Take-Two forces to cancel the project that was going to bring GTA V to Android natively
We had recently seen how the developer community was making ports of the popular game GTA V. A game that has been and continues to be a super success in sales and is available for a multitude of consoles and devices. As if they were not few, the community developers were working on ports that would bring this game to other consoles where its launch has not been possible for some reason, such as the Android mobile operating system.k But Take-Two has forced the developers to cancel the project.
Take-Two sues the group that worked on the ports of GTA V for Android and Nintendo Switch
Take-Two has sued Paralympics Productionsthe group in charge of running the Ports natively of Grand Theft Auto V on Android and Nintendo Switch. Reason why the leader who calls himself M0jso, has stated that The group will close as of October 3 and that the development will be canceled without the possibility of continuing under the direction of other developers.
A situation that occurs after the launch of a native port for the original Nintendo Switcha console that never saw this game receive from Take-Two. The internet had also echoed the news with the intentions of bringing this same game to Android nativelywith the possibility of running on Arm processors without the need for emulators.
The native port of GTA V for Android will not continue after Take-Two’s request
But a statement from the company has made Paralympics Productions make this drastic decision, although the document has not been published. Yes, I had specified that Take-Two had requested the cease and desist of this projectwith solid grounds to fulfill your request.
On the other hand, since the source codeit is unlikely that other developers will take over and continue with this project. M0jso has also commented that source code will not be publishedsince after this request it may imply new legal actions for him and his team.
Unfortunately this decision has been made after the announcement of a new version where performance had been improvedand that it was just a few days away from its launch. It seems that, if we want to play GTA V on Android deviceswe’ll have to wait for Take-Two to release an official version, if that ever happens.
