A 'mysterious' press release claiming to announce Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 2 has sent the internet into overdrive.
It's a fake.
The
obviously inept press release claims that the game would take place
seven years after the original San Andreas game, and feature the same
voice actor in the lead part.
Unfortunately the game doesn't exist. It's the work, it seems, of a recent but notoriously rubbish gaming website.
The press release is below for your perusal, scorn and eventual dismay.
"NEW
YORK, NY – Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 2 has finally been confirmed
this week after Rockstar made the surprising announcement at the
Playstation Experience event in Las Vegas, the day after The Game
Awards. The game will take place in 1999, 7 years after the events of
San Andreas. CJ will return as the main character, again being voiced by
DJ Pooh.
During a brief gameplay demonstration shown to a select
few journalists at the event, single player mode was shown off on the
Playstation 4 console. Several elements that players will be making a
return.
Like the first game, players can eat at Cluckin’ Bell and
get fat, then work it all off at the gym and put on some muscle. With
next gen graphics the results can be humorous and disturbing at the same
time.
Players can again recruit and lead members of their gang to
aid in crimes, or just to hang out and shoot some hoops. This time
around, basketball games can be played for money. If you lose and decide
not to pay up, your gang members may turn on you.
Several
celebrities will voice characters in the game including rappers Kendrick
Lamar, Schoolboy Q, Ice Cube, and actors such as Kevin Hart, Larenz
Tate, and Mike Epps.
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas 2 is set to arrive on PS4, Xbox One, and PC in 2016"
