GTA V DLC revolving around Trevor Phillips was shelved by Rockstar due to the unprecedented success of GTA Online, which had become a massive revenue generator, a former Rockstar developer has claimed this week.

Fans who have played or are still grinding GTA V have long been disappointed that the best-selling game never really got any DLC similar to GTA IV‘s iconic The Lost and Damned or The Ballad of Gay Tony expansion packs. And, in what may be a sting to many gamers, it was actually on the menu for a while before GTA Online exploded in popularity.
