingly, the vacancy post has been swiftly removed by Rockstar, but not before PC Gamer grabbed the full description, which read:

"Rockstar Leeds are currently looking for a talented graphics programmer to help bring our latest titles to the PC platform. Working together with the other Rockstar studios, you will be responsible for maintaining the studio's uncompromising quality bar, delivering the highest quality PC experience possible."

The firm's "latest titles" that are yet to appear on PC include GTA 5 and Red Dead Redemption - the latter of which is now over three years old, and would seem the less likely candidate for a PC port in 2013.

According to the post, the position would also require "working with skilled developers on Next Generation games", which is another area the firm has avoided discussing with regards to GTA 5.

In a recent Q&A, Rockstar said, "We don't have anything to share about the possibility of a next-gen or a PC platform release at this time and we are completely focused on delivering the best possible experience for the consoles people have right now."

Despite this, a PC version of Grand Theft Auto 5 was listed by the German arm of Amazon, as well as a second European retailer.

The GTA 5 release date has been confirmed as September 17 worldwide.

Rockstar released the first GTA 5 gameplay video earlier today, offering he first glimpse of both single and multiplayer gameplay.

Metro_2033 I hope they cancel this, I don't want mods thank you very much.


Why? How does it hurt your gaming experience? Stop being such an ass.


People will port pc mods to console somehow it's so annoying on gta iv when some ******* is modding and abusing the lobby, some modders are cool but most are *****.


You understand that the mods are designed on pc. It doesn't need a pc port.


You clearly didn't read what I wrote, I said people will port PC mods to CONSOLE


And you clearly didn't read what he wrote. Just because it's not on the PC, doesn't mean ****. It can still be modded.


You're **** retarded. I didn't say anything about something can't be modded.


No, you're **** retarded. He stated that just because the game isn't on PC, doesn't mean that mods won't be created on there. (All mods that are available on console are not created by ANYONE that actually has the game on PC). - Mods by PC gamer's are actually good, you're stupid.

Wart I don't think it would come to PC if they haven't already announced it but I don't see why not to be honest...


They dont make as much money because a lot of PC gamers pirate I think


All the other gta's have come to pc, but they always release on console first.
