We know almost nothing about GTA 6, but reports suggest it’s already entered pre-production. Rockstar’s latest entry has gone on to sell 60 million copies worldwide across all platforms, this includes the recent ports for PS4 and Xbox One. GTA 5 remains the fastest selling title in videogame history, earning a staggering $1 billion in its first 24 hours of release. With Red Dead Redemption 2 launching in Spring 2018 the chances of seeing a new Grand Theft Auto any time soon on are slim. Still, that doesn’t mean fans aren’t eager to find out news of a potential GTA 6. Grand Theft Auto 5 has been around since September 2013, but is still insanely popular thanks to the continued GTA Online updates. Grand Theft Auto | RockStarGames [18 January, 2018. It could be like how The Crew managed to cover the entire US and turned it into a navigable map that takes an hour and a half in real time to drive from one end to the other.Ĭould this be what’s in store for us in GTA 6? We can only hope. We reckon GTA 6 might just feature multiple US locations with the distances between each one cut down considerably. We’d advise that you take this with a large pinch of salt though, as we doubt you need to take that 100 per cent literally. With the rumoured release date tipped to lie somewhere in 2020 (we know, that feels like a million years away), apparently Rockstar is using that time to recreate the entire country. According to a new rumour, Rockstar Games could be trying to recreate the entire of the US with GTA 6, rather than just a single city. The latest GTA 6 gossip though is about the sheer size of the GTA 6 map. Plus we have some things – stuff, DLC, I don’t know how to describe it exactly – that we’d like to do, and we’ll pick the right ones.” There ain’t no rest between finishing 5 and then Online. “We’ve got about 45 years’ worth of ideas we want to do. The game started life around 5 years ago, but was only in full production for three of those. It’s also worth remembering that by the end of GTA 4’s lifecycle, Rockstar had already conceived some broad ideas about what GTA 5 would be. The map and story get worked up together, and the story is a basic flow of how it works out so you can layer the mission in.” Then that defines the missions you’re doing different things in LA than in New York or Miami. Where it is going to be set is the first question. “We don’t know what GTA 6 will be, but we’ve got some ideas”, said Benzies in an interview with Develop.Īlthough it’s far from concrete confirmation of what development stage the game is at, Benzies did give us a few insights into how the idea process starts. That means we could be in for a change of voice for GTA 6, something that was indicated by reports that the story was rebooted after Houser left, which surfaced in November 2021.Įxactly how that would manifest is hard to guess at, but it's an interesting development for Rockstar, that's for sure.The first official whiff of information about GTA 6 came from Rockstar President Leslie Benzies, who teased that the game is in very early stages of development. On the other, if he was on his way out it's very possible that he wasn't nearly so involved. Now, on the one hand, given the likely timing of the game, there's a good chance that Dan Houser was able to have solid input and impact on the script and story before his departure. That means that one of the studio's key tastemakers and writers has departed, someone who, together with his brother Sam, has shaped the franchise's tone from the very beginning. A crucial bit of information when it comes to GTA 6's narrative is that Rockstar's co-founder, Dan Houser, left the studio in March 2020. The main story of each GTA game so far has involved criminality, as a rule, but the exact flavour is always up for change. We can expect the game to push technical boundaries, too, and it will apparently stick to the more photorealistic graphics of GTA 5 rather than going for anything more stylised, according to a recent rumour. Again, evidence from the September 2022 leak seems to confirm this. That detail was corroborated by Jason Schreier in that same Bloomberg report in July 2022, a long time later, along with the information that the female protagonist will be Latina, one half of a pair inspired by Bonnie and Clyde. The info comes courtesy of Tom Henderson, a longtime leaker who's made accurate claims in the past. Meanwhile, rumours have also circulated that the game's character roster will include a female playable character for the first time in the series, something that's long overdue in our minds. This was backed up by the September 2022 leak, too. In a big Bloomberg report in July 2022, we got the information that the game is indeed set in Rockstar's version of Miami, a simpler answer than all the sleuthing above.
