Grand Theft Auto 4 is a computer game that is widely expected to be released by Rockstar Games at some point during 2006 or 2007. Although yet to be officially announced, speculation and rumours about the game are rife. Several statements and actions made by Rockstar staff would appear to support these. Grand Theft Auto 4 will actually be the tenth title in the Grand Theft Auto series, but is anticipated to be built on an entirely new next-gen hardware platform, the Xbox 360. It is possible that the game will be set in an entirely separate plot/locale to its predecessors. PSM and CVG magazines have suggested that the game will be officially unveiled at this year's E3 show and will be a PlayStation 3 exclusive.[1] But at E3 2006, at the microsoft Press Conference, it was announced, to the shocked spectaters, that GTA4 would be exclusive to Xbox 360.

At the 360 Conference it was announced that GTAIV will be out on the X-Box 360

Known facts

The domain names grandtheftauto4.com and GTA4.com were registered by Sam Houser, president of Rockstar Games.
Sam Houser stated that San Andreas was to mark the end of the GTA III trilogy, which suggests that the next release will be called GTA4. Since San Andreas, two PSP GTA games have been announced. The first PSP game, Liberty City Stories, has been released. The next installment, yet to be named, is believed by gamers to be taking place in Carcer City, the same city in which Manhunt was set. It is not yet known whether the second PSP title will be the last in the GTA III era or part of the GTA IV era. Due to the second PSP title being an "all new" title (as quoted in a press statement by Take-Two Interactive), it is possible it could be part of the GTA IV era.
Sam Houser was quoted praising the new Playstation 3 on May 17, 2005 when the console was unveiled.
Several European magazine articles have originally claimed that the next GTA would take place in London, Manchester or Mexico City.
