On 2 July 2013, Rockstar [http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/50871/asked-answered-gtav.html answered several gamers' questions] through a news article. In this article, they confirmed the following:
:*The ability to switch to any protagonist at any time when not in a mission, as well as missions that involve multiple protagonists
:*Using one protagonist to "kill" another would result similarly to a protagonist "dying" in previous GTA games (they don't actually ''die'', they just end up in the hospital fully recovered)
:*All editions of the game will include a double-sided map of Los Santos
:*Both weapons and cars will be "very customizable"
:*The Xbox 360 version will be 2 discs, with Disc 1 being a first-time install-only disc and Disc 2 being the gameplay disc, while the PlayStation 3 version will be one disc and will automatically install the same way the Xbox 360 version does, both requiring 8GB of space
:*A gameplay trailer and information on [[Grand Theft Auto Online]] will be coming soon; Rockstar will not confirm nor deny a PC version as well as next gen versions
:*There will be new and stronger anti-cheating measures online
:*Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 gameplay will be identical
:*There ''will not'' be another delay and the 17 September release date still stands
