GTA 5 will have unspecified PS4 exclusive

4.3
Sony announced on Monday that GTA 5 was headed to PS4, and Rockstar added afterward that it would also hit PC and Xbox One. SCEA marketing vice president John Koller confirmed to Kotaku that the PS4 version will have a certain something to make it the most appealing option.

"I don't think we announced anything publicly on that, but there will be," Koller said.

Koller revealed that the game's index rate - "the amount of people who purchase one platform or the other relative to the install base" - swung "well in PlayStation's favor" for the initial release of GTA V. That was thanks in part to a partnership with Rockstar which included cross-advertising efforts and hardware bundles.

"We would expect that to happen here, too," Koller said. "GTA is a PlayStation franchise. It started with us. We really feel strongly that it belongs as a key platform driver for us."

Koller was evasive about GTA 5's PS4-exclusive elements, saying that the game and the franchise will be "very special on PlayStation."

Rockstar has said the new-gen version will feature "across-the-board graphical and technical improvements to deliver a stunning new level of detail".

Gossip Hopefully its something thats really good and hopefully its not that expensive.


I don't think that it would be in their best interest to make whatever it is expensive.

Well i wont be buying it after hearing this, i already have it on 360, was going to get it on one but not now, how can this koller guy say "GTA is a PlayStation franchise. It started with us" when gta was released on both pc and playstation in 1997 and then on gameboy color in 1999! Sony is obviously scared and knows the underdog (xbox one) is ready to dominate the market like xbox always have. They have had the little bit of time in the lime light now its time for them and their fan boys to get knocked down a peg or two.

It has to be something pretty nice to entice people to buy it for PS4 rather than another console.

I really wonder what kind of special exclusive it will be. It mist be something big enough that it will actually make people buy for the Playstation. It has to be something even grater then just a special pack of weapons, clothes, and apartments, to really draw the crowd. I personally still won't be getting ti for the next gen consoles, unless there is some upgrade deal that makes it cheaper, I mean I already have it for the Xbox 360, why buy the same game twice?

GGMU- Its be a random new car/gun or a few new Online jobs. No one really cares. Im sick of this "we're better than you" fight Sony is fighting when Microsoft are rolling with exclusives instead of additional extras


They aren't trying to prove anything of how they're better than anyone else. They're making up for what they lost from PS3 vs 360 - and they've more than made it up at this point. They've completely destroyed the One, lmao
