We appreciate the support and continued enthusiasm for the legacy Rockstar Games catalogue, and sincerely apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused."įirst up, Grand Theft Auto 5 is completely unaffected, as it doesn’t use the service.

Unfortunately, it will be necessary to bid farewell to certain online features in older games. "The majority of changes will be in the form of Rockstar Social Club services, including stat tracking and leaderboards. "While Grand Theft Auto V is unaffected, our teams are currently working to patch specific older titles to keep the transition as smooth as possible and minimize the impact on online-enabled play and your in-game experience," the studio said. Rockstar has revealed on its website the different changes that its fans can expect from their games on May 31, when GameSpy goes offline.

Unfortunately, quite a lot of older games, besides GTA 5, relied on the GameSpy service to interact with the Social Club, and the upcoming closure of GameSpy servers will affect quite a lot of them.

Rockstar has routed the online features of its many different games through the Social Club, its own service for stat tracking, group management, and other such things. Rockstar Games has released a statement about the upcoming closure of the GameSpy multiplayer services and how they affect the online features of its different games, from Max Payne 3 to Grand Theft Auto 4, Red Dead Redemption, Midnight Club Los Angeles, and more.
