When Will Rockstar Release GTA V Single Player DLC?

Rockstar is rather quiet about its future plans, and doesn’t detail them until it deems it necessary







GTA 5 has been out for almost two years now, and there is still no word on when Rockstar will release the first story DLC for the game.



Apart from a rumor, thanks to Franklin’s in-game voice actor Shawn Fonteno, there is no concrete evidence on when the add-on will release. Prior to GTA V’s release, the development team of Rockstar found themselves in a massive challenge to develop multiplayer heists.

The heists took Rockstar far more time than they’d have initially expected, but as usual, Rockstar did not compromise on quality with Online Heists.

The developer has a long tradition of releasing some of the finest DLC packs to date. Both GTA 4 add-ons were received with great response, and the same can be said about "Red Dead Redemption"’s DLC, Undead Nightmare.

The positive thing for fans right now is that Rockstar does not wait for events such as E3 and Gamescom to announce its plans. The main reason behind this is that the developer already has so much popularity that it does not need a dedicated event to announce its future plans.

It will also be exciting to see whether the single player DLC will hit previous gen consoles. Rockstar has already confirmed that DLC packs in the distant future may not appear on the last gen consoles. However, PS3 and Xbox 360 users may feel cheated given that the game was originally released for those systems.


Rockstar has done a good job maintaining its quality with GTA Online. However it has all rights to prolong a quality title like GTA 5. It could do this either by carrying forward the story of the three beloved protagonists, or bringing in new characters like it did with "Ballad of Gay Tony" and "The Lost Damned".

GTA fans will have to wait for the day when GTA 5 DLC is announced. Rockstar, unlike other developers, is rather quiet about its future plans, and doesn’t detail them until it deems it necessary.
